Can gothic girls be femenine?
And I don't mean by femenine wearing pink all the time or being girly as hell. Because, everyone thinks I'm rude, and not delicate.... and that's not true of course.

^ what he said.
Have a look at some trad goth girls- all flowing lace, delicate silk and narrow waists from corsetry. They *look* the epitome of feminine.
As for acting 'feminine' it depends on your definition. Do you mean aloof and elegant? Do you mean giggly and coquettish? Any mode of behaviour can be adopted.

What's usually good with goth girls that are feminine is that they also (usually) possess one heck of a self esteem. There is something quite special and attractive about someone that act innocently, say for example the things above; giggly and coquettish, but damn well have both their feet firmly in the ground.

Example- Amaranth is a very, very Trad Goth. Everything about her screams that she would have an air of haughty indifference. Indeed, she often does. Then you have conversation with her, and realise that she's actually a very sensible woman who knows what's going on and has a sense of humour that'd make a sailor blush.

Of course! I am extremely feminine, but I do not always have the time to do all the makeup, fix my hair all pretty, and put on a dressy outfit. To work I usually wear jeans and a shirt because I can just throw it on & go. I wear skirts a lot outside of work (and sometimes during if the weather is fine in the morning). I luuuurve pretty gothy jewelry, but I feel as if I have to have makeup and a skirt on to wear some of it b/c it's rather "fancy". I wear less fancy jewelry when I'm wearing jeans and a shirt. I think femininity isn't always in the way you dress, but the way you act and speak as well.

I am not feminine, atall. lol.
Yeah, I may wear velvet and lace, sometimes...but I drink beer with my legs open with the best of them. I can be really vulgar aswell, i'm terrible. That's my charm though...that's how I roll.

Err, goth girls are much more feminine than non-goth girls generally.
Girls today look fucking horrible. You either have too choices, skank, or tomboy with a fetish for grey hoodies.

I would like to think I have become more feminine with age? A few years ago I was allergic to skirts! Now I have 3! Wow. I love lace, velvet ect in clothing .
As for feminine behaviour?....I am not sure. I think it depends who I am with/talking to.If I am coarse I try to be tactful about it. I hope

Are you implying that males can't be elegant and refined? These are NOT feminine qualities.

In my country, gothic girls act like boys, they´re rude and grumpy :s (most of them). But I´m not like that , I´m kind .

Goth is pretty regional. Keep that in mind.

Oh, yeah, I guess the only unladylike thing about me is that I'm sarcastic and perverse, but only when in appropriate (or should I say inappropriate) company. I do have manners and tact, and I know when *not* to act a certain way. LOL.

I am a major tomboy, but apparently have a sort of earthy femininity.. I am a sensual person.. a Taurus.

Oh I'm also a Taurus...yippee *waves flag*
Least I can latch onto Kontan's back like some sort of hideous parasite or fungal growth *latches*
All that earthy natural sensuality was derived from us being born under Venus

I'm a goat, but we all know zodiacs are bull when it comes to describing personalities.
Except for Scorpio Dragons. All the ones I've met are wankerous bastards.
And yes, Gothic ladies can be uber girly, although I have yet to meet one in person, damn it all.
