By any chance is there a male side to the gothic lolita culture?
or do we just try and look like jrockers?

Gothic and lolita bible are cool, if you live in usa, then it might be 20 dollars or more unless you find the right place. xp I read them. Mostly look at the pictures intill I get on top of my japanese lessons. xp xp

If you're like me and worship both all things from Japan AND doll-style, gothic clothing, it is SOOO worth it. I'd poured over tons of scans from them before actually setting my hands on one, so when I did, it was just amazing to actually flip through it. (Here's a great place to find scans.)

Does anyone know if there's a translated version of the Gothic Lolita Bible? Cuz I don't know that much Japanese... xp  

[Lila Malvae]

If I ever subscribe, I have a friend who is almost fluent in Japanese who I might be able to translate for me... if I do that then I'll post things for you.

sounds interesting 3nodding if you buy it could you scan some pages from it please?

Just look them up. there are plenty websites with G&LB page scans.

And to Eruanion's question, there are EGLs - elegant gothic lolitas, and EGAs - elegant gothic aristocrats. The latter being the male portion. So you can stick to the jrocker thing, or give EGA-ing a whirl. ^_^

You can't forget the kodama (I think that's it. XD) group, which is sort of like EGA, but more young boy-esque with short pants and such from what I've seen.

And the Gothic & Lolita Bible is definately worth buying. Fujisan.com is a great supplier of it among other EGL magazines, and I find that they're cheaper including shipping than Jpophouse.com.

As for scans, I've only got 2 EGL/lolita magazines and have scanned some of the fashion images "only" from them. ゴスロリ magazine scans and Gothic & Lolita Bible Extra.

Eh, I sure hope I've been helpful in some way.

And if you take any of my scans and put them somewhere else on the web, please credit me. (T~T);;
