Is everything I know wrong? D: (G)

Hi everyone,

Recently, to be blunt, I realized that all it really is in Lolita now a days are people like this:

-refreshs ap homepage- MUST GET THE NEW AP DRESS WHEN IT COMES IN STOCK OR I WILL DIE

OMG WANNA TWIN IN AP?

I LOVE THIS NEW AP DRESS

LOL MILKY CHAN!

OMG SUGARY CARNIVAL

MELTY CHOCOLATE IS TO DIE FOR!

See a pattern going on (and yes, caps was necessary :P)? All it is now is Angelic Pretty. It makes me sad. I mean, by no means is there actually something wrong with it but...I feel alone. I really feel that im one of the 10 gothic lolitas out of the 12,000+ lolitas out there (of course, 10 is an exageration). See i noticed that people are starting to slowly branch out of the lolita aesthetic, after all, it is based on victorian/rococo little children's clothing. Sadly, victorian/rococo kids did not actually wear things perhaps the way we do now but, emphasis on based. Do you really think that kids in the victorian/rococo would wear pink, red, candies, ruffles, lace (okay, you got me, im pretty sure they wore alot of lace :P) and friggin deer on their dresses? I doubt it.

I really miss lolita when it was just starting out, all it was was A-lines in dark colors with a frilly white yoke. Now a days, even on Mary Magdalene or Victorian Maiden you can not find that stuff, it's like ancient now or something.

I know what all you AP lovers are going to say: 'if you don't like AP, don't look, gosh.' Well first of all, no matter where i turn in the lolita communities...there is AP o-o. I like AP (never in my life would i ever wear it and actually feel comfortable in it though xD) but...that's all lolita is now a days D: If you go up to a random person and ask what lolita is, you'll get 1 of 4 options

1. What's lolita? The book you mean?

2. Oh you mean those chicks who dress like little girls to attract men? (i hope no one will ever be given this answer D:)

3. Oh well, gothic lolita is lots and lots and lots and lots of black, short skirts, sexy looking shirts, and looots of black. (Admitdly, this is the opinion of most anime fans who dont know about lolita)

4. Oh you mean those girls who always dress in pink and red with giant poofy skirts and candies on their dresses?

It's a bit sad. I personally try to keep my lolita toned down, but its sometimes fun to go overboard but i know that im going overboard, and in my opinion overboard is jumping over the boundary of what little kids would wear =\.

Now if you wear AP or something 'over the boundary' I'm not gonna automatically hate you and troll you or anything, in fact i most likely won't think much of it but i just wish it was back to the old days D:

Although I'm complaining about all this, it makes me feel kinda special in the fact that i stand out ('cause irl i really don't xD) but at the same time i feel bad because i don't necessarily 'fit in' either. Like I'm afraid a group of AP-holics are going to exclude me in their tea parties if I wear h-naoto or something(not that there are any lolitas where I live to begin with =\). Maybe I'm paranoid? Hm...

Anyway, pointless rant that is pointless is over :3

also, why are most itas anime fans attemping goffik rorita? (engrish is necessary)

Chao, Gabi

p.s. un lolita related but how many of you love len's dress in imitation black? Not really lolita but it's still awesome xD (although in fate:rebirth there's much more lolita influence in his outfit o3o)
