Straightedge abbreviation meant to look badass even though that person obviously fails at being said badass.
Substaining from drugs/alcohol/sex gone horribly wrong when introduced to emo kids who take a dip into being even more scene whorish.
Then they spend their days flaunting it.

short for "straightedge." a term used by hardcore douchebags as an excuse to hide the real reason they don't drink or smoke: they're pussies. if you really were straightedge because you actually believed drinking smoking and sex were wrong, you wouldn't give it a name.
"hey, want a beer?"
"sure! i just say i'm sXe so i can put x's on my hands at hardcore shows!"
"never mind."

Straight Edge. Meaning people who do not drink smoke or have sex. It is just another trend that people have started to follow on their quest to be different from everyone else.
Person 1:"Would you like a drink"
Straight Edge: "Ahem *makes a big scene* NO!! I'm Straight Edge!duuuhhhh I dont drink!"..
Here is that example again in normal curcumstances..
Person 1:"Would you like a drink"
Person 2: "No, thank you"

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.

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.
