Gothic

                                                           Celebrating the Goth culture




                                        The Goth culture encompasses Emo , Steampunk , Cyber
                                        and classic Goth which started in the late 70s .  It was
                                        inspired by 18th century horror literature such as Dracula
                                        and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein .   Goth also includes music
                                        like The Cure and Bauhaus . Of course I cannot forget
                                        Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre ; also there are poets that
                                        can fit into Goth like Byron .   But over the yrs the Goth
                                       culture has grown adding Halloween and television
                                       programs like Dark Shadows and Penny Dreadful which
                                       displayed racial diversity ; this is something very important
                                       because the Goth culture is and should be inclusive for all .



                                     I have been '' Goth '' since I was very small and fully came
                                     into the scene when I was in middle school ; the music ,
                                     movies like Bram Stokers Dracula and wearing all black
                                     made me the Goth Girl I am today .  Also I have added
                                    the steampunk look ; I am eclectic adding medieval , hippie
                                     and  20s style to make it interesting .   Goth I believe is what
                                    you make it and is often influenced by one's culture because
                                    goths are not just white euro .  Goths come from all over
                                    and all walks of life .   In my opinion , that is how it should be !





                                  Goth Culture celebrates all people who may feel on the outside
                                  and there are no rules about who can or cannot be Goth .
