    Of course I'm totally saying "yay" to losing weight and being healthier, but . . . not sure where you live (yah I could have looked before hitting reply but didn't, whoops), here in San Francisco three are tons of hot zaftig goth girls in corset, sexy clothes, etc. Sure, sometimes I see some very large woman in a very small dress and thing gee, I don't think I'd make that fashion choice. But I have found in general that the goth/industrial/fetish scene is very accepting of all body types. Fwiw.

    I'm not a goth, per se, but have what has been come to be regarded as a goth aesthetic, since long before goths were 'invented'! :laugh:

    I have to admit that I'm not at all a fan of goth music (unless it's Voltaire!) but I am a big fan of people - regardless of age and size - being able to dress in a manner which they feel expresses their personality! :devil:

    Feel free to add me if you want!

    I was Goth before they called it "Goth". Back in the late 80s/early 90s, we were just freaks! Still wear my docs though. Favorite band will always be the Cure, no matter what age I am. I was always a chunk, even back then, but I made a lot of my own clothes, added/changed stuff up, and wore a lot of guy's stuff (trenchcoats,black blazers, tuxedo shirts, etc).

    I suppose some people would label me goth but i don't like labels :(
    I've always just done my own thing, like shaving my head at hairdressing college! I know what you mean about feeing uncomfortable in 'goth' fashions. When i was a teenager the clubs etc we're full of all body types & curvier ladies we're actively sought out. These days like the rest of society thin seems to be the only way to be, i would hate to try to buy 'goth'clothes these days i have serious curves!
    Good luck with your journey, i hope you get everything you need from this site x

    I've been called this (both goth and a chubby one too boot! lol) many a times. I'm a bit of everything really I suppose, if I were to think about it? But I don't. I'm me, and I'm pretty awesome. And that's all there is to say. :)

    haha once upon a time. now I am a soccer mom so that life is behind me. The pants and clothes are not always functional with tots running around and being I live in small town iowa its not quite as accepted as a cultural norm and I think I'd miss getting invited to neighborhood events but its awesome you are so confident!

    trying to purchase goth esque clothes in any of the typical malls shops is ridiculously stupid these days. they never carry anything above a 16 in girls anymore, and even the mens clothing has gotten scary tiny :/

    The people in my neighborhood don't mind a bit and most of them even like me. they giggle a little when I wear black lipstick and it isn't halloween, and I hear titters sometimes when i wear my neko mimi, but in this day and age, most people simply don't care any more.

    I guess I would fit with in that general profile as well. I still get dressed up (tutus, boots, bondage skirts, corsets,ect) just on the weekends now. I am a big part in our scene here in AZ w/ my fiance. I am definatly curvy. I cant wait to get into Lip service-vinyl skirts here I come, lol.
