What is Baby Bat?
1.
Nooby to the goth culture. Usually identifyable by overdone clown makeup, Marilyn Manson/Slipknot/Korn tee shirts, and token Wiccanism.
Is that a Goth?
Not yet, she's just a baby-bat.
2.
A derogatory term used for describing someone new to the goth lifestyle; usually confused about what it is. The term can be interchanged with poseur. A baby bat is typically someone, from the age of 13-19, attempting to become part of goth culture. Led by the misconceptions of mainstream media and the public in general, a baby bat will assume goth is something it isn't. Only a few baby bats will come to pierce the superficiality and evolve into true gothdom.
Man, look all the baby bats at this MCR concert!
Quiet! I'm sure they'll cut themselves if we tell them they're not goth!

Baby bats are usually a new-comer to the gothic world or just a little brat trying to become goth.
A baby bat is what most of the over twenty goths call the younger goths, especially the poser ones, whos soul intent is to destory the gothic name.
"Look deary, that child is trying to be goth."
"What a pity, these baby bats are killing their sterotypes."
