What would happen if they chose to follow the Right Hand Path? Would they cease to be Goth? If so, which aesthetic would they take?

Left hand path isn’t about being edgy coomer, it’s about breaking boundaries of normalcy by forcing oneself to engage in atrocities and shameful acts. It is definitely not the stuff of narcissistic, histrionic, politically correct women.

No it isnt, though it can incorporate that.
LHP is about forging your own path. Expand the path metaphor.
RHP is following the paths alreay laid out. Nice, wide, regular, easy to follow.
LHP is going "Hey, I'm going to make a new path over here." It's finding another way to get to the top of the mountain. Sometimes that means "breaking the rules" of previous paths.
But the point of LHP isnt just to be a contrarian snot.

Here, another visual example of the concept in sports: the high jump.

The beginning of the record keeping, people were doing what seemed natural to jump as high as they couild - lifting their legs up and over the bar.
RHP was getting better and better and better at this.
Then someone on the LHP went
>hey, if i lean sideways and spin, I dont have to get my legs to go as vertical to clear the same bar
and the Western Roll was created. A new path.
And then more and more people started following that path, and what used to be new and LHP became the standard RHP method.
Then again, someone with the skill and desire to do more than just be the best on the standard path, figure out the Straddle method.
And then Dick Fosbury casually blew them all out of the water, and everyone switched over to the new paradigm.
Perhaps high jump will someday have another on the LHP who figure out an even better way.
But until then, everyone is stuck in the present path just trying to perfect it.

Spiritual paths are kind of similar, although I wouldnt say they have the same measuring method. It isnt that newer spiritual traditions are "jumping higher" than old ones. Just finding alternate ways for different people to reach the same summit.

Goth girls are huge posers, almost as much as punks but not quite as bad. They will look at you in horror if you even so much as utter a traditionally evil thought. They balk at any action that isn't safe edgy, it's pathetic.
