Noted. But, that doesn't mean I'm going to change the way I prefer to do things. We'll agree to disagree on that; right?

You'll notice that particular part of my reply was in reference to Madarme's comment and it was, in fact, she who was quoted above my remark.

Again, you're stereotyping. I'd think that, as ticked as you get about it, you'd work extra hard not to do it, yourself.
The particular bit I'd hoped you'd note is the fact that there
isn't a definition in there for your subculture. All that's listed there are the world-wide (at least of the English-speaking nations) accepted definitions of the the word "gothic." When one has that fact to work with, one may come to the logical conclusion that "gothic" and "goths" pertain to people who enjoy/what-you-will things associated with the word's actual definitions. So, it's understandable that there'd be issues for the "goths" of the music subculture with misunderstandings of the subculture, itself.
I put forth that "goth" is the least fitting nickname for your particular subculture...and more fitting for mine.
