Leather

[Carma]

I'm not a goth, I'm a rocker. And I would slam the door on trinny and suzannah. I may not be a fashionable 'sheep' but at least I do what I do right. I dont do things by halves. I go all out and it works, for me. Its the only time I feel confident and feminine.

Not to mention it sounds like many others here would disagree so ner! Trendies are boring and 'normal' I am a freak and I love it!

'Sheep' you mean to say being a rocker is not being a 'sheep', get over it sister. Rockers are just another sub-culture with its own set of defined fashion rules. We are tribal by nature and we wear our trbal colours wether that is chav, rocker,goth, hip-hop b-boy or raver. You seam to think that your a freak but the reality is that your not. People have been doing the very same stuff for decades before you and anyone else that wants to think they are original individuals.
I am not b***hing just merely pointing out the lack individuality.....end of lecture

I said 'FASHIONABLE' sheep, not rocker sheep. I am not one of those people who says 'I'm unique because I dont follow fashions', I agree I dont follow fashions but I DO follow the trend of the classic rocker. To me, fashion is the mainstream 'top image' (These people are named as trendies in my social group), I personally dont like this image and stick to my own. But I still follow a trend.

Its me, and my nature, that makes me a freak. I am exceeding odd. I am proud of that fact. And that side of me is nothing to do with the way I dress  , it just tends to result in the way I dress.

Just like to add, these social or 'trible' influences, as ET very accurantly put it , are what makes humans unique and are known as 'Mems', not 'Fashions'
