Goths in school...
 

has your school done anything to stop the whole gothic scene?

yeah 2 things.
1. no eyeliner, nail polish, jewlery, not like i will go to school with no eyeliner on, that is just stupid, no i do what i want, they pay the price.
2. they teach us alot about religion if that counts, i brought up an argument in one RS (Religious Studies) class because a girl said there was no such thing as magic, i said all this stuff about Wiccans and the teacher glared at me the whole way through. i was like oh crap! after cos she was like that is not true.... and i was like but i nkow someone who is Wiccan and she knows it is true. i shut up after that because another teacher came into the room and after the teacher forgot what we had been talking about...

would i happen to know the person who is wiccan??

Do you know Steph? I don't think you do, she goes out with Rus? Julie worships her? Ring any bells? I may have talked about her

i think you've mentioned her one or twice... why the hell does julie worship her?

Cos Julie has no one else to worship! Steph is a hot guy magnet, Julie thinks if she hangs out with Steph guys will like her more because Steph accepts her. Steph goes through boy friends really fast. At the start of term it was Martin, next week it was Steven and now it's Rus, he's the longest so far with a grand total of 3 weeks

okay strange... well anyway back to the original topic!!

my school is pretty cool about gothic stuff, loads of people have dyed hair.... mainly black but a few have red hair and there's a girl with green hair tips i think...
we're not allowed nail polish but stuff that!! eye liner is okay...and jewellery is okay as well. though i wish i was at an americasn school so i could wear my own clothes...

Yeah. Check that thread out. It's about the same thing.

Cool...thanks

My school is very good about it. Most of the dress code applies to the prep croud and their short shorts and sagging pants.

I think one of my friend once had a problem with a fishnet shirt because it doesn't cover nothin. Um, but he just put a shirt on top of it and it was all good. So many people wear creative clothing of one kind or another that it's fine with everyone.

my old hich school had no dress code whatsoever..being that all girls dressed like little porn stars and the alternative dressers could wear whatever they wanted..i went to a couple of schools for high school and it wasnt always the same..mpst opposition comes from teh student body and not teachers or authority..the only time i was reprimended was for having a patch on my bag that was a hand giving the finger..and they said they "suggested" i remove it..

In my highschool, the retardeded security officers don't want people wearing chains or spikes. They think it's some kind of weapon. Hah! But the kids still wear them. As for make up, they don't care.

am still at skool n i love breaking the rules on 'no make-up allowed' its great to see the teachers getting frusrated because the goths wont listen to them!!!

No eyeliner and black nail varnish but we don't listen...
 

We've got loads of goths in sixth form, the teachers aren't too happy (For some reason they think we should wear blouses and black trousers) about it but they don't take any s*** from nobody - especially not teachers. My form tutor is a goth and he's meant to tell us not to wear eyeliner or black nail varnish but he says it looks cool so we can do it anyway.

kewl it would be wonderful to have a teacher like that

lol. He's got those holes in his ears where some of the flesh is missing - they look so rockin' honestly, but my parents think he's a bad influence lol.

Well then, if you did we could teach you how to spell and use grammar correctly.

OMG. At my school you have to wear uniform. No Eyeliner allowed. No Hairdye allowed. No jewlrey allowed.

And Some of our teachers are prejudice to goths. On the last day of the year (when you can actuely wear your own clothes) last year a teacher turns round to me and said I look awfull how I was dressed. Loads of kids give you abuse because of it. I mean our drama teacher said goths are sad and boring and she doesnt like them!

Thankgod i change school next year!!!

Our school's pretty cool about all that, although we have to wear a uniform like all other schools in Ireland. We're not allowed to have facial piercings but a few people in my year do but dont get told off to cuz we're seniors. The only thing is we're not really allowed to have "weird" colours in our hair but one girl has green hair and she told them she wasnt gonna dye it back so they couldnt do anything!!!

My high schools never did much against it... and I'm going into hair school in a few weeks.... one of my teachers is a lesbian goth who wants in my sister's pants...... so I assume that it's fine there too ^^

Ah my school doesn't let you dye your hair to extreme colours and the only jewellery your allowed is one set of earings if you have your ears peirced...everything else is confiscated. Nobody really knows whos a goth becuase of the uniform but a teacher heard me talking to someone about music and hasn't made eye contact with me since, I think she's a bit scared of me.
