somebody who adopts the ethics and lifestyle of straight edge just to be cool. It may be done to hold a moral high-ground over your peers, or just a reason to combat your homo-erotic feelings by punching somebody in the face, a means of justification if you will.
Teen-edgers may claim to like Minor Threat, but only because their friends do.
Drink's Pepsi because it's ethically made, according to what the person with the highest scene points says.

Somnebody who follows the straight edge philosophy. That is, a person who respects their body
*by not consuming alocohol
*by not consuming other drugs
* by not having casual sex.
Some straight edgers are also vegan(or vegetarian) but this has nothing to do with being straight edge.
Some edgers (the abbreviation for straight edgers)have become sxe (the abbreviation for straight edge) because it is "cool" but most recognise it is a healthy, mature way of life.
Straight edgers, in my opinion (I'm edge), should not try and convert people or force them into becoming straight edge, because it is a life style choice.

1. A person who does not drink, smoke, abuse drugs of any kind, or have meaningless sex (read: the majority of people, most of whom do not define themselves by the fact that they do not partake in any of the aforementioned activities. But hey... you'll have maniac fringe in any group).
2. Trendy fucks who drop the ideology after about two months.
3. Militant dipshits who are too goddamn ignorant to see that the only thing that separates them from Conservative politicians is the suit and tie.

An incorrect laymen's term used to identify individuals who subscribe to the straight edge philosophy.
"Straight edger" is often used in place of the more correct identifier of "one who is straight edge".
The cacophonous term is akin to describing one with Christian beliefs as a "Christianer", one with Jewish beliefs as a "Jewer", one with Mormon beliefs as a "Mormoner".
Or one who uses the term as an "idioter".

Those straight edgers sure do get a bad rap! Handsome devils they are, and they smell of clean laundry too!
I'm sure glad those straight edgers beat up those Juggalos!
