Question: How many people here were "Goths" when they were younger?

My daughter - MamaKitty as you know her - was Queen of the Goths during the 90s. The stories she can tell.
I, on the other hand, was a terribly shy teen. I went everywhere but sat on the sidelines, watched everyone and everything, and wrote about it for columns in four local newspapers. I secretly wanted to be a hippie but I liked bathing, wearing clean clothes, sleeping in a clean bed, and eating food that wasn't "organic" even though I was a vegetarian.

Unluckiest Charm in the Box
Not exactly. I was more like a Techno Punk, but I knew quite a few Goths and hung out with them quite a bit when I lived in Europe!
I still have a TON of Dragon and Heavy Metal Magazines stored away, as well as a whole box of Jewelry from those days that I almost forgot I still had!

I wasn't a full-blown goth, but I was close.
I was overweight and loved comic books, reading, writing, drawing, and loved movies, esp. horror and sci-fi. I loved dark literature (discovered Dracula in 8th grade) and was known for my Prose/Poetry performances of works of Poe.
I went through an all-black phase, though attending a private school, I could only go all black "after hours." It didn't last long, though, as I eventually lost some weight and became more confident.
I was still (and still am known, sixteen years later) as the dark/comic book/Speech/funny/weird guy.
Now, I'm proud of my geekitude.
That's why it's some important to just say "Fuck off!" to some of the bullshit and people that are part of the high school experience. One day, it's over, you've gotten laid, and don't take yourself anywhere nearly as seriously.

They weren't called Goths back then. They were an random lot consisting of fans of the Cure, Bauhaus and Souixsie and the Banshees.
