Do i offend people?

My mother thought the same way. However I didn't wear black or gravitate towards the goth kids. She just assumed I would. She was worried that I would offend people just by being myself. Kind of fucked up but she just wanted me to fit in.

People find offense in silly places. And no matter how much you try to match the ideas of others, someone will take offense to it. Don't give it a second thought. Who cares if you make someone uncomfortable, that is their problem, not yours.

Don't change, you sound perfect. Here's my number, call me, maybe?

I get you. I tend to gravitate towards dark things too. I just find it so interesting but at the sametime I like cute things. Just be yourself.

If they find it offensive, then they should just stay away from you. I personally don't see why anyone would find it offensive, but then again, there a lots of stupid people in this world.. Anyway, if you don't see anything wrong with the way you are, then there's no need to change. Just live your life and don't care if other are offended or not.

If people don't want to you be who you are, tell them to f*ck off.

If you want to see some dark shit, study criminal justice, and place focus on human trafficking. Also, bestgore.com if you want to test your gag reflex.

Otherwise, if folks are offended by what you do they're probably a bit overly sheltered and could benefit from seeing some thing out if the ordinary.

No need to change, people are different. If you want people to change their opinion of you, it won't happen unless you change, and that doesn't mean you should change.

I don't think your closer to the "dark of the world" more than others, closer to the dark myths and stories, such as vampires, etc shows that.

Liking dark things doesn't make anyone evil, so people won't see you as such, but they may see it as irritating, which people do for no valid reason but it happens.

Dark in the sense of supernatural and dark stories, yes.
Not evil in the main sense that Evil wears a mask of innocence and wouldn't make their likes so known to the public and would dress in ways most would like.

No need to change, there's nothing wrong.

I was just like this as a child and people always thought I was morbid, cruel and insane for it. They thought I would grow up to kill someone and this is the impression most people get. So no it is not that you are offensive it is that you are not so perfect and wholesome and Innocent little kiddies are suppose to be. Be who you want to be since they will always judge you for what you are. This does not make you monster and it does not make you bad. Ignore them and do not change because by doing this you are losing yourself. So do not bend to what the world wants you to confirm to. As long as you are not skinning animals for fun and pinning it on your wall and have dead bodies in your basement this is not really a big deal.

I love it when people decribe themselves ad a goth, and you're thinking.. Okay, so tehy're goth.. and the they're like "But i'm not goth!! " It's like "Once I gave this guy a blowjob... but i'm not gay!!" LOL To answer your question, I don't find it offensive, as long as you're not a little snot like the girl that was in my school. On a different side of the spectrum though, I had a friend who was goth, and a church lady saw all his tattoos and such and told him he was going to hell. This guy was a decent guy, never caused trouble for anyone, but he offended this lady just with his appearance. I think alot of people associate it with teh devil or whatnot so they do see it as a offensive. Or some people may even see it as you trying to stand out and be cool, so in turn they think you're not cool, and then don't like you. I've seen it before. I myself, am the opposite from you. I love bright colours, sunshine, hello kitty. But I don't get offended when I see people like that.. It really depend on the person

i think its best to be yourself and enjoy what you want. and i might know a few books you might like reading, they are crass, with morally flawed characters, and very ugly reads of wonderly dark humored tales. ill brb after i look them up for you

It's totally normal. I think we'd get along very well, we have a lot in common! I am very gothicy though. I love being dark and all things dark. I'm 19, and I've been this way since I was so young. :3

I don't think some people find it offensive, some people are just stupid and maybe scared? No one sits next to me on the bus because of the way I look, they give me funny looks and move on, that kind of thing.I'm not sure really. I may look dark and evil, but I'm probably the sweetest person you'll ever meet. xD

how old are you? lol honestly it depends on that, in this specific matter

It DOES offend others.
In your own words: "my family hates it"

Not only that, but if you actually have your own children one day, and they see this shit, I think you won't hear the end of their screaming.

Seriously its not going to work in the long run.
Writing stories is one thing (a good thing) But having morbid pictures around? VERY strange.

I hope its something you grow out of personally.
Supernatural and fiction (being the same thing) is really meant for teenagers playing around. Once you're older it just won't fit into normal society unless you're going to be an undertaker.

Yes its true I tend to go against the crowd.
But quite obviously I'm on your family's side on this.

For every person you do offend there will be another who likes you that way :) It wouldn't offend me; if anything I think how you act is a good way of filtering intolerant and close-minded people out of your life :P

It doesn't offend me, but then I'm biased. I like this kind of thing. :)

you don't offend anyone at all but I think you already know that

This is not an IIN question So I don't know how to vote, could you clear that up?
