I have been dressing pretty scene for a while in terms of outfits (usually wear converse all the time, leggings, and a graphic tee with a bright print on it and some kind of studded/emo bracelet, but I don't have the energy to fully commit to the hair and feel anxious to overdo it with makeup. I also wear Skelanimals clothing a LOT since I have a complete obsession with them...like I'm talking a wallet, 2 purses, 2 jackets and earrings...
I guess my question here is can I still call myself scene if I'm an adult and like lots of parts of the culture (including music) despite not having 100% of the traditional look? I can't get myself to commit to the bangs or full-blown scene makeup, out of both laziness and executive functioning issues, but I do wear bright shades of eyeshadow a lot and commit fully to the clothing/accessories themselves. I feel like such a poser..Β Β
I see so many cool scene people on here and I feel insecure that I don't look scene enough compared to themΒ Β I get so anxious that they will judge me considering I've seen multiple posts on here saying things like "6arelyhuman isn't 'scene' music", "You're not scene if you don't do xyz" etc. I get that scene itself IS a culture of gatekeeping, but any deviation from LuluLemon sweatpants gurl looks emo/scene enough to everyone else so not sure how I'm supposed to feel.
