Is it weird to wear kandi if I'm not a raver?

Hello guys! I was wondering if it's weird to wear kandi if I'm not a raver. I'm a scene/emo kid and in this community it's really common to wear kandi obviously. I think it looks really cool but I'm very unsure about wearing it. I'm not a raver and I don't really like techno music. I love the community, the meaning of PLUR and the idea of trading kandi. And of course it's really fun to make it. But I am not really planning to go to a rave. I feel like when I wear kandi people will gatekeep me because I'm not a raver (even if I'm not calling myself raver)...idk I'm just very unsure :/

Raves are cool but they're too loud and bright for me to ever want to go to one, never stopped me from making kandi tho cool

Dw it's not weird at all XD

The way I see it is that if you respect PLUR wear as much kandi as you please. Not everyone wants/can rave and that is completely ok!
