Well i dress the way i want but a lot of my clothes are based on the music i listen to.
But it isn't because of the music i wear them. I love the way my clothes look and how i dress cause i wouldn't wear them if i didn't but it's great it reflects on the music.
The chavs at my school can't stand people wearing anything but matching tracksuits and bling bling as they call it.
So me and ma mates get a lot of hassle and the normal bullying but i don't let it get on top of me.
Although my friend committed suicide a few weeks ago because of bullies and i am so happy she didn't die cause i don't know what i would've done. All because we don't want to follow their way of life or look like clones of them.

And about metal detectors i can't even get through the security things at certain theme parks without having to remove the belt off my skirt or trousers or my chains.
As for the airport in Turkey there are loads of security checks to go through so just as i have put ma belt back on i have to remove it again.

I wear tight pants (Levi 30,32 slim), band shirts, and zip up hoodies.

I do not have a scene haircut nor do I wear girl clothes. Do I get **** for my dress? on occasion from the local "thugz" but 99% of the time I make a joke about it. I'll say something like I'd be golden in New Orleans right now, they laugh, I laugh and there is an understanding.

If it bothers you so bad, than don't dress like that. If you like those clothes than suck it up.

Lol- I dont wear actual "metal" stuff, just t-shirts with metal bands on them, wristbands, headband etc. I agree with you about dressing the way you want, and I also like my clothes and think it's cool that they represent my taste in music.
There's chavs in my school too, and I do kinda stand out, but I dont really get hassle about it. It's such a shame about your friend- is she okay now?

Hypnotised or Mesmerized · 11-04-2005, 03:05 PM

Yeah she's okay but they are giving her anti depressants and to me she isn't the same person
She hardly smiles now and i don't really know what to do
She gets criticised for everything she does.
What way she wears her hair or what trousers she wears why don't they just give her a break you know.
Any suggestions how to cheer her up i'm quite worried

I dress in ripped up clothes, so it looks like i just got mauled by a bear. so people dont give me a lot of ****.

blackTshirt · 11-04-2005, 04:00 PM

the way i dress doesn't "offend" anyone
like teachers are only pissed off if you wear jeans that are too low and shirts that are too small.. and i usually try to wear my low jeans with my longer shirts so it's all good

though i understand teachers that get mad when they see little girls looking like hookers in school.. it's just not right, even though it has nothing to do with the grade they should get.. like the way you dress shouldn't affect that.. but it's wrong to dress and wear as much make up like britney spears when you're 13.. it does affect your brain a lot

but regarding "rockers" and "hip hoppers" i don't think they really bother anyone with their appearance
though i think it's overrated... to dress in a certain way and call yourself a rocker just cause you listen to rock.. i think rockers are those who make rock music.... not those who wear an iron maiden shirt...

I'm wearing an Iron Maiden shirt right now-lol. I wear rock shirts because I love the music so much that it reflects who i am.

blackTshirt · 11-04-2005, 04:06 PM

that's good
you know what i meant
that i wasn't talking 'bout you
hehe
like it's the same kinda thing when you see a kid wearing a south park shirt and you're all excited and he's like "oh.. those cartoons" and you go like "YOU F*CK THEY'RE NOT JUST CARTOONS"

that kinda thing
