And once again I have to stand up for my geriatric goth-ass: I
challenge any youth to last longer on the dance floor than me. I'm a
dance instructor, most of my students are younger than me, and I
regularly kick their asses in class. And I have many elder-goth friends
who can even outlast me on the dance floor. Maybe we're not
representative of the age-group, but isnt' this the goth community
where most folks are atypical anyway? Maybe this is just the common
mis-belief. It may seem like the kids danced more, but maybe there were
just more of them.
