A small rant

I want to just write about some things that bother me.
Firstly if you are goth you most likely have problems with friends or family accepting your style. My dear friends love me to death but they still tell me how i would look better if i didn't put on my heavy makeup. That hurts because i love the way i look.
People look at me strange when i walk down the street in a corset and i understand that. But what makes me sad is when people have to ask me why i would dress like that. I dress the way i do because i feel more like myself when i am in my makeup and fit into a corset. I am plus sized and i have body imagery problems but my clothing makes me feel beautiful. The goth culture has made me realize that everyone is accepted no matter their size. My torn tights, my corsets, my makeup - they are all part of who i am. They reflect how i feel as a person, bold and dark.
I am not hiding behind cloths and makeup because i am embarrassed about my body. I am putting my heart on my sleeve for the world to see and i wish that people could see that.
