Why don't some pole don't understand nto goths have tats peicing, or wicca or devil worsihppring or asd are depressre.d Why don't some people understand therea re happy devout christan goths who don't lie Marliyan mansino and don't cut and don't like vampiore.s The smae g goes for emo. Why do some people tink of the colbuie thing when soem crhstians and preits have clarifed that not all goths are evil and thers' things that declare this? Why has some of the media proatrayed goths like this. WHy the Candain government not doing anything about it? let me know. I'm not a gth but the typicl girl and wnat to know but consideirng possily going goth/emo and punk.
