EGL (Elegant Gothic Lolita) and EGA (Elegant Gothic Aristocrat) are terms coined by Mana, previously of the Japanese Visual band Malice Mizer.
Elegant Gothic Lolita refers to the fashion of frilly, ruffled knee-length dresses, and ruffled headbands, and only refers to females.
Elegant Gothic Aristocrat refers to a more subdued, refined dressing, usually consisting of longer dresses or coats, and can refer to both females and males.
There are different kinds of groups of lolitas in Japan, however EGA is rare and the style is usually up to the individual.

Get the Gothic Lolita mug.I won’t reiterate what others have said about true Goths. However, I will say this. There is one thing I do disagree with that so far I have read in every entry. It is the music. Why do Goths have to listen to certain genres? I thought true Goths are open minded. So why so close minded for the matter of music?
Granted, Marilyn Manson and Simple Plan are not goth, nor punk. That does not mean they can’t be listened to by a goth.

Linkin Park, Simple Plan, Good Charlotte, Marilyn Manson, etc. are not gothic music, but they are musicians.
The 69 Eyes is Gothic Rock, but you can still dislike them and be a goth. I like them, but it doesn't mean someone else does. It just like any type of music, you have to enjoy it to listen to them. Since Goths think for themselves, listening to other genres other than goth is okay.

a person who is a no-face who just tries to fit in with the goth group because they think it's "in".
it's the same deal as a preppy girl who always wears dresses claiming to be a 'tomboy' because she gets sweaty at her cheerleader tryouts. If you have the title Goth, you earn it, it's not just wearing black everyday, it's being different it's keeping the title even through the harsh looks, and the stereotypes.Just because you have a pair of black pants makes you as 'goth' as standing in a garage makes you a car. Not everyone will be gothic, just like not everyone will be a lawer.

Get the GowTham mug.’Goth’ is not about Satan worshipping, scaring people or shocking them. It is a lifestyle, an art. It's beauty, showing people who you are. ‘Goths’ tend to have true depth and insight and an opinion worth listening to. There thoughts are darker and they perceive things differently to how other might do. ‘Goths’ have a way of recognizing the beauty of things that seem so morbid and tragic to others, although anyone can see these things ‘normal people’ usually tend not too.
Someone- That person wears black she must be a goth!
'Goth'- Quit with the fucking labels! I AM JUST ME!
