I didn't say you were a mallgoth. You completely misunderstood me. What I am saying is you don't need to be goth to like the macabre. It's that simple, you can listen to whatever music you want, still like the macarbe and not be goth, and IT WON'T mean you are somehow any less.
I don't call myself goth, I don't care about it, yet I don't have any problem having Gothic interests or dressing in a "dark" manner.
As soon as you stop caring about the word goth and just be yourself, it won't matter if someone calls you a poser because you will know it is simply not so. How can you be a poser if you are just being yourself right?
Here is another thing. So what someone told you it's wrong to have a black room, or that your decorations are over the top? Who are they to decided? IT'S YOUR ROOM, it's your life and just because this random person on the internet calls themselves goth does not give them ANY power whateso ever. You said it yourself, they have NO idea how you act, and you are very right to say so.
You are you, you like what you like, you don't need a word to define you because you have just as much right as anyone else to be interested in what EVER it is you desire.
Goth is not a power word. Period.
