| | The goth culture is present in numerous countries around the world. Few people
know that it originated in Great Britain in the 1980s, in the gothic
rock style of makeup, clothes, and music. Many analysts agrue that it
is a spin of a punk culture which was popular in England in the 80s.
More than twenty years later goth culture has gone though many visual
and cultural changes, and thousands of followers, to become what we
know it today. Since it's inception this subculture was influenced by
the medieval Gothic literature, clothes, and makeup from vampire
horror movies.
Their appearance is usually characterized by the contrast white and
black colors in clothing and makeup. Typical black clothes and hair go
together with cotton white pale faces, and black eye and lip makeup.
Clothes are usually a combination of Victorian style and some modern
punk fashion.
Unlike most other teen subcultures, goth communities usually consist
of well educated people found of literature, poetry and music, who
often are on top of their student classes, and even graduate with
honors. Their communities are not found of topics like Britney Spears no underwear, but would rather read books and write poems.
