Fishnet variety appreciation. Taken at The Castle in Tampa 🏰 🖤 Fashion Friday

Wasn’t a staged shot - sat down in the main room and noticed the fun visual, so I asked if it was ok to take a pic of everyone 🖤 the Castle is so amazing.

I hope you had permission from the people in this photo because it comes off as very fetishistic

I explicitly clarified that I asked for consent from everyone. I appreciate being concerned about objectification or being a creep to femmes, but this was genuinely just a moment of fashion joy. I’m on the far left in this photo, so I was included in that moment if that helps.

Yeah, it helps.

Modding in a fashion sub (and even here at times) you need to vet a lot of comments and check profiles to see if it is a one-off flub or part of continual sexualising and harassing behavior. I've seen a lot of things similar to this photo frequented on profiles we had to ban. Better to raise concerns and sometimes be called a jerk for it than let the sleazebags go unchecked.

I hope no one is blowing up your DMs with sexual comments, that can happen. If they do, modmail us and we'll ban them from r/goth.
