This is a study for all willing to participate. A study to see varying shades of perspective and different ideas from people who claim to be the same. I have but a few questions and all I ask is that they are honestly answered.
My first question: What is a goth? What makes someone a goth?
Second question: What about vampires? What makes a true, modern day vampire?
What ideas and habits and general makings form these lifestyles? What is specific to them? Clothes? Prefrences? Tastes? Backgrounds?
Thank you to all who return my questions...

1-Gothic means in the dictionary:Of or relating to a style of fiction emphasizing the grotesque,mysterious,and desolate.Someone whom chooses to be goth in this sense you mean is dressing in dark clothing,wearing dark makeup (unisex),being in an almost always mood of exertion and depression and to some,not all;being a loner so to speak.
2-What makes a true modern vampire is actually trully being a vampire,it doesn't matter how the vampire is,if it's a vampire,then it's obviously a vampire.The idea andd habits I am getting to form these lifestyles is changing so who knows really.What do you mean "what is specific for them"?The clothes a vampire or goth choose what to wear,they can wear dark clothing or even have the style of a modern day prep.Preferences.....dark things,unnatural to some so to say.Tastes depend on the person.Backgrounds;it can be anything of their past life (lives),it doesn't really matter to the person.Hope this helps.
