Welcome to Gaia! ::

I don't think she;s trying to prover her gothieness at all. However, she is trying to make her friend realize that most of the negative sterotypes about goths are inaccurate.


Anyways, on to sorinchako's problem!

I wouldn't suggust that you get overly defensive about your position, nor get up in C's face. Perhaps the issue would be best if let be.

However, if you do want to try to get rid of her miscinceptions, then bring the issue up casually in conversation, and try to convince her that her ideas about what goth is happen to be misguided. Perhaps give her glimpses of gothic culture... the diverse music, the amazing fashions, gothic literature from Hawthorne,Poe, Radcliffe, and others, etc.

Screw Her!...surry, But I have a friend like that and she's even worse!...she likes to get in my face about why I'm supposedly not Emo or Goth or whatever the ******** people call me...at least you can get away with hitting her in the head with something, my "friend "is a Black belt...and she thinks that I have a ********' problem because I'm all depressed that I got Banned from VTMB(Vampire the Masquerade-Bloodlines) and that I'm satonic and only honer Caine, Satan, and Marilyn Manson...I'm just happy my high school is so complex so that I hardly see her now...I practically Renaimed Myself Manah BlackHeart Manson now!...*sigh*I assure you, I know how you feel!...but, why would we need to do drugs? and more importantly, your friend practically said that if we're Goths, we're Sluts! EXCuse Me?! I my have my eye on a few corsets and other things as such but that ma friend does not make me a slut!...My Drama Teacher wear Corsets, does that make her a slut?...nuuuuuu...so I suggest you give you friend a few Damn good Smacks accross the face while I go find a Guillotine biggrin ...
