kindergoth

A Goth Girl who is under age 14. Not a label for a brain-dead follow-my-leader girl - a kindergoth does the whole Goth thing with a touch of irony yet listens to Wagner and reads Gormenghast too.

(Minor alternative use: name used by some immature 'mature' goths to deride young 'new goths'. Kindergoth is used by them as an equivalent to 'newbie' or 'plastic punk').

See also: babygoth, baby-bats, kinderwhore, pixie.

"Gloom County's resident kindergoth reads a lot of Sandman."

babydyke

Used in most Western lesbian sub-cultures.

A lesbian girl who looks, or who actually is, younger than age 18. Babydykes are usually quite femme (ie: feminine looking & acting) but will often have short hair, and some can be baby bulldykes (ie: hyper-masculine lesbians).

"The other two dykes just came out - one is a complete babydyke, while the other has been watching and learning - she's butching up and won't be a babydyke long."

"These 'experimental' art-videos are so opaque and self-indulgent they fairly scream 'self-financed by a 15 year-old babydyke schoolgirl'".

Flitterati
