Goths and their "pale" skin

for a few years i have always wanted pale skin, mainly because i feel as though people would think that i'm more goth that way, and another reason why is that i have always been facinated with pale skin. this topic  has been steaming hot in the goth community for a while and everyone goes from home remiedies to skin bleach just to get that all famous "goth skin" so not only other people who are not goths, but also so other goths will think that they are just as goth as the next person. for all of you who were born with the genetics of tan skin i know how you feel, i too have tan skin and i know the struggle for some of us trying to find a fast and easy way to get pale skin, believe me i do with all those long nights or school hours trying to find soaps, lotions, masks, and chemicals trying to get paler and then they fail every-time. I also know the feeling of wanting to give up and just scream "WHY DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE ME TAN!!!" straight to the sun, but latley i have been so busy with school that i haven't had time to make my skin paler, but i have had time to question why pale skin is such an important thing to the goth culture. Now im not saying that all goths think that if you dont have pale skin then u are not goth, but there is a enough of them to make some of us tan goths feel self-consious about our skin. The questions roaming in my head are the same everyday "why do some goths call us posers if we have tan skin?" "why do i feel preasured to get skin white as snow?" "i remember when i jut wanted pale skin because it looked pretty, so why do i feel now that i have to have it or else im not pretty?". So why do many of us think this way? I'll tell you why, because there are many goths who think that a goth with tan skin is a poser, there are also movies, books, social media pictures, and descriptions about the goth culture that make it seem that way.

                               Back to school!

Yikes! the summer is nearly over and you probably don't want to go to school and see all of the annoying people that you wanted to punch in the face during last year. Being a 15 year old goth girl myself gives me many reasons to want to draw the curtains and stay in bed all day, but none the less I have to go to school. You may not be goth or alternative at all but that doesn't mean you dont have the same problems so here to tell you options on what you can do to avoid having a bad first day. 1: You walk on up in that school building like you the shit! you put on your best bitch face and you make sure everyone thinks your the badass of the school and no one can bring you down! 2: You keep to yourself and just be that kid on the corner in the class and read your book if people wanna talk to you then fine but just show them that you really dont wanna be bothered, you could also throw in headphones just to let people really know that you dont wanna be bothered at all that always works. 3: Drink like 50 fucking cups of coffee! be really hyper and be chatty, nobody wants to be near a hyper chatty person on the first day of school! and if someone is already hyper and chatty then you out that little bitch to shame you become the most hyper and chatty one of them all!! 

 So this all i got for you, of you dont like the options then come up with them yourself, and maybe they might work i dont know, well bye
