Am I goth or girly girl? How do I express my goth ness inside if I’m girly now?

[Anonymous]

Grew up girly girl. As a teen was goth.
Why I’m goth:

likes bdsm (in my mind, saving sex for marriage in reality);

am deep;

am emotional;

am secretive;

am creative (I’m an ISFP)

super quiet

loner

mysterious

etc

i respect goths instantly when I see a gothic woman. Instant respect. Period. I don’t think there’s such a thing as a fake goth. It’s coming from a real place if you’re going outside dressed THAT differently. And that expressively. It may not come from the same place as every other goth because it’s individual to each goth really. But trust me. There’s no fake goths.

So get it went through the same and as a married happy women there is so room for both!

In the bedroom such freedom to be whom you wanna be! Besides also get to change it up when the mood hits!

From loving sweet romantic love to hard gothic love with my make up outfit and well everything to make me happy tied up and adored! Letting him do my body make up with a sharpie writing all over me reminding me of who I am inside and out!

Really so more depends on the guy being able to make you happy and teaching him. Letting him know which your feeling and how best to be with you then... But that is every marriage

Why not be both? You should wear whatever makes you feel good about yourself. If you want to go more girly one day without the goth aesthetic that is perfectly okay and you can also get really cute black dresses that are both girly and gothic.

It's not mutually exclusive, most goth girls wear dresses, means that they are girly girls. :)

Good cause I’m super traditional in values and gender roles. Super super traditional ;) and I don’t even own pants.

[Asker]

[Berethor]

A black dress, good that you wait until marriage, it means that you good girl. :)

You are "quirky", not "goth" or "girly"

Goth means to be into the music and aesthetic. Whereas "girly" is more about the aesthetic.

[Smashingdoozy]

If you want to dress goth then dress goth, nothing is stopping you.

If you really want to be a girly goth, you need to give birth to a gargoyle. It's the only way.

The spider tattoo would be a clue.

[Iron_Man]

You are confusing

[Asker]

No I’m traditional woman values and modestly dressed but I’m goth because I’m so creative deep and emotional.

[Iron_Man]

Are you Christian?

[Asker]

Absolutely!!! I was goth as a teen. I wasn’t saved then but it doesn’t matter cause now I’m saved (the best thing ever!!) and I’m creative deep emotional so I’m goth inside and miss dressing goth. I dress very modest now. I need to make it modest Goth though. Any ideas?

[Iron_Man]

I’m glad to hear that you’re a Christian ✝️

[Iron_Man]

No, I don’t have any ideas how to dress goth in a Modest way

[Berethor]

Black modest clothes, only white clothes can be modest? not really, not really.

[Asker]

Glad you are Christian too right? That’s so awesome. We have a great life ahead of us in heaven

[Iron_Man]

Yes we do all of us christians ✝️

You can be both be proud of who you are

You don't need to dress in dark clothing or wear black lipstick, or do certain stuff to be a goth lol. Being goth means supporting and following the goth ideology, taking inspiration from and resonating with gothic rock
