They are white. You said you were white. Is that racist or chosen-group-identification of you? When I say goths are white, I mean white -- as in white white. White makeup, etc. Goth's are example of self-chosen group-associative identification.

When you say you are white what do you mean?

When LN Smithee said he was "a black man" it was clear that he meant it as a racial identification; it was racist.

Well, on my driver's license, right next to the fact that my eyes are green and I'm five-ten, the word "white" appears.

However, when I whip out the big box of Crayolas, I'm more of a pinkish beige.

After the Festival rehearsal starts, I'll be kind of a goldenrod with a sienna overlay.

I still fail to see racism in stating what is clearly obvious to any who visit my profile page.

Goths aren't all Anglo.

LN Smithee has been around here since Christ was an Alter boy, in my experience he generally has something to add to a discussion,
