Calling yourself a Goth in the terms of a "culture" is being a hypocrite. One should not waste their time with such labels and just be themselves. You can like things of a Gothic nature but that does not mean they have to call yourself a Goth. Goths sometimes attempt to call themselves individuals when they are just conforming to another trend, it is an utterly pointless label. I like my bed, does not mean I have to conform to some sort of 'duvet-bandits' crew.

someone who wasn't hugged enough as a child.
goths like to pretend they were unfairly outcasted by society, when in reality they are socially inept and intolerant of most mainstream culture. they think that people who enjoy things such as mtv are brainwashed idiots instead of realizing that goths themselves are the ones who are trying too hard to fit the mold of a stereotype. goths also like to pretend that they, at heart, are more approachable and make better friends than your average prep because they're "intelligent", when in reality they use their pseudo-intellectual bullshit as an excuse to put themselves on a pedestal and act like they're so much greater than the rest of the world.

goth - "you laugh at me because i'm different, but i laugh at you because you're all the same"
normal person - "right, because you and all your friends don't dress exactly alike and listen to the same shitty music."

(adjective)
Once whom is a "goth" is off-set onto many different definitions.
Stereotype goths, such as the people whom work at and/or shop at Hot Topic, are the standard of what one what think as a goth. Your stereotypical goth usually consists of....
-Listening to Heavy Metal
-Wears a LOT of chains/spikes
-Dresses in all black
-Hate anything colorful
-Write (not very good) poetry
-Idolizes "Jack" from The Nightmare Before Christmas
-Do numerous drugs
Not all goths are like this, but many goths hate to socialize outside of their sub-society. Not all goths are miserable. But those whom do may not know why.And some goths only use their label as an excuse to use the Goth fashion.
In all, there are just as many good things about goths as there are bad things.

Not all Goths are bad people. But some goths are just there to make us REAL miserable people look bad.

Let's say what's not Goth!
Emo is not Goth; emo bands are bands that are angsty and emotional like Fall out boy, silverstein, rites of spring and falling in reverse; Emo wasn't dark in any way until My Chemical Romance started making their fashion darker.
Death metal bands such as Cannibal Corpse is not Goth; death metal is metal so if it looks very gory and they're band name is chaotic or violent like "Mayhem" or "Slayer" it's Extreme Metal, Not Gothic Rock!
One metal stereotype that gets confused with Goth a lot is what I call black metal: bands that sound really heavy and satanic, wear corpse paint, bullet belts and satanic crosses and stars, stereo typically this group is also blamed for church burnings.
So what is Goth?
Goth is wearing pale make up, black clothes, fishnets (if one wants to), and listening to a genre called post punk such as The Cure, Sisters Of Mercy and Siouxsie & The Banshees.
Goth is not Evil.

Black Metal: "I'm gonna listen to Mayhem and be Satanic"
Emo: "I'm gonna listen to Fall out Boy and draw anime"
Goth: "I'm gonna listen to The Cure and drink coffee"
