We chose pictures where she is wearing her favorite gothic dresses and traditionally gothic make up. Because of the stigma surrounding the gothic community, the \u201cgothic lolita\u201d profile received many messages that were more sexually charged than the messages that were received on the other profiles. It seemed as though the responders saw her more as a caricature of a person rather than a real human who deserved respect. Out of the 65 replies, 15 were disturbingly explicit and referenced \u201cdark sex.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>51 of the responses were a mix of typical greetings such as \u201chey\u201d and \u201chow are you,\u201d and some went as far as to say she seemed interesting and they wanted to get to know her better. They were courteous and didn\u2019t limit her to just her gothic lolita dress.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s see how the party girl compares in <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.winona.edu\/improving-our-world\/2014\/12\/11\/traipsing-through-tinder-party-girl\/\">the next post<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>&#8211;Samantha Atkins, <span style=\"font-size: small;\">Clare Arvidson and Mike McArdle<\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This blog post is a continuation of Traipsing Through Tinder and contains some explicit material that some may find triggering. \u201cI am a woman of mystery and creativity.
