emo goth

emo kid: "After school I am going to emo goth to cut myself and get my ass kicked by people who are less of pussies than me, that almost includes everyone."

Goth kid: Black and darkness give me a boner. I am so much less of a pussy than any emo kid.

glam goth

The glam goth style is a sub to the goth style.
Like the goths they still are, glam goths pefer black over colour, but can allow a little white or even some red or velvet in their wardrobe.
Easily seen as just vain goths, that's also mostly what they are; they look more after the style of their hair, might wear more spikes, more thoughtfully torn chlothes (stupid as it sounds) etc.
Male and female glam goths look a lot alike, but the female might cross towards the gotic lolita look, where as the male easily cross over to the black version of steriotype gay clothing.

I have found that as a glam goth, you are more at war with punks then as a scrap-goth. Or, more precisally, punks are more at war with you.
My friend Jeff keeps going on about how Brian Molko is the only public glam goth.

goth

Goth, although once an expression of individuality, is now a commercial image sold by big business. They now have shops such as Emily the Strange that promote and sell the goth image. If you shop at such places you are buying something that everyone can have and probably does have. Ergo, you are not a true goth who wishes to be individual.

Goth, as well as many other social groups, is a box that people are put in so we can organise society. People are labelled to make it easier for others to relate to them. I exhibit many chracteristics of a goth (outlook of the world, sense of humour ect,) but am I one? No. This is because I choose not to buy into a commercial image that has been ruined by our "friends" big business and lemming teenagers.

So, if we follow this philosiphy, everyone who calls themself a goth is a poser and everyone who dresses like a goth is just buying into a commercial entity and is therefore a sellout and a poser.
Goth: I'm so individual I dress and act just like all my friends because society tells me to.

goth

goth is a word made up by people who need a name for stuff. people who are considered goth tend to wear alot of black, white, red, and purple. other colors are welcomed. i hate that people think goths are evil. my absolute best friend in the world is a goth and she ROCKS. she loves the ramones, afi, and the dropkick murphy's. she wears bondage pants(pants with alot of chains and straps), t shirts about add, family guy, and invader zim, nd friggin awesome hoodies. it is a very complementary look, as black tends to be, and i loooove it! i do not fit under a label, though some stupid people call it emo. yeah. i dont even wear alot of black. but if i was to choose a style, i would choose gothic (or grunge, but anyway...), because it looks the best on people and it shocks. of course, their are scary goths, like the satan worshipping, hex giving , evil goths, but .. i like em. lol. but, you just have to get to know someone before you label them, if thats what u plan on doing. i mean, yeah. my bff(as mentioned earlier) actually speaks to preps. one of em is a good friend who likes abercrombie and backflips. yeah. gothic people(and emos, in general) are very open minded(usually) and are not quick to judge, even when others are quick to judge them.
goth: i love you
me: omg i love you too
paris hilton: thats hot.

lol i just wanted to say that

designer goth

person who dresses up in the stereotype "goth" form, but usually isn't actually a goth. They just pretend to be in order to fit in with a group or impress someone.

They wear all black clothing, long BLACK fishnet shirts, huge black studded/metal boots, neon or black fishnet tights (for girls), long, wavy black skirts usually with rips (girls), major studded belts, dye their hair black and grow it super long, wear black lipstick, black eyeshadow, and black eyeliner HEAVILY all together, paint nails black, wear pagan type necklaces and accessories of the sort just to seem like they're really into this.

Basically they are one of the largest wannabe.
1: "Look at Kailey, she's such a designer goth!"
": "mmmhmm, I'll bet she doesn't even know a single metal band or anything about the goth culture....such a poser!"
