Goth for me, most certainly. But how 'bout y'all? And by "subculture" I'm refering to the entire experiance, that is the music, the art, the whole, as it were, shebang. Also, this is supposed to be fairly broad: Goth includes Rivethead and Mansonite (yes, I know, Manson isn't "goth"), Gangsta includes Rappa, Gangsta, and whatever you call the ones who listen to Hip-hop instead of rap (hip-hoppas?,) and so on. And when I say "other," I mean those cultures that are completely different from all else: cyberpunk, for example, which is too punk to be goth and too goth to be punk, or Valley Girl (VGs should, by the way, be used as fuel in steam boilers.)

Other.

Grunge is still a subculture. *peace sign* :p

k-pop

I'm kinda hard to classify. I listen to country and Christian rap and rock music. I'm a computer geek. I'm a philosophy major and a Jesus Freak. I'm to the right of George Bush on the political scale.

I'd say I'm about half geek, half redneck.

I voted other, because this poll is lame. A person's personality should be what you look at, not their "subculture" (otherwise known as their "image")

Classic slacker (Linklater/Copeland, not Bob)

Hey, it's easier to look at a person's subculture for cues as to what music they like, what clothes they wear, etc. than it is to examine them that closely.

I'm a biker but the 10-15 speed kind. :D

I use to be a punk, now I am a sell out.

I use to be a punk, now I am a sell out.
I like that. Can I be part of your subculture?

I consider myself unique enough not to belong to a 'sub-culture' per se. However, were it nessecary to define myself in that terminology, I suppose I could define myself as a 'boarder' (ie: Snow/Wake/Surf etc) since my style, though definitely different, most closely remembles that image. I wear the skate shoes, and a lot of my clothing comes from retailers in that industry.

Very well, then! of that sort only are my readers, my true readers, my readers foreordained: of what account are the rest?--The rest are merely humanity.--One must make one's self superior to humanity, in power, in loftiness of soul,--in contempt.

I like that. Can I be part of your subculture?
Absolutely not.

Absolutely not.

That's hardly selling out.

People who choose other, could you post, please? I'd be intrested in hearing...

Why not? You're a former punk who sold out. I'm a former biker who sold out. Ergo, subculturedom, or should I say, subculture-dumb. :p

Hmmmm, it's suprising there are more neo-nazis than goths.

Hmmmm, it's suprising there are more neo-nazis than goths.

not really, it's the new black.

I really don't fit into any of those groups. I have been labelled by all those who know me in RL as wildly independent

To bad. You can't join. We don't allow posers in the ultra exclusive lame-o sellout scene.

Early 90s emo/hardcore, at least that's what I mainly listen to, I just dress kinda indie kid/slackerish.

there you go.

I'm like a turtle - I carry my own subculture with me, wherever I go. On rare occasions, I encounter someone with the same, or more usually, a related subculture, and for a while, my subculture DOUBLES in size! How exciting.

I was the odd one out way back when - not one of the various 'groups' would have me, even the geeks. However, I had a more-or-less even standing with all of them; I just thought it was all rather hilarious at the time. All the imaginary lines and demarkations...and requisite likes and dislikes, heaping praise on heaps of shit, while pointedly ignoring something that appealed to some other group of pigeonholed idiots. Not to mention all the myriad interpersonal politicking and byzantine relationships. It was much easier to chart my own course in the end. Less headache and bullshit to endure.

Cross between a nerd, a hippy, a people-hater and a muso without a band.

I voted other, because this poll is lame. A person's personality should be what you look at, not their "subculture" (otherwise known as their "image")
I agree completely. Why is it so important to "classify" someone? People should be judged by their words and actions, not by their "subculture".

nigga HOLLA

http://img49.exs.cx/img49/2995/azngangstaluv3lr.jpg

Dude. You forgot 'emo', which is pretty much THE sub-culture right now.

Not to mention the 'furry' and 'otaku' stuff.

Myself, I'm not part of any culture or sub culture.

I have influences with many things, sure, but I'm not part of any group.

I refuse fandom.

I dont like how prep is linked with Jock.. jocks are almost never prepy... Im more of an intelectual elites(60%) prepy(30%) nerdish(10%) kid ~_^... but thats just my superiority complext talking :D

Otaku scare me. (I used to be one, but aside from my Cowboy Bebop, Ranma 1/2, and Trigun stuff, which I occasionally peruse, I have set that hated past behind me.) And Furries, along with "Otherkin," belong in the drawer marked "Oddball Stuffe (Openn at thy Own Riske)" with a peeling, deep brown label.

*runs around singing*, I'm a sell-out, a sell-out, yeah, frickin' sell-out

If I have to say..
geekneck.

more dead computers than dead cars, but not by much.
If I ever get around to trying to build a plasma rifle, i'd proably use street signs for target practice.

of course, Bondagefurr has always been a little facination of mine.
I guess you could say I have strange tastes.

Other. Metalhead/nerd. There are a suprising number of metal fans in computer science. I have been accused of being goth (the connotation used wasn't one of friendliness) before mostly because almost all the clothes I wear are black (or used to be before they faded to dark grey). That has more to do with colour blindess (easy to find matching colours) than any particular desire to belone to any particular subculture.

Combine Goth, Punk, Jock, and Nerd and you get what I am: Skater.

So ... booyah.

I conform to nothing. I am who I am, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

I know what FERMIlabs is (and why four-story Van de Graaf generators are raw pwnage), I find quantum mechanics and string theory interesting, albeit at odds with the physics I learn in school, the big thrill of my day was learining how to use a peice of software that is great for designing mechanical parts in 3-D (and this was a good day, too), I RP, I go to this site :), I am part of a Robotics Club (FIRST Sacramento regional champions, headed to Atlanta for the finals!), and I theorize on the appilcations of a quantum computer capable of trinary computations. Oh yeah, I think geek/nerd fits quite nicely :D

Otaku scare me. (I used to be one, but aside from my Cowboy Bebop, Ranma 1/2, and Trigun stuff, which I occasionally peruse, I have set that hated past behind me.) And Furries, along with "Otherkin," belong in the drawer marked "Oddball Stuffe (Openn at thy Own Riske)" with a peeling, deep brown label.

Fans, period, scare me.

Just that some are scarier than others.

Some of the people who call themselves 'furry' are actually very decent people, very intelligent, and very able in the world.

Just.. some are.. um... EWWWWW.

Other. I suppose I'd be some strange hybrid of nerd, classical goth and emo, but since there isn't a name for that (nergomo? gothmord?) I'm happy just being a freak :D.

In terms of internet subcultures I'm definitely a yaoi addict, though. Which brings me to the question, all you people who define yourself as furries/phurries/burnt furs, do you mean you consider it to be a RL subculture in its own right? Just curious.

Dude, seriously, don't bother trying to define furry.

They're still arguing about it themselves.

I ran in to one woman who insisted that nothing is furry unless it was made by a furry fan.

So. No furry could exist before they were a fan of themselves. Or something.

Meh.

Nigga yoo dun kno wut yo tlkin bout w/ that stuff about gangstas, all mockin w/ yo "hip-hoppas" shiz.. how about i tell ur "gothic" self to go bck to 250 AD w/ yo gothic homez.

no rlly, if ur gothic, why u use the internet? the goths were around back in the 200-300 AD period. shuldnt you live in a dark little evil tim burton-esque amish village? or r u just a kid who thinks its koo to go around online playin the "im so emo" game for attention? or so you can feel koo?

not to flame.. im jus curious abt wut u have to say.

... sorry.. I was joking, I don't really type like that, I was just playing the "stupid black man" profile that was set.

Seriously though, all these people trying not to conform, don't realize that conforming is the clothes you wear, or the way you live your life. It's the thoughts and philosophy's.

So by accepting the thought that buying all your clothes from "preppy" stores and such is conforming, they have actually conformed. By accepting the thought process.

While those that buy from the "preppy" stores because they actually like the clothes, and don't read demonic books and go to church, are not conforming. Conforming is accepting the thought of the whole, as long as you do things by your own thought, it's not conforming, even if the others that think as a whole do it. It's all about doing it by your own thought.

Sorry, again not to flame, but the Goths are dead... if they had music, I'm sure it wasn't anything with an electric guitar. By being Goth, you're just accepting the thought of a group, that goths wear leather / chains/ dark stuff.

Also, today's "goths" are, again, forgive me for stereotyping, but they are anti-church. While the true Gothic culture surrounded the church?

Just my two cents.

[Edit: Too elaborate, to be conformist free? Don't accept that conforming exists, and just live your life by free thoughts, don't put yourself into a stereotype of Nazi, skinhead, or goth. You just look goofy and make no sense. Showering everday doesn't make you a conformist.]

[Note: I may be wrong about the timeline for the Goths, I was thinking back, I might have them mixed up with another movement. Haven't had to think of that since years and years ago in school]

I'm a Cyberpunk Beatnik Biker Nerd. Something like that, anyway.

I'm hard to label. I don't say that in some kind of elitist nonconformist way, I'm just far too varied in my interests and activities to sufficiently classify myself.

I don't try to dress any specific way, or go out of my way to act of do anything specific to forge some kind of identity for myself. I just wear whatever's clean, do what I think is fun, and read, watch or listen to the things that interest and pique my curiosity to the point where I can't get enough of it.

If you label me, you negate me. - Søren Kierkegaard

Does this make sense to you (this question also addressed to the author of the thread's question)?

Dersatz, definitions change with time. If you're going to be pedantic, you also have to say that "punks" were actually all prostitutes, because that's what it meant in medieval England. The meaning of 'gothic' now is very different from what it meant 100 years ago, but then, so is the meaning of the word 'queer'. I used the word goth because it most suited my style of dress (black), taste in literature (mervyn peake) and philosophy in general (anti-church), but- as I said, and as I'm sure you probably read in my previous post- I don't actually consider myself to be a goth, I just said that's what I'd be if I had to pick a category.

They're trying to not conform with Official Society. But they conform with each other, true. Counter-cultures and all.

Fortunately there are plenty of actual non-conformists out there.


So by accepting the thought that buying all your clothes from "preppy" stores and such is conforming, they have actually conformed. By accepting the thought process.


Some of us are just cheap and buy whatever looks good, you know.

Preppy is just too damned expensive, and rarely looks good.


While those that buy from the "preppy" stores because they actually like the clothes, and don't read demonic books and go to church, are not conforming. Conforming is accepting the thought of the whole, as long as you do things by your own thought, it's not conforming, even if the others that think as a whole do it. It's all about doing it by your own thought.


However, they're silly, because you can find cheaper clothes that look the same elsewhere.


Sorry, again not to flame, but the Goths are dead... if they had music, I'm sure it wasn't anything with an electric guitar. By being Goth, you're just accepting the thought of a group, that goths wear leather / chains/ dark stuff.


Goth is based on 'gothic novels'. So, yeah, conforming to being spooky-ish. But damn some of those girls are cute in that gear...


Also, today's "goths" are, again, forgive me for stereotyping, but they are anti-church. While the true Gothic culture surrounded the church?


Um.

Do you have any idea how common crosses are in Goth groups?

Goths are quite varied in belief.


Just my two cents.

Why should they conform to your lack of conforming to non-conformity? Heh.

Some people do things for fun, ya know. I still want to go to a goth club, myself, because I think it would be fun to be surrounded by people in costume, who tend to like to be bitten.


[Note: I may be wrong about the timeline for the Goths, I was thinking back, I might have them mixed up with another movement. Haven't had to think of that since years and years ago in school]

Modern Goths are based on the love of Gothic novels, particularly Horror novels.

It's like being based on Twain books. No, you aren't related to Samuel Clemens, but you can still go rafting down the river in a straw hat.

I'm a street bicyclist (not really a biker), but rather, I consider myself a rejectionist. I mock all the subcultures from my small little corner of my bedroom as I type this.

i don't really fit one: i'm part metalhead (not goth), part pothead/stoner, part hippie, part nerd. i take what i like from those and mix em into what i call me :)

Ridiculously Stupid Eye Candy

I honestly believe that I don't fit in to any of those catagories.

I used to be a nerd, but since all the chavs left school only the really nerdy are actually still classed as nerds. I don't really do my work either, lol.

Oi, where the hell is Socialist Subversive or somthing,
I know tons of people who fit into that cartogory, or somthing close it.

I conform to nothing. I am who I am

Just like everyone else :p

Chirst, I really dont know where I would fit maybe one of you guys could tell me. Im nerdy, I like computers, anime, etc. Im selectively socially liberal, im an extreme fiscal conservative. I listen to everything from Johnny Cash, to Slayer (absolutely no pop). I also dont really dress according to any sub-culture dress code (i.e. black and makeup for goth, converse and plaid for punks; this is a gross generalization I know). Im just me, thats why I voted other... tell me where I fit in if you can.

my pigeon-hole is hippy

my pigeon-hole is hippy
w00t go hippies!!

I hate people.

:)

Hmmm. I don't know. I'm part of a little of something.

Ricer, Bloke, hardcore PC Gamer, ... uh.. was a JesusFreak, uh.. Likes reading the business news? Abit the Yuppie maybe?

Geek. Nerd with some semblance of communication and social skills.

Academic, not specifically nerd nor geek. I have a life beyond computers and books, but am most comfortable with critically competent open thinkers.

Style of clothing and music are things of the past for me now, but I was a biker. (I can't afford a Harley at the moment and being middle aged, nothing else would work too well)

Hard to say.

I'm a MOPAR-fanatic, "old school" video gaming, Acid Jazz loving girl.

I simply don't fit into categories. I am my own. ;)

Heh, on dictionary.com, they're both socially inept. :) Ah well.

I dress like a preppy indie kid and listen to electronic music. Er.

I incorperate the Loner, Awsome, Nerd, Writer, and Musician subculture to make...The Lawnsomeitersician!

I guess I'd be a mixture of metalhead and nerd.

...are we in a subcultre?
No, no were not..., but you are.
i am what?
You are a subcultre
am i?
Yes,
You are a subcultre of me
...
You are the weak timid ugly subcultre of my very strong brave handsome cultre
oh...thats nice
Yes, yes it is

I do not conform.

I'm to the right of George Bush on the political scale.

Your political compass would suggest otherwise. According to it, you're a moderate conservative.

*Ponders* I don't think I'm part of a subculture. The closest of those I probably meet would be a Nerd. I think Geek would probably come closer though :p

I prefer to think of myself as an Individual.

My subculture?
I can't think of any that I fit into.

At times. :eek:

Since we could only pick one, I went with Jock/Prep (leaning more towards "prep"). But I think I have a bit of "nerd" in me as well.

EDIT: Upon reading that back to myself after posting I realized it sounds kind of dirty......get your minds out of the gutter :)

I think I'm either Nerd, Geek, Freak, Weirdo, Punk, Loner, Artist, or, in Alabama, at least, "OMFG! STONE HER, BURN HER ON THE CROSS, SHE'S THE REINCARNATION OF SATAN! SHE DOESN'T BELIEVE IN GOD! AND SHE'S GOT BLUE STREAKS IN HER HAIR!"

Id go Jock but i am against the Bullshit Elitist arseholes who pick the people they knw over the supperior payers!
So since their cant be Black Skinheads or Neo Nazis

I am a 5th Columnist!!!

A long time ago, I was comfortable with labeling myself as a Raver. Nowadays I don't identify myself by what music I listen to, what I wear and what I (no longer) ingest. I am myself, and thats all I need to know.

I got told I'm a 'trendy' whatever the hell that is :confused:

I also got called 'gothhead' once because of my hair :rolleyes:

I used to be punk/metal head/hippie with hippie look. Now I'm everything I want.

Trendy. It means you follow trends. Wearing clothes that are popular, listening to music that's popular. You know, just because it's popular. Another word for this "subculture" is Sheep.

Now, I'm not calling you that, and I'm guessing you're not even close to the type. Still, the type exists, and that is quite sickening. But, the world needs stupid people, and they're plenty stupid!

well, i can't believe Germachinia left that off the poll

Hi,
I am an obese Pink Floydd fan who aspires to own a mean bike. Where does that put me?

i just picked other. most people (morons) think i'm a goth just because i wear all black all the time. maybe if they took the time to learn what a goth was really like they'd see that i'm more into metal. but i can't even say i conform to that either.

hell, change it to none. :rolleyes:

I picked none, because i don't conform to any of those different so-called subcultures. I'm a college student, and like many others i spend too much time in the computer labs instead of studying for my exams that start in may :( :eek:

I posted other

I am a single parent, online gaming mum with a psychology degree

guess none of those fit me then :P

Can anyone classify me? I enjoy metal rock, wear relatively trendy clothes with a perchant for neutral colors, red, and black. I am a psychology major. I love to read. I am a fanfiction junkie that loves little kid games like neopets. I have a boyfriend and am a self-proclaimed sex pot. I have mainly male friends and am curious about a great number of things. Any clues? Also, I am beyond an anime junkie

A Stoner. Gods, how did that one get left off?

Me and my mates don't fit anywhere else really. We like metal, but we ain't quite metal heads, we game until 3am but don't have the skillz to be gamers, we love computers but not enough to be nerds, we dress in hoodies because its the only thing warm enough for smoking in a London alleyway, but we also wear leather because it keeps the wind off and we aspire towards Harleys but are never gonna be able to afford them.

Oh, and we get as high as freakin' kites, have an almost pharmaceutical knowledge concerning most recreational narcotics and consider most modern forms of government irrelevant and undesirable.

Yep. Thats us.

go to uni/live in campus... uni towns have mostly students (the chavs seem to stay away from the studenty areas)

I chose other because what category could I choose? I wear sweaters with converse sneakers while listening to ben harper. I'm like a hippie. oh shit. :headbang:

I'm a furry. :3

I wish that were true for Manchester..... :(

I don't have a clue what subculture I am. To scallies (sorry...."chavs"....hate that word) I'm a "mosher" apparently.*cringes at the word* But that's what they seem to call anyone wearing a hoody :confused:

Dark Raver. .... kind of a punk/goth/candy kid mix. ... too much of each to be the others

Wah...i have my own culture, im my own god, im computer freak, bodybuilding freak, games freak, car freak, girl freak im just THE FREAK!!! Freaking culture!

can i hit you with my spoon?

I picked nerd because I enjoy academia, but I've also described myself as a hippy-goth; I love the Doors, Cruxshadows, Manson (yes, I know), flowers, meditation, yoga, natural foods, peace, dark creepy things, etc. However, I dress like neither.

It's an odd mix, but somehow I give off both vibes. As in, people can tell within a few minutes of talking with me that I'm either a "hippy" or a "goth". Go figure.

I don't know what I am. What do you call a pot-smoking liberal metalhead ska/punk BMXing geek? Apart from jackass, that is. Ahem.

What sub-culture am I?

I am the one where you don't go around putting a stupid label on yourself and the people around you. Instead, you just accept the the fact that people are people: there are some who are assholes, and there are some who aren't. Judge people on individual merit, and don't say: "She's popular! I hate those damn preppies! Angst angst angst!"

Sadly, there are not very many people who are part of this sub-culture. Oh well.

totally nerd.

I go to a nerd school (computer), I study in a nerd program (computer networking systems and technology), I buy nerdly wares (anime, manga, games and computer hardware)...

oh you're one of THOSE ... ;)

I'd call myself an indie more than anything. Verging skater.

:D

I am not a nerd, I'm a geek. There is a difference. Nerds are people who study to be smart and get high grades in school. Geeks are just naturally smart so never try and almost always just pass classes because they don't do home work. Then again I'm probably just on the edge of that since I'm the dumbest one of my friends despite having a mensa IQ. Stupid everything.

I have 2 say that i belong to a distinct sub-culture, that of a the rower! Seriously, if u row, u r in a culture of ur own. For one, wearing tight spandex is considered normal(so long as its jsut for trainning.) Nah i'm only kidding, I don't realli have a sub-culture

realist. if it wasnt a subculture, it is now

I'm a Jeek. Half-jock, half-geek. A jeek. :)

Other-
None of those categories work for me.
So I've created my own: Literate Elitist

The Literate Elitist is someone who reads all sorts of points of view on the same subject, aiming for balance when forming opinions. They have a broad musical taste, but disdain things that are too popular as beneath them. They perform well academically, and will eventually find themselves in high-paying professional jobs.

I voted other also, I'm a Ferroequinologist. If you must know then look it up.

Subscribing to a "subculture" is a very middle school, immature, and weak concept.
I don't really relate to any one in particular. Rather, I think it's more humane to just learn to accept everybody, appreciate, and respect them.

There really is no excuse not to, in my opinion.

I'm a crazy-cat-lady/aging-sex-pot cross. :D

I'm kinda hard to classify. I listen to country and Christian rap and rock music. I'm a computer geek. I'm a philosophy major and a Jesus Freak. I'm to the right of George Bush on the political scale.

I'd say I'm about half geek, half redneck.
Christian rap... I can only imagine...

Hmm lets see..I have no particular thing, really. I dress in both punk and prep, listen to just about all kinds of music (except country) and I have blond hair...so..I guess I'm just unique. The only way to go.

I really dont fit in with any of them. I listen to punk, dress like an HT kid (Hot Topic) and romantigoth, but have ONE friend. and she doesnt fit into the preset categories either. Im not a nonconformist on purpose, I dont conform by nature, lol. so, call me what you will but i dont fit in with anyone.

If anything, i am a '69er skinhead. But i dont follow all the subculture "rules", thus i dont wear the Lonsdale shirt/bomberjacket uniform, even if i like my boots. I shave my head, keep my sideburns, like drinking beer and doing stupid things and dig ska. Some of my chums are more dogmatic, but i like to take a look into other things, thus i hang out with psychobilly mates, have goth friends (and enjoy the occasional industrial/ebm), will visit a punk concert this evening and do very nerdy things.
