1/20

for context, i posted pics of myself asking for advice about my face because i have body dystrophies and can’t perceive myself accurately. a lot of people on here responded saying i would be prettier if i “dropped the goth look” and tried to appear more normal. they said it doesn’t suit me and one person claimed “you may like being goth, but being goth doesn’t like you” and said i need to find a new style that fits me better.

thing is, i’ve been dressing this way since i was 11. i’m 20 tomorrow. not only the dress, but everything about goth culture is deeply embedded within my soul. i love the way i dress and i don’t want to ever change it, even if it did make me prettier. i was wondering if you guys had any opinions on this or any advice.

(any creepy or sexual comments/messages will be blocked immediately. i have a partner. i don’t want to be your goth mommy or your sub. insane i even have to say this)
