1)Someone who wears Gothic attire, acts like a true emo person, and listens to gothic and rock music.
2)Loooking Emo and Gothic, listening to gothic and rock music, acting fun and energetic.

Gothic people are just like everyone else. They just express them selves differently. Just because they don't look the same as you and me doesn't mean that they are crazy or anything. They are normal healthy people and should just have the chance to talk to people different from them if they want it without being looked at like a freak, or treated like a jerk.

A fat Gothic boy/girl who eats their emotions and has either no friends or very few friends.They like spending their time complaining, eating, crying, cutting, studying, or sitting on their fat ass.

I have to admit I've read all the "gothic" entry's and some of them are so out there is is unbelievable! And they are so different from eachother! Who is to say what is "gothic" and what is not? These are some notes I've gained watching "gothic" people and their friends (me).

1. Gothic is a steriotype and it shouldn't be. Some gothic people worship false gods and the devil, but I know some who worship God and are christians. Just like all christians are different so are gothics.
2. Gothic is not a religion. If gothic were a religion they would all be WORSHIPING the same thing! Get a clue!
3. Gothics are nice people. Some people think gothics are weird and mean, but they're not.Yes some are, but aren't some "jocks" mean and "class presidents" Stop steriotyping them to be mean and totally suicidal. They're NOT!
4. Gothics dress in black because that is what they like. Some people dress in all pink, but you don't think those "princesses" are weird. Also black happens to be a very cool color and if you are in love with it good for you.
5. Gothics have a mind and are not simply death orented, bloodthirsty, suicidal, depresed robots! Yes some gothics like death, but so do other people, death is a way to be reborn and freed. Also, some like blood and drink it, but that doesn't make them gothic. I am fasinated with blood, am I gothic?! Also, some are sucidal and depressed, but so are some of our most loved celebertys! Get a grip!

In conclusion gothic is simply what so...

1-The real defonition of gotic is:
of, relating to, or having the characteristics of a style of architecture developed in northern France and spreading through western Europe from the middle of the 12th century to the early 16th century that is characterized by the converging of weights and strains at isolated points upon slender vertical piers and counterbalancing buttresses and by pointed arches and vaulting;
2- A time period involved with midivila times.
3-Gothic is often mistaken for a person that asociates themselves with darkness by wearing black, painting there nails balck, dying there hair, creative colors. In realty, these "gothics" are normal, they just dislike being the same or "following the crowd" so they separte themselves by being different.

children. grow the fuck up. gothic people are rather intelligent human beings and no, they dont slit their wrists. you're getting that confused with emo;another one of the generic, unecessary subcultures that people make up to feel loved in their crowd of look-a-likes.

Ok, so...
Alot of people are getting the wrong idea about what being gothic really means.
There are many ways to describe it.
1. It's a type of music. Gothic rock usually contains a dark, yet somehow sweet sound. And, most goths I know (including myself) listen to all types of music. But, also like me prefer to listen to metal.

2. I just have to point this out: Goth is NOT a religion.
Just because you're gothic, it doesn't mean you worship Satan and blah blah blah.
Even though most people involved in gothic culture are not believers of God, I do know Christian goths.

3. There is also a style of dress that comes with gothic lifestyle. Yes, most goths do wear black. (Personally, I'm a HUGE fan of corsets and such...) But we do wear color too. Take cybergoths for examlpe. ^.^ You can catch them wearing the coolest outfits that include many neon colors and such. Different shades of purples, reds, blues, and even greens are popular among goths.
There is much more to be said...but I know some are probably bored at this moment...
Thanks, and enjoy.
