How could you like or dislike somebody simply because of how they look? I mean, if you have a phobia of their appearance, or find yourself repulsed by their ugliness, then you've got a legitimate reason to not like them. But otherwise there are so many factors to a person that you cannot possibly know about simply by looking at them. For instance:

-Personality.
-Accent.
-Sexuality. (bit of a grey area though)
-Interests.

The list goes on.

Ask yourself now, what have you ever gained by indentifying somebody as a goth?What does the name "goth" tell you other than roughly what someone might dress like?

I think you'll find your answer will be "nothing".

Wow you know that the person is a goth and therefore wears black, and might possibly like heavy metal. Hooray.
