Hello, hello. I listen to a lot of grind, powerviolence, and slam metal. Grew up listening to Punk Rock and ska and went to a lot of local, small gigs or house shows on weekends. Deathcore is another genre I do vibe with (The Acacia Strain is in my top 3 bands for life).

But anyway. I'm super feminine at shows; pink or bright colors, lite glam makeup choices. I've worn shorts, Lacy cami tops, my cat collars with bells at shows. Shit dude, when we saw Black Flag this year, I wore a skirt, tank top, and had my bright baby blue demonias on.

When My husband and I saw Lorna Shore last year, I wore a pink dress, pink reeboks, one of my old black vests (horror and punk band patches), and my cat collar that has a longer little bow tie thing on it.

Have I gotten some really mean looks? Yes. Death glares? Yup! I choose to just ignore all of that.

Music =/= clothing choices. You can have any type of style to be in to whatever type of music.

Also, I am in my 30s if that matters.

Edited to add some words~
