Followers of the goth scene seem connected to each other, no matter in what region of the world they live. The goth community establishes and maintains these connections by use of traveling (to celebrations such as the Whitby Gothic Weekend), commerce, and media (especially with the Internet). According to Hodkinson, people in the goth scene are able to tell who else is like them, even without judging solely on appearances, causing us to infer that there is a sense of shared attitude and outlook on life or something beyond having similar fashion and music tastes.
Discussion Question: What other subcultures experience a similar connection followers of the goth scene have?
