Ok. I'm sure the answer's lurking somewhere in cyberspace around this site, but I can't seem to find it-- what defines Goth? --Sure, there's the attitude that goes with it and the morbid love of darkness, but this, like most other common beliefs about Goth(s) is a steriotype. Not everyone will conform to your belief of what Goth is, and you'll have your own defenition as well. Having only been on this site for a day or so, I'm still a noob finding my way around and stuff. On other site's I've been on, the hosts have described Goth with great detail and using ambigueous poetry so it seems like more of a concept than anything else. So I wanna know! What do you define Goth as?
