My website!!! Not completely up and running yet, but working on it!!! I need readers!!!
http://ididitbymyself.webs.com/ <<<<< Link. Click it. You know you want to. Come on! <3 I love you my babybats (Followers), so please read this!
What are the teaching kids these days?
I walked in to WalMart the other day, wearing a black BVB shirt, a pair of skinny jeans, black boots (Skinny jeans tucked into them), hot pink and black hand-made arm-warmer, black choker with a ruby in the front, a pair of "I <3 Vampires" ear rings, and a skull braclet (opposite arm as arm warmer) and a women told her child, "If you ever look like that, honey, I'll disown you." I ignored her. Then she walked up to me and said, "Does your family hate you, or do you dress like this behind their backs?" I looked at her and said, "No. My family supports me. It's my life, I can do what I want." Her daughter looked at me and said, "Are you the child of Satan? My mommy says that people who dress and look like you are his worshippers." I walked away, got my Bestie a birthday present and left. Then me and my mom went to eat at Subway. The cashier just stared at me when I walked in, and then said when we got the the counter, "Is this your daughter or sister? She looks like she worships Satan." I got fed up with it and left. People who sterotype are some of the most STUPIDEST people you will ever meet. Comment if this has ever happened to you! Oh and follow me on twitter: DevanGrimes.

Goth's worship satan? What you been smoking?!
Today's topic is about people thinking that Goth's worship satan. I was at school, wearing a fishnet armwarmer, chain bracelet, skull necklace, and a black rose headband, when the idiot next to me asked me if I worshipped satan. I said that I didn't, that I was Atheist. Hearing this, the dude decided to start on another topic: My hair. I dyed my hair black over the summer, and recently dyed my bangs pinkish red. I glared at him, then asked to move. After I had moved, another guy started in on me about it. They said that my parents hated me for letting me be the way I am. I told him that I'm expressing myself, and they have no say so in. My mom and dad support me completely, and are the ones who bought me the black hair dye (I bought the pink hair dye myself). Then he asked me if I smoked crack, pot, ect, ect. I told him that I didn't, and that I never would. I was so ticked, that I was about to slap him (I don't like violence.... It's bad when you get me to that point.) Then the bell rang. I was telling my friend (She's border-line goth.) and she said she had the same thing happen to her, like, three weeks earlier. The one who said all this had a sister, who was my best friend. She was Goth. I talked to her about her brother, and she said that he was only saying that because of his sister. I got out of school early, and found out that the guy got suspended for saying all that stuff. I told my parents what happened, and they said to brush it off. I tried to, but it kept going. Has anyone been told that they smoke pot because they're goth? Told they worship Satan? Next time I'm told this, I'm going to be ticked.

Bad Ass Black Goths: a photoset for you to reblog & throw in people's faces
by Nuestra Hermana
In case you didn’t know, there has always been a lot of backwards ass racist sentiments towards black goths. Statements like, “there aren’t any black goths”, “black people just don’t look right as goth”, “Black goths are scary”, “Black people shouldn’t be goth” are prominent throughout the internet and within clubs and community circles.
Translated, these statements in their simplest root read something along the lines of: Black people cannot be gothic because they are not white.
Of course, not every non-black goth is this way but you will see more than plenty proclaim any of the above without a thought of how erasing and racist it is towards black goths.
Recently, I read someone posting something along the very same sentiment, claiming they had never seen a black person “pull off” being goth.
This here, is for all of you dears who truly believe that. I’m here to simply show you that Black goths do it real fucking well & are just as dark souled & artistically amazinglymagnificent in the goth community (if not even more, yes, I did just say that to you.)
If you don’t know much about this or simply don’t believe me, you can read more for yourself here , where someone is asking foradvice on “on how you would approach one” and here, where someone claims that black people make terrible vampires (TW: racist slurs)… and here where a black goth is attacked for simply asking if there are any other black goths in his area.
If you’re black and goth and want some support:
Black & African American Goths
Black/African-American Goths (364 members! Yes.)
PS: I had abunch more pictures but I couldn’t fit them in to this photoset.
(Amy's note: as a reblogger on Tumblr said, "This racism bullshit from what’s supposed to be an accepting, supportive community subculture needs to stop now.")

goths, emos, scenes, and others.
Who is getting tired of being steryotyped????? I am, for sure. A girl walked up to me and told me to go kill myself when I didnt even know her. She's in most of my classes... Anyway so todays post is about some people I know getting steryotyped, people who steryotype, and steryotyping in genral.
People who have gotten steryotyped:
One of my friends was steryotyped as 'An emotional goth b!tch'. She told me that she was tired of being steryotyped. She committed suicide after that, well tried. She was out in the hospital for a week. Then a girl at my school a few years back, committed suicide in the showers. A gay P.E coach would stare at her while she got dressed and then people steryotyped her as emo, 'cause she had scars on her body.
(Sorry I have to cut this short. I'm on my friends computer and my sister wants to get on)
