egl_archiveWould anyone here be interested in joining/co-maintaining a community devoted to the more punkish and gothic lolita styles?

It's everyone's favorite combo!
I support you!

Date: 2004-02-02 06:30 pm (UTC)As for the latter, it makes them uncomfortable to think someone will assume they're into a 'Daddy spank me' fetish just because they want to go out wearing a frilly outfit and parasol. Those uninterested in the sexual fetishes that can accompany EGL have to defend themselves from that premise and it can seem a little unfair which is why I assume they defend themselves against it so vehemently.
I think of it as a parallel to western goth subcultures where some partake in the darker fetishes and religions that can accompany it while others absolutely detest assumptions being made that because they dress in all black they must drink each other's blood and be Satanic.
I think we'd all get along better if each group understood where the other group stands and agree to not force their theories about the fashion upon the other.

Date: 2004-02-02 07:00 pm (UTC)I definately agree that there are two groups, but there are times that the two overlap, such as in the Gothic & Lolita Bibles, like seeing a leather and chain corset next to a pair of ruffly bloomers. That's part of the beauty of the scene: You can be innocent or you can be sensual or sometimes both. There's the power to choose. (Personally I choose the innocence most of the time ^_^)
