On topic I have not seen covered that would be most helpful is aging and the gothic subculture. Yes, by far it *is* a youth culture. But some of us are well into our 40s and 50s and still adhere to the dark aesthetic. A person can still live their gothic lifestyle beyond the clubbing years in graceful elegance and not become a mockery in age inappropriate and body type inappropriate attire for both men and women.
Home decor would also be a wonderful addition to a second "Gothic Charm School" book. Voltaire's books are nice but give a more dorm room or "my first apartment" look than most older goths may be comfortable with, especially if they have kiddlings running around.
