'''Goth''' is a term often given to a style of music, a type of dress, and a subculture; all of which were originally derived from bands such as Siouxsie & The Banshees in the 1980's. Goth fashion typically consists of a conspicuous affection for black clothing, black hair dye, pale skin, and striking application of cosmetics, though this general fashion style is not exclusive to goths nor necessarily used by all goths. It is often labeled as [[Satan]]ic or anti-[[Christian]] in nature, although a large Christian Goth community exists, and Goths are not necessarily anti-Christian.
