I presume that no one is born goth. How could that be possible?

What age do kids turn goth?

In most cases it all depends when one is introduced to the Goth subculture. I became Goth when I was 15 but only started to go out when I was about 18 in the scene itself. I already saw some very young Goths of 12 or 13 years old but in most countries they have restrictions in going out. Most become Goth in their teenage years but there are exceptions of course.

This is exactly why we need a Landover website for kids! Steer them to God instead of Goth before they head out and start cross-dressing, doing the drugs, and joining in sodomite orgies where they get the AIDS!

Around the age of 11 / 12. Though it's getting younger and younger due to (anti)social networking websites such as Bebop and VampireGeeks.

So going out is what does it? I went out with several girls (those were the days) but none of us ever turned goth.

Brother Nobar, that is probably because none of those girls had A.I.D.S.

There is a big difference between going out with good Christian girls, and going out with weight-challenged losers who lack any adequate interpersonal skills.

I must say this holds a little bit of truth, due the internet it became more easy to to find stuff about Goth, whether this is an positive evolution I don't know at this point. Back when I was finding my Goth side the scene was more underground and parties were only known to those who went out in the scene, so you had to be introduced more or less to it by friends (or find a partyflyer in some music stores). The net made it more easy to find out where the parties are, this also attracts more posers who think they are Goth.

In the days before the widespread internet it was indeed parties who made one realize he/she was a Goth, most people were taken along with friends to Gothparties. Nowadays the people can inform themselves via the internet so they going out thing is more or less dissapeared.
