Emo, Goth, geek chic, into body mods, tattoos, piercings...you know, just alt.

Surely there must be more than just me out there in the wilds of susan's?

I have a number of EGL (Elegant Gothic Lolita) dresses, if that counts?  I haven't had an occasion to wear one in a while sadly (excepting Halloween), but they're there, and fun.

Oooh, forgot about the whole lolita thing, I wish i could carry that off, but i'm not convinced I could.

I'll bet you could.  I wig probly couldn't hurt though; short hair doesn't really work with the style.  Until my hair reached a proper length I had a couple wigs for it.

I probably don't count as alt. I listen sporadically to a handful of folk metal songs and bury myself in fantasy/sci-fi books, and I suspect you're thinking more about the clothing style

That said, I would sooooooo love to have some buckled trousers <3

I've kind of always been from the goth/punk side of things but now I'm just old!!!

I quite like the whole rockerbilly/burlesque thing, I managed to pull off an red polka dot 50s style halterneck dress really rather well last friday

you're never too old Millie, look at vivian westwood

Yeah, I kind of do tbh. I don't really dress old (I'm not even that old) but I do think that I've gotten quite confortable with my own brand of nerdwear!

Geek chic rocks.

I'm a transgendered computer nerd with tattoos, a motorcycle, and a penchant for incorporating female garments into my every day clothing. I have red/black and purple/black striped nylon armwarmers. Hmm... and I really love steampunk things. Does that make me an alt girl?

Woot!  Definitely Emo/Goth.  I generally lean toward Gothic Victorian with a dash of Lolita. 
I don't do it as often as I would like.  I'm never sure if people are staring at me because I'm trans (which I don't like)...or because I'm goth (which I don't mind at all).

<==  Last Halloween I went as a Gothic Fallen Angel.  I'm thinking about maybe doing a cross of goth/steampunk next year.

I'm pretty geeky.  I love oxford shirts and recently bought a pair of houndstooth wellies.  I don't have glasses but I read Stephen Hawking for fun.  I suppose that qualifies me as an alt girl.

LOL!

  I like my piercings..... and I love tattoos although I'm waiting to treat myself until after GRS.

  Yep, I'm more that a little "Alt"   I'm older (40) but I gravitate towards the goth thing. I won't mention my BDSM tendencies ;-)

I have a dragon tattoo, wear semi-military style tops, love tight jeans, and passed very well in goth mode. I'm just too folk-y for goth mode all the time.

My musical tastes must be alternative by today's standards:
Coheed and Cambria, Marina and the Diamonds (not where I got my name, I swear!), Grateful Dead, Erin Bode, Counting Crows, Amy Macdonald, Third Eye Blind, Bob Dylan, The Who, Rancid, The Distillers, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Bela Fleck and the Flecktones...

I have musical ADD 

I would say I'm considered alt in a sense. I definitely associate myself with being a crusty..

maaaybe some hipster tendencies but I'm not ashamed to admit it haha.

I was a super street punk a few years ago grew out of that though.

I have a few plans for tattoos...well more than a few...more like loads.

I really like the fact i can show off the ones i'v already got better than i could before

I don't like tattoos, but I do have plans for a few piercings... somewhere... after SRS. 

I went through a dark / goth / emo thing when I was much younger, but today I'm really just a quiet nerdy girl. (Doesn't mean I don't enjoy some of the more...eccentric... interests with those I know.) 

Steampunk! <3
