...not quite sure why you would feel the need to say that as your choice of clothing is far from shocking or overtly sexual

Well, no, it is not, but some people think my taste in clothing is so extreme or so revealing.
I do sometimes wear much stranger clothes than that, sometimes I wear a venetian eye mask.
Anyway, though, people comment a lot on how I dress, so I thought I would explain that it is not because of the attention, but because of what I am comfortable with.
Also, I can say that that top is very transparent, so people would react a lot if I went out like that, but that was at home, I usually would put a sweater and a long black coat on going out.
Anyway, though, I kind of made the picture blurrier, so my nipples would not show so much.

...so after you tell us that is isn't a "sexy" outfit you feel the need to tell us just how revealing it is?

Lol there is nothing wrong with i mean..here you would probably get indecent exposure for the top piece though so might need to wear a bra under it. If you are comfortable with it then screw what others think. You have a nice body by the way.

Gross.
I voted deathrock/badass. Haha. On more than one occasion I've been called a badass even though I'm pretty far from it. I also get mistaken for a punk, too. True story:
Guy I don't know after reading my jacket: "Wow. You don't get many punks who listen to Bauhaus."
My friend: "He's not a punk. He's just a badass. Lookit 'em."

Being called a punk is good. But I always tell them "I'm not a punk unless I'm doing something for the community" or something similar.

That's hard. I prefer the cyber and the bondage and the death metal/bad ass look.
Then again I have to combine all 3 since all 3 describe me to an extent.

Death metal look doesn't look baddass. It looks like a lonely fat fan of Runescape wanting to feel tough by wearing horrible makeup.
Then again, this is just generalizations and personal bias; but how is death metal baddass in any way?

there is only 1 death metal band i am a huge fan of. they dont have fancy make up or clothing they just wear black and have these leather bracers. Amon Amarth. They are vikings and lyrics describe viking life and glory it is so awesome, its death metal because viking life consists of taking your enemies head off and burning their village

Not fair. I'm kind of mixed for Victorian/bondage, or Visual Kei/Bondage, it depends on how I'm feeling, and...Well if I have the money for it. I like to look nice, and feel bad ass about it, but still feel classy as well.

Well there's Pete Steele in Carnivore bad ass. But then again maybe Carnivore wasn't so much death metal by that standard.
Then again if you are talking death metal like Cradle Of Filth they're tasty...at least Dani Filth is.
Now if you mean Death metal ala those with "growlers" yeah, fat lonely hairy fans of runescape...mostly.

I'm not a fan of growling, and I actually kind of like Dimmu Borgir's style, admittedly I am not a huge death metal fan. When it comes to metal, well, I like metal from "back in the day".

I never really listened to the lyrics myself. I've only caught snippets of their stuff. The use of satanism or satanic stuff as a crucible to mold ones music in doesn't necessarily bother me unless it's with the intent just to "look cool" or "sound cool", at least believe the shit your saying otherwise move on.

I usually go with the leather and PVC look. A bunch of spiked wristbands and a studded collar. Also, rather big boots.

When I was younger I did the black T and jeans thing. Then I got a job and bought some victorian robes. Next I lost my job, lost weight, and gave my dresses to a friend. When that happened I altered some clothes I bought from the local thrift store into sexy dark wear. I have a job now and I'm filling up my wardrobe with anything I like so victorian, pleather, sexy, and whatever are there now.

I would have to say that while I dabble in many different styles, at the core I'm a graver (which I think is a really dumb name but a very fun style)

lol What you mean rather big? i didnt think they were that big, they were the smallest size that fit me. I dont know about victorian look how well that would go on guys i havnt seen too many guys wear victorian anyhow. I wouldnt mind a slight victorian touch i might try but i wouldnt want to look like i came out of some history book.

Personally I like both the dark and seductive style and the Victorian. I like the dark reds and black. I also like dark purples and blues. I like the lace and skirts.
That's my personal choice.
