They're called "goths" not "gothics." The Goth subculture has all but died out now due to emo kids aka posers stealing their style.
ANSWERI have to disagree with the person over me, since he's confusing emo with gothics.I am gothic so I know what it is.
First: We don't always wear black. I actually wear yellow, red, blue at time.
Second: "color of sadness"(black) has nothing to do with that. It's just that we tend to explore darker subjects than most people. For exemple, I read things on death and vampirism.
Third: We don't want attention, people give us attention.We get attention because we're different and unusual. That's all. ^.^
Fourth: Most of us are more intelligent, mature and open-minded than most people. I did a IQ test and I got 130, which is over the normal for a 13 years old girl like me. Also, I never get into fights because I don't care about what other people say about me. And even though I'm goth, I listen to Paramore, Taylor Swift, Kiss, Twisted Sister, etc...It doesn't mean I'm goth I ONLY listen to goth. I do listen to goth metal though, like Lacuna Coil, Darkwell, Lunatica, Nightwish, Evanescence, Within Temptation, etc...
I hope I helped you ^.^

PS: I do drink blood, I'm still not a bad person ^.^ Not other people's blood though, only mine, when I get hurt or something, I drink the blood and love it. :) ',...,' lol
they wear black because then you cant tell how they feel.
ANSWER (3)
The answer above is very correct. I'm a goth too. One of the reasons why we wear black is began we like to asscociate the color wheel with our emotions. Being Goth doesn't just mean the music. It is also to do with our characteristics. We enjoy the darker side of life more than others. I myself am a mixture of punk (a little) and Emo and goth. I am VERY emotionally unstable. I like to wear the color of my emotion which can usually be black but it changes alot too.
hope I helped a little more

I agree with the top statement. don't forget dark green. we also wear dark makeup. It's not always dark like we do red lipstick or blue eye-shadow etc...
we don't always wear super sexy stuff but I do most of the time. (Not 100 per cent)
People who listen to Rock Music tend to fall down a lot, and the black clothing does a good job of hiding the dirt.
Another opinion: They like the color black because they think it is cool.
==Black expresses death, the macabre, and the unknown, which are often influences in gothic music, whether in seriousness or tongue-in-cheek.==
yeah! Lots of goths wear earings! They usually wear black earings though.
Because both emo's and goths have crazy hair, wear black, and are sorta dark.
I don't know what MOSHER is?!?!?! (1)attitude- emos are ussually sad and goths are ussually mad ir angry (2)style- goths wear nothing but black and emos wear many colors there are more things but I'm not sure about goths cus I'm emo so I can't answer anything more... Sorry
Goth is a very generalised term. In most cases yes. there are goths who dont. Its imposable to say for sure to all goths because there are as many different types of goths as there is goths themselves.
It is hard to say exactly how many goths are born as Capricorns. Many people believe that most goths are Capricorns because of their moody nature.

no, goth do not ALWAYS HAVE TO WEAR MAKE UP but most goths do
Yes they can
Goths wear make-up. YOU perceive it as scary. The question should be "why are you scared of Goth make-up?"
To always wear black
they wear black,red,white.like goths.
Black boots are the common type of shoes that Goths wear. However, there's really no specific "type" of shoe for a Goth
Goths/Emo
goths did not exist in the 1950s the culture hadn't begun until the late 1970s but was more popular in the 1980s
Because both emo's and goths have crazy hair, wear black, and are sorta dark.
