What does gothic mean in regards to the group of people? Here's where it gets confusing. There are things that many Goths like that are not gothic (Industrial or Classical Music). There are things that are gothic that many Goths dislike (vampires, interest in death). There are things that some people think are gothic that are not gothic (bands like Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails), and there are things that do not call themselves gothic even if they are considered gothic by most people (bands like Sisters of Mercy and Dead Can Dance). However, there's no Grand Gothic Judge to decree what is truly Goth and what is not, although there are plenty of people who claim to be it. It's an ambiguous label with many people using it that don't understand what it means. The people who do understand it often have many different definitions.

A true goth is a person who acts like him or herself.

A common misinterpretation is that all goths wear black. This is not true. Goths wear all sorts of colors, such as pink, brown, yellow, red, green, blue, and white.

A common misinterpretation is that all goths worship Satan. This is definitely NOT true.

There are as many styles of goths as there are goths.
