sXe, an amazing abbreviation for straightedge / straight edge / straight-edge. it symbolizes making a lifestyle choice, not following some stupid trend, if you're not ready to make the commitment for life, then yeah, maybe you should follow the practices, but you're not quite there yet. sXe people refrain from using drugs, alcohol, and tobacco (considered a drug by the way). they also refrain from having premarital sex. in some extreme cases I've even heard of people abstaining from using "foul language" , i.e. swearing which a lot of people did while defining this term...yep yep.
it is also my understanding that the movement was started by Minor Threat with some of their song lyrics, and that the "x"s represent the "x"s that minors had to wear on their hands when in clubs to listen to the bands so that bartenders knew they couldn't have alcohol (some hardcore straightedges tattooed "x" on their hands so that they could show the world who/what they are).
God is not a poison, and should not be avoided as such by straight edge people, many people even choose to use God as their reason for being sXe.

Kids who, after having exhausted all means of shocking the "straight" world, have decided that the only recourse left is to become aggressively straight themselves. Generally describes hopeless losers who will continue to more or less abstain from drink, drugs and sex until some new fad or celebrity tells them to do otherwise.
I be hardcore sXe except on the weekends when I drink 9 quarts of apple martini and go trolling for skank.

sXe is an abbreviation for straight edge. meaning no drugs, alcohol, or sex. it is usually accompanied by a big black X on the hand. emo guys are accosiated with being straight edge because they are supposedly 'girly', but truly anyone can be straight edge.

A form of pseudo-religion formulated by secular moralists as an alternative to Christianity. Indoctrinating the youth with this fad ensures a docile population that will reach maturity never knowing that what they regard as 'rebellious' or 'against the grain' is simply another method of control devised by their bourgeois masters.
Flip that 'x' you've drawn on your hand upside-down. Resembles a crucifix, does it not?
'sxe' is the atheistic alternative to Christian slavery.

What little fuckers call themselves to try and be all cool and hardcore, but they really are pussies who are scared of drugs or something. Straightedgers have no fun.
