I do not understand this whatsoever

Not sure what a Christian autumn girl is, or what they share in common with goth girls...

The kind of girl that wears a flannel shirt and puffy vest with leggings and leather riding boots. It's a good look, but far too common. There are other variations like a wide brim hat with a cardigan and jeans. Just Google Pumpkin Spice Latte girl.

They're typically Christian. Context clues, dude

They are typically Christian but this is the first time I've seen it use with this stereotype

[–] uis@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I mean why not agnostic or atheist?

Maybe it's a USA thing, but they typically are insulated conservative people who have disposable income. The clothing style is a stereotype of a specific group of women which just so happens to also be conservative/religious. Women outside of this group might still dress this way, but most that I've met thought that the style was cute, but over used and also didn't like the stereotype that comes with that style.

It's so pronounced a stereotype that you can go to some events and find >50% of the women wearing the same brands of the same clothes with maybe some difference in color selection.

You know, Han Solo cosplayers.

Okay so... what's this gotta do with goth girls

[–] Knightfox@lemmy.one 13 points 11 months ago

It's playing on a stereotype, but the stereotype is that the two groups are very different but both enjoy Fall. Goth girls, in this stereotype, may be into it for Halloween, spiritual, or pagan stuff. The other group, in the stereotype, enjoy it for cute clothes, Thanksgiving, and pumpkin spice seasoning.

I think it's just a nice way of saying "pumpkin spice latte fans"

The term used to be "basic bitches" before the PC Police Order-66'd that one.

Basic white bitches
