GOTH GOTHIC COMING OUT

I  see myself as pretty old school since i started my family and my kids. I know i not very old i still very young I'm only in my mid 20s but due to be a mum now i feel like I am old, and i feel like anyone younger than me are still kids and baby [that just the mother hen me in action.]


 So when it come to me living the family life i really out of the loop with they way thing are, how thing are changing around me changes in the Gothic community/ sub-culture. [All these young kids and their rock music it too loud] hahahahaha sorry that was me trying to make a little joke. I know it was really bad getting back to my point one thing that has pop up in the goth world (mostly use by young goth, baby bats)

The term I'm talking about is COMING OUT GOTH?

So with this term you get question like:

When did you come out the vintage wardrobe?
When did you come out goth to your family and friends?
When did you come out?

But the funny thing to me is "when you hear someone say when did you come out?" i mostly know it is as "coming out that your sexuality is gay" to you love one, friends, the world other men etc.......



So i just find it funny that it is now being use as a goth things...Because from my under standing of being apart of the Gothic sub-culture for almost 12years now that Goth is more of something that you grow into over time..
 So coming out doesn't make sense to me, goth is not something that you don't just jump in and out of.
 It a part of you and who you are as a person and finding your self.

Becoming a goth is a slow thing that you start off very young loving and enjoy spooky thing and not really understanding why you like dark thing or dark music,books etc.... And slowing going from their learning more about your self your interest, why you like those thing and how in fit in for you and the world and everyone around you. Then you start to become comfortable with the idea that maybe the Gothic sub-culture is right for you and so on, everyone goes down the dark road to the Gothic community in different way but still always end up the same ending, YOUR GOTHIC SELF


 
 So i feel that COMING OUT is really the wrong term to be using to explain to other how you became a goth because Goth is a growing thing and your always learn and growing as a person. the older you become what type of life you are living  life is a learning thing and you slow become a better person with every up and down that life decide to give you but it all apart of become adult and finding out what kind person you feel that best fits you.
