A few friends sent me this article:

Behind the black hair dye and white make-up goths are simply art lovers, who aspire to middle-class values, says a new study. Is that right?

As a grown up goth kid, I love something positive being said about the goth kids. Dammit, the goth kids were the smart ones! Dumb kids don’t read poetry and use the word sanguine. And yes, you have to be at least middle class to be goth. Velvet corsets and knee boots are expensive!

So that combination-smart and at least middle class is probably a bigger indicator of success rather than what music you listen to. Oh you silly research!
