Yeah, I’d describe Lulu as ‘regal’ rather than ‘goth’. I think the clothes are just there for the obvious reasons, rather than to make her look goth-y.
ya know… the type of clothing she wears… the colour of her lipstick… makes her look rather gothy.
I would like to formally change my vote to princess sara from FF1…
Wearing dark clothing doesn’t make you goth. She has purple lipstick and dark features altogether. her dress isn’t completely black and she has <i>style</i> in her design. No offence to anyone, but every goth I’ve seen in my entire life so far is incredibly unclassy looking. Dress with TACT, plz. And Lulu contradicts their horrible image with her…nice image.
Despite your experiences and perception, Eva, goths aren’t are “unclassy” or whatever you seem to think they are. You just haven’t met any real goths.
There cloathing says “Death and darkness” but their body says “YEAH I WANT THAT NUMBER 4 SUPER SIZED!” or at least from my experience.
Lulu
Goth or not
No matter what
I swear to God
She is really hot!
Hey, did that rhyme? It wasn’t my intention. And this is last time i am using her picture. Promise.
Real or not, from my point of view, their clothes are trashy. The ones I’ve SEEN of course.
o.o wow, i’ve known many different versions of goth within the main goth group. I can’t imagine being exposed only to trashy goth. I’ve been considered goth at least a few times… though I think I’m more geek than goth.
I think my favorite sort of goth is the psycho faction. They’re just funny… but in a dark way.
Oh, should I try to stay on topic? hmm… the hottest chick from ff… uh, I’ll go with Faris… cause she’s a pirate… and she’s got purple hair.
Haiku
Lulu is quite hot
But is she a goth, or not
She has big, big boobs.
the REAL goths sacked rome, and i dont believe they are around anymore…
As for what i have seen… they like to pretend to be baddasses, and have things like nipple piercings. not sure by what you mean by “real” goth though. If the majority you have witnessed ate the same, then dont that make them REAL ? I mean, shouldnt the lack lipstick be the only make up a goth should wear ? why the pasty face-paint ? arent they supposed to have REAL moon-tans ? i think, in the end, it ends up being “who is goth, and who is a poser”. Are you really expressing your inside through your fashion, or trying to conform to a popular fashion to get attention ? “look at me, i have nipplie piercings…” or “man… these nipple piercings hurt… lovely… twist twiist euphoria !”
LAST THOUGHT: I dont give a damn about fashion, or how people dress or make themselves look. I go by the look in peoples eyes, and their body posture, physique, and if i watch them long enough, the choices they make. That’s all that really counts in the long run.
Oh please, how many times have I heard that before? A goth is someone who wears black everything, dyes their hair black even if it’s naturally black, wears spike wristbands and is generally really whiney. Any other definition is just flowery beating around the bush bullshit that people use to defend an excessively pathetic lifestyle.
And no, goths do NOT have style, and definately don’t have class.
And Hades hits the nail on the head. He wins.
For example:
Goth.net, which I’m assuming is a pretty significant resource on GOTHS, defined goths in such broad terms that the word “goth” could be synonymous with “person.”
This is the kind of flowery bullshit I was referring to. The goth subculture is clearly defined, it does NOT have blurry edges. In fact, according to this site, the only PERMANENT attribute of a goth is black clothing. I’d say that’s a pretty narrow subculture.
Sorry, but your “real” classy goths aren’t goths at all, since goths are required by definition to wear trashy clothing.
Unless you’re one of the people who defines goths as such:
Noble free-thinkers? Always rejected? Pretends to be on a higher level of insight such that they can see beyond societal standards and are therefore magically endowed with the knowledge to create a perfectly utopian world?
Jee, where have I seen these traits before? Oh, right! Every self-proclaimed messiah who has ever existed. In other words, once again this definition encompasses humanity in it’s entirety, and doesn’t define goths whatsoever.
Find me a definition of goth that describes traits unique to goths other than trashy black clothing. And good luck, it pretty much can’t be done.
Hades, stop being an asshole.
Also, explain how black means the same thing as trashy.
It doesn’t. I’ve never seen a goth go around wearing a black sweater he got for christmas though. It’s always shiney leather pants, dyed, dead looking hair, icky black eye shadow, pale facepaint, lipstick, and nailpolish, etc.
Black is good in moderation, but when you’re borderline immitating a dominatrix circus clown, I can’t think of anything less classy.
Class is a clean, crisp look and attitude that implies personal integrity. Goth is a crude style that implies insecurity and self-inflicted alienation, and that is extremely unattractive.
And I’m not trying to be an asshole. I’m just losing patience for people who claim that lifestyle is some profound misunderstood thing with false stereotypes merely to convince THEMSELVES that they’re not just another pathetic drone who fits nicely into any given stereotype. Most things, are, indeed, exactly what they apear to be. Subcultures aren’t some big fucking illusory magic show.
Goth is just an image, I don’t know why they overload it with insane crap like that. But i guess I’m a goth because I’ve been spurned by society by living my life differently.
All people are secretly Goths, just like all women are secretly lesbians.
Or how all men secretly wank and pee in the shower. Oh wait, that’s no secret!
That would also make me a goth, but I have very little black in my wardrobe, except a couple of rugby fleeces.
