Goths in the Daily Mail...

Goth who walks fiancee on a leash is banned by bus driver who told him: 'No dogs allowed'

The Daily Mail reports that, basically, goths are treated like weirdos because they dress weird.

This is one reason I don't miss dressing crazy on a day-today basis any more.

I have my grannie's voice in my head going 'she'll catch her death going out dressed like that in weather like this'

Oh, daily mail.

The comments are comedy gold.

What idiots! What do they do when they go to work? Dress the same? Or don't they work? They would never get past a first stage interview dressed like this.

He looks like a work-shy scrounger to me, get a job and pay your way.

If he was a gentleman goth, he would loan her his coat.

They both look like UTTER TWATS. It's not that they look weird that annoys me..it's just the desperate I LOOK WEIRD, PLEASE MAKE SOMETHING OF IT AS I BUY ALL MY CLOTHES AT THE OFFICIAL GOTH SHOP AND THEY COST LOADS demeanor.

I don't think it's fair on people who might have to explain to little kiddies why Mr G has his gf on a leash.

You just tell them 'that's how grown ups hold hands when they don't want to get pregnant'

I do tend to agree with sushidog on the "taking scenes into public", though. Consent blah blah blah.

(Am interested in the fact that Ver Kids may not see it in the same way, mind.)
