How can she be "obviously" goth if goth is about the music and has nothing to do with what you wear? All we could see is the clothes. There is a scene where people wear T-shirts for ironic effect. How would we know she's not one of those?

That button leads to the quoted post and in this case to the following statement:
Quote:
Dark Wave is Goth with some ethereal and electronic influences added. It doesn't exist anymore as a Goth subgenre. Dark Wave has for the most part moved away from its Goth roots and is now a seperate genre. Only a minority stay true to the Goth sound today. Examples of "Gothic Dark Wave" are Xymox, Frozen Autumn and Sopor Aeternus.

Pretty typical of the gothic thought processes we experience here.
