No, goths won't hurt you.  Don't you watch the news, its the seemingly normal people who do the crazy things.  As for gothic culture, being goth has nothing to do with what clothes you wear or music you listen to, it is a way of thinking and seeing the world. The clothes that goths wear and the music that goths listen to is just a reflection of that mindset. Goths see that there is extreme pain and evil in the world, along with the good. Instead of condemning it or ignoring it, goths accept these things as a part of life and try and enjoy the good along with the bad, since they can't stop the bad from happening. They are not obsessed with death, they just accept it as an inevitability. They do not try and cause more pain in their (or anybody else's) lives, since there is plenty to start with.  Goths tend to be kind, intelligent, non-violent, emotional, and artistic.

If you'd really like to know what goth is, go to goth.net and read the 'What is goth?' bit. Emo kids can have whatever length hair they want as far as I know. Also, Amy Lee is more Nu-Metal than anything else. If you'd like a list of postpunk or goth songs, I could e-mail you one.

If you really want to know, go to Wikipedia. Also, goth came from punk. They do, thus, have many shared musical and aesthetic tendencies.

I understand goth.net has a poetry section. Have you read Edgar Allan Poe or Dylan Thomas, or Dorothy Parker?

But Your shoes must be NEW ROCKS they have some of the best gothic/alternative shoe colections it would also be a good i dee to look at there corsets, leather jackets, belts, shin guards.

Goth is a subculture with cultural music, dress, commonly accepted religion and social beliefs. Often misunderstood and mislabled. Was one out in SF. One of the best times of my life so far. Very tolerant and accepting culture.

They like music about feelings---which is what mainly sets them apart from goths. Ususlly if they are true Emos they will dye their hair black and make a patch of red. Thats usually the best way to distinguish them from normal people.

No, of course not. I see questions like yours every day or other, and it's just because gothic subculture is something you don't know about. Don't worry about it; there is good and bad in goth, like every subculture everywhere. Here: try visiting net.goth, and click on the column on the left that says 'goth?' for a good explanation. I've answered questions like yours before, and made lists of gothic music and traits. If you look under my Best Answers you can find a lot of information on music goths like and lots of other good stuff. Wish you the best of luck.

Gothic is just a label.  There are nice goths and mean ones, just like every other group.  Most of the ones I know are nice.\n\nYes, you can be gothic an believe in God.  I know a couple of Christian goths, including a very devout Catholic.

Hee hee, that's so true.  For teens who dress goth, without understanding what goth is all about, it's just a fad that represents rebellion against normal fashion.  Truth is, real goths don't care about standing out, they just want to be themselves, and they're not rebelling against the system.  It think the spooky kids just dress that way to piss of their parents, which teen "punks", "hippies", and "greasers" probably did in past generations.  It doesn't do any harm, but in hindsight it's silly.

Goth is not a religion. Gothic is a time period that coincides with the victorian era. It`s also a design theme that involves the use of dark, rich colours and elaborate, intricate details.  And it so happens that a lot of wiccans dress in the gothic style. But that doesn`t mean everyone that dresses Goth is wiccan. It`s usally a choice of dress and they can practice ANY Religion.
