The Devil's Whores! I love 'em!
Sweet whiskey sour, it's lesbian goth wank!
That's right kids, it starts as an innocent thread on the Shoujo-Ai forums for people to post goth lesbian anime pics (now we're gettin' specifyin'). Of course not everyone likes the goth look, and people feel the need to say so, and other people feel the need to accuse the first people of making sweeping generalizations while, you guessed it, making sweeping generalizations.
Self-righteousness, pseudo-intellectualism and of course a lot of hot anime chicks ensue. Choice quotes:
How flattering: As for Goth Lesbians, I see them as The Devil's Whores or the Love of Darkness, total... turn on...
::cries:: I wanna see Lesbians in Public!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Poser is a lifestyle choice, dammit!: Goth culture has nothing to do with wearing chains and leather. Most don't even know why it is that we all wear black. Well, black is not official a color, it's a mixture of all the other colors. Basically the message is, i am you and everything else combined, simply meaning-nature. Real Gothic's are wiccans. (trust me) The rest are just posers (there is nothing wrong with posers by the way, so keep those flames away from me )
Everything you know is wrong: White and black are brightness levels of any hue, any hue from red-orange-yellow-green-blue-violet (the colors visible to the human eye, hence infrared and ultraviolet) raised to a certain brightness looks white, and down to a certain darkness looks black (ever notice how black clothes will fade into another color like brown/blue?). Maybe "brightness" isnt the technically correct word, but you get what I mean. Black and White have nothing to do with mixes of colors.
Well, one's the opposite of the other, for starters: What's the difference between posers and non-posers?
You're all posers IMO. Trying to dress like if it was halloween everyday...
Right up there with the Goddess-worship: Is that a loophole in wiccan rules of karma? (If it's passive-aggressive, it's ok to be negative?)
I'll let my icon do the talking: I, myself, like to think of myself as a bit more enlightened then the genral population (considering that it takes the general population to get a republican in the whitehouse) enlightened is a bit different then inteligent though. I write an editorial for the school newspaper just about every month on current politics, I like to conjure up 15 page essays on my views of the world, but am I doing this all to prove im "deep"? No, not really.
I see the light, I will never discriminate again: If someone's born having a taste and fondness for Abrocombi and Fitch then they'er going to ware it, right?
And there are three more pages of it! O happy day!
Big public lesbian snogs to kabukikatze of LJ for finding this for me. Rawr. (We're not Goth, but I dressed as one once for Halloween--not that there's anything WRONG with being a poser.)
