Unpopular Opinion: Goth Wasn’t Always Gatekept
If you wore black, eyeliner, chains, lace, or just carried that dark vibe. You were goth. Nobody was nitpicking over whether you were “trad,” “emo,” or “alt.” It was about the energy, not a checklist. Now, I see people shutting down outfits that would’ve been called goth without question before.
