From a sidebar on the BBC, yeah.
WHAT IS A GOTH?
- Goths aim to be individuals but share a distinctive uniform, common tastes and attitude.
- They are often sullen, dress in black and red with silver or stainless steel and leather adornments and body piercings.
- They carry around a lot of metal on their clothes and bodies. They wear heavy military style boots, fishnet tights or stockings if they are female and distressed clothing.
- Their rooms are dark caves full of the sounds of Siouxsie and the Banshees, the Cure, the Mission, Cradle of Filth, Sisters of Mercy and other guitar bands.
- They rarely speak to adults but their language tends towards estuary although many retain their regional accents.
Good to know those sullen boys I see wearing fishnet aren’t goth. Maybe they’re ninjas!

Well, that confirms that I am not a goth. I am seldom sullen, my rooms are not dark caves, and I’m positive my language does not tend towards estuary.
Nice to see you posting a lot! Especially the recipes.
