Is a witchy phase at all distinguishable from a goth phase?

And then the men/priests say witches are married to satan, rude!

And they say that Goths and Witches are evil. I, as a dude, want to date them. I want to meet women who are strong and independent and need no man. That’s how I know that they want me, not need me.

That’s why we are accused of being the brides of Satan. They can’t imagine how we have gained our power without having that particular male figure in their equation. It’s a hatred of women at its core. Countless knowledge keepers, herbalists and medicine women have been crushed by their hatred of women.
