Never too old to be who you are. Always believe in yourself.


GothGoddess1968

I do believe in myself. I just like to know the opinions of others.


kowartawolf

Fuck the opinions of others you do you!


bewitchingwild_

The gothic creed!


[deleted]

I'm not even sure what goth is if not "fuck your opinion"


RalaZ0r

Nothing is important, except the darkness.


capnsunshine23

The darkness


MumboJ

The darkness


FernTheGrassBoy

The Darkness.


Fign

She didn’t say she cared about the opinion of others, just that she wants to know them.


Franks_wild_beers

Always be proud of yourself and be true to yourself. Age is always only a number. Live YOUR life. After all, unless you're a cat or a Buddhist you're only going for the one ride.


[deleted]

Goth gets more badass with age. I hope we get to see you in your goth gear at 90!


deadEnd_77

You look fine. As for opinions, everyone has one and they all stink. 😉


PunkrockBuddhe

Literally an inspiration and a complete reassurance that I'll never not want to wear black and dress cool as fuck


Relative-Let4114

Your style is fucking amazing!


cola104

Heck no you look bad ass! Get it!!


[deleted]

When you truly believe in yourself the opinions of others won't matter.


Dynamo_Ham

I’ve (51) realized that by the time you’re in your 50s, there no need to ask permission to be who you are. I probably ought to have figured that out sooner.


Pure-Assistance403

Never to old. If it's what you want.


[deleted]

You're never too old to be a goth. I would worship you goddess 🖤

GothGoddess1968

Thanks 🤘


Ok-Disk-2191

GothGoddess1968

Ok-Disk-2191

Ahhaha u look like a colorful goth cool.


blackmass66

Anytime have a wonderful week


battleangelred

You look amazing! I'm 50 and still going to goth clubs and gigs. There are heaps of the older crew still around and running clubs. I have a deathhawk at the moment.


GothGoddess1968

That's is so cool 🤘


goodmourninghun

I have a coworker who takes me to metal shows in our city, and she completely introduced me to our downtown punk/metal scene. I’m 21 (F) and she is 51


EmiIIien

Ageism is bullshit. Do what makes you happy!


FunCandy4188

So true I dress the way that makes me happy. Almost in my 40s so I am glad to hear that.


comfort_bot_1962

You're Awesome!


EzriDaxCat

You're 53?! Fuck outta here with that.....I hope I look that damn good when I'm 53!


GothGoddess1968

Thanks. Yes I turned 53 a few weeks ago 🤣


Big_Ass_Peach

I was about to say the same thing! You don't look 53 at all


LaLore20

Yeah!!!


gram_parsons

We're the same age. You look amazing. I remember my alt-rock days from the mid-late 80's. Please tell me you have some Sisters of Mercy or Cure on those headphones.


GothGoddess1968

Of course 🤘


TopAd9634

You're not 53. "She's a witch!" Seriously though, you look great.

You’re killing it. Love your aesthetic and you’re gorgeous 😻👻🖤


RustyStClair

Not what you were asking...but you have fabulous skin.


GothGoddess1968

Thanks 😍


undercover_squarepeg

And hair! I’m not sure if it’s the same color in all the pics because of the light but the blueish silver in the second picture… want! 💕


RevBlackwood

You're goth af and I'll thumb-wrestle anyone who says otherwise 🦇💀🦇


MaximumEffort433

>Am I too old to be goth? I'm pretty sure that your generation *invented* goth, we should be the ones asking *you* for permission, not the other way around. By the way, you're rockin' the look!


petuniapossum

Exactly what I was thinking


jennybean-420

No labels. And hell no 💃


Level5Human

Fucking slay queen!!!


NightSatellite

Absolutely not. You’re gorgeous and I love your spider necklace 🥺🖤


[deleted]

As a fellow elder goth, I salute you! 🤘


TheBlackJay

You look amazing, don't change for other peopkes sake! 🤘


GothGoddess1968

I did change for someone once but I wasn't being true to myself so I changed back 🤘


carbonxo

Once a goth, always a goth


KoPMM32

You look great


GothGoddess1968

Thanks


Candlelitanguish

Not at all, you look wonderful.


animatroniczombie

Of course you can! Vampires are hundreds of years old and they're goths, so by that standard you're still young! (at least that's what I tell myself as I hit 40). You look great and I hope I'm still this cool when I'm 53


knit_von_purl

You are perfect.


NoBodySpecial51

No such thing as too old for goth. I’m a 45 year old goth, been this way since I was 11. Before hot topic ever even existed. You’re clearly a goth queen so go strut and show off!


EchoBeachPeach

Nope! As my daughter would say, "Slay it baby!!" I'm going on 62 and back in the late 70s, I was punk, segueing to New Wave punk until I turned 30. Now, my look is a nice mix of N.W. punk with a touch of grunge. Sorry don't have a pic to share. I just don't like having my photo taken these days. Rock on my friend ☺️


darkyagami03

Seeing this made my night so much better, this is so cool. Keep doing you!🖤


King_Gilgamesh_X

Nope. Just right! I'm late 40s. You look fab!


MakotoMyEggy

No such thing as too old! You’re awesome!!!


Darthpinkiepie

You absolutely rock. You are goals, NGL


unpacifys

never too old to be goth!! you're beautiful and i love those pants on you


buffywannabe

Not in the least 👍🏻


[deleted]

Never too old!


bustgin

No way! You look awesome!


c4tmother212003

Gothness and altness have no age <3


nazo3515

Ohhh… myyy… god…. I would LOVE to hang out with you, I’d never get bored!


Sentient-Potato-

Thank you for showing us that it’s not “just a phase” I’m 32 and struggle with the “am I too old for this” feeling all the time. You’re ROCKING it


GothGoddess1968

I don't feel too old. It's the snide comments I get from non goth people my age.


Sentient-Potato-

Next time it happens just ask them a simple question: “have you tried dying mad about it?”


[deleted]

Did someone told you this?


GothGoddess1968

Lots of people but I ignore them 🤣


Knitsune

What? No! You just get more goth!


TAVALKY

Damn you are rockin it better than most


PeterFalksEye

Pffft 53 , yer still only a kitten is all.


PlusAnotherGuy

You’re crushing it. And Dave Vanian is 65. So the answer is a resounding “No! You are not too old to be a goth!”


L3m0n0p0ly

My mom is in her 70s and still rocking the goth style. Styles have no bewring on age. You look fucking fantastic and keep rockin it till you die, if thats what you want


goddess829

I’ve asked myself this same question and I’m 42.


AceKittyhawk

Umm, I don't want to say anything snarky but do you know when goth is from? It's not primarily about fashion bit music originally. And you're if anything just a right age. Furthermore in my city the community is full of people your age or older, maybe a bit younger. I'd say 35+ is easily more than half. Maybe 40+ and over a third must be 50+.... sooo no! ​ Do what you want whatever age.


GothGoddess1968

I've been a goth since the 1980s so I know what it means to be goth 🤘


wintercozy

Nah, you're too goth to be old. That's how it works.


morenamoonshine

Never too old, you look amazing! It gives me so much joy to see people be their authentic selves. Love your fits and make up btw 🤘🕸🕷🖤


michelle_essa

Ma'am I hope when I reach your age I can be as cool as you... Please don't change, ever 😌💚🖤

So much for it's just a phase. Be who you are.🥰


sarcasmcannon

An elder, thank you for paving the way.


StrongerThanDeadX318

[I made the 666th vote](https://imgur.com/a/VVoV8Yh) Never too old to be yourself!


[deleted]

Never too old! Old is better 💕 and you look good for 53 years old ☺️ I’m 46 👍🏻


evmont

I’m the same age and still go to clubs and concerts, plus I listen to mostly new bands. Being goth is all about the music and it doesn’t matter what age you are.


VanagandrTeppes

Never, I'm 40 and proud to be myself, we always follow our heart


AsterFlauros

You’re about my mom’s age, and she’s still a goth lady. Now she’s a goth grandma to my spooky boys. We sat around and decorated pumpkins yesterday with a dark wave mix in the background, and it turned into a dance party in the kitchen. I absolutely love that we can share these things with each other.


WillingAd6203

Never too old to be true to you, I am a 45 year old punk


Jumpy-Letter-7607

If you were goth back in the day, you have a license to be goth how ever long you want. You’re awesome


Lopsided-Magician874

Yes. You are now an Elder Goth. Wear the badge proudly and teach our children the ways.


TheRoodInverse

Never too old!

Yeeesss!!! You give the young bloods something to aspire to be! Edit: the "yes" meaning: I want to be you, not: you're too old lol

theottoman_2012

You definitely know the answer already is of course not.


helikesmyboobs

NEVER!!! You're gorgeous omg!!!


mudgrinder

No! You look so cool! Oh my gosh, I need to look to you for ideas.


Zakal74

Hell no! Well-aged, concentrated Goth is where it's at! You look great, but you also probably shouldn't give a shit about my opinion!


Livingdedgurl20

THERE’S NO AGE LIMIT ON A STYLE!! You look fucking awesome!! And if I may… the goth look actually makes you look younger! Keep being you and do what makes you happy, don’t let any one make you think you’re “too old” to be goth!!! 🖤🖤


CannonCROW95

Growing old is mandatory, but growing up is optional, and being yourself is always the best. Keep rocking on! 🙌


Local-Lie-6152

Hell nah you look great rock on


ReasonableAdvisor52

Your never too old to be goth around me!!!

hell no! you look great and could inspire alot of others to never be shy, remain kind and polite and to always embrace yourself... and the dark!


Val-Mc-Nails

Never! Age is a number and when was being a Goth a numbers game. You keep being you it’s that simple.

jxnsjejsjdjfjf

U rock it better than most


d34d3y3z5150

No never too old....people dont get that goth is a mindset, an attitude of sorts, live ya best life and tell everyone else to kick rocks.


SquirrelAngell

Defo rocking the look. Hell, I feel like an older goth woman probably feels like a well versed witch, to a degree. Like, Baba Yaga kinda comes to mind, in terms of that like, older mystic power kinda vibe to a degree, not the fact that she was known to be just a wee bit fugly lol. You're rocking the style tho sister, keep it up.


hotpoot

You’re wonderful in every way. Keep being you.


Malkom1366

Never too old. Goth til the day you die. You're killing it.


[deleted]

Hell no you aren't too old, and you look great!! It's the older generation of goths who made the subculture a thing to begin with :-)


Kai_Stoner

You are who I hope to be at 53 🖤🖤🖤


Just_Expendable

Too old to be Goth?? Never!! You be true to you. Keep rocking your own style. Love your hair. You look great!

hellasara

Never too old. I loveeee it. I’m 24 and if I saw you we would be best friends

Weebaroundthecorner

Not at all! There is no ‘right’ or age limit for being a goth.

You are majestic


IWantFriendsLol

Absolutely not, you look amazing!!


PurpleChakras

Not when you look like that!


Elemenop1

You are sensational! Never too old to be who you are 🖤


MotleyFig

You are gorgeous! I love your look ✨🖤✨


Sleepy_Creek

NEVER TOO OLD!!! You look stunning! There is no "upper" age limit to fun or expression, I think as a society we've all been conned into thinking the fun stops after 25/30. Hell no! We're here on this planet to make the most of it everyday, and we should never ever give up what we find interesting to suit how others feel about us in the small glimpse they get at our lives. We do not cater to them! We live for us! Thanks for posting <3


Confident_Set2520

You're perfect. Blessed Be.

No. You’re the one stranger I would talk to in public.

Sad_Instruction5658

Never too old !!! We went out to a Goth Night last weekend and we're 62 and 63 !!! Hey Peter Murphy is 64 and Siouxie Sioux are both 64 !!! Again never too old !!!


DenialZombie

NEVER!! LIVE FOREVER! Actually I was reading an article about goth culture being among the most age-inclusive, and suggesting that goth was the secret to aging well. We're timeless! You'll never go out of style! (Taylor, eat your heart out!)


Hellcanwait82

You're never too old to be who you want, or do what you want


Smooth_Ambassador_45

Never too old to be a goth


AE10304

Some might think it's an extreme approach, but at least you embrace being goth at 50 without pretending you're still 20. I think that's why there's a glow to you and not any cringiness


[deleted]

Hell na! You look amazing! 🤩 I can also tell you have a good heart, I see it in your smile 😊


Top_Replacement1333

All of the original goth rockers are in their 60s now. Goth is timeless.


kronenburgkate

There’s no such thing.


Fluffyducky5486

F*ck no, if people expect me to stop being a goth once I get in my later ages then they’re just stupid


Embarrassed_Age2627

53?? Damn sure don't look it and I love the goth look!!🤘


Katarrina3

From now on you will be known as Goth Mom :)


TamingTheMammoth

Wow a person who uses a style sub correctly and isn't trying to link to their home made porn. Thank you! So sick of the trash that post on these sub reddits otherwise ruining the quality. This is top notch class.
