Just to elaborate on that last point there, I think if someone's going to dress or act in a way that would make others categorise them, they should embrace that rather than get angry about it. If someone looks at you and says "you're a goth" because you have dyed black hair and drapey black clothes, then chances are that's how it's going to be, and you should accept the fact that you are exactly how you're perceived.
Exactly.Quote:

Why?! 'Cause you think they're all dumb or something?

For people who want to sterotype, sterotype yourself.
Apparently I'm Goth, Thats News To Me
I'm steriotyped a weirdo. And a "gof innit". But I just go along with it and say yeah because what they think is a goth is something way different to what goths are really. I wear clothes to keep my body warm, not to ****ing look good. If I wanted to I would wear a chicken outfit and not care what anyone else said.
stereotyping is bad. Does it matter if they wear burberry and trackies if their a nice person??Quote:
