Beliefs ushered in through the lyrics and then-beliefs of Ian Mackaye (Teen Idles, Minor Threat era). Although he exclaims fervently that he did not mean to start a movement, and defended himself in the second version of "Out of Step", it did spark a movement.
Basic Beliefs:
No drinking
No smoking
No promiscuous sex
Newer Innovations:
Atheism - idea of "think don't pray"
Veganism / Vegetarianism
Exemption from Painkillers, Caffine etc.
Hardline Ethic
Symbols:
xXx - supposedly for each of the main beliefs
sXe - straight edge abbreviation
X on the hands - typically seen at shows
x *lame screename* x - seen in every aim window
Types of Edge Kids:
1) The one who knows straight edge is a personal lifestyle and keeps his beliefs to himself
2) Pseudo edge kid, who puts x's on his hands at every show, goes vegan, and sells out the following month
3) Hardline kid - tries to force edge on others, just a meathead who has no idea of the positive nature straight edge is supposed to be
Edge Bands:
Gorilla Biscuits
Chain of Strength
Judge
Strife
Earth Crisis

"I was reliving all those times we shared, and it's hard,
because you used to be so strong but time has changed you.
You turned away.
I keep trying to escape from the past.
But those days used to mean so much.
We stood side by side and nothing else mattered.
We were straight edge and at least I still am."
Excerpt from "The Decline" by Champion

A term used by trans-phobic people usually in the late teens to early twenties to describe themselves. Ew.

A preference for cisgender people made by cisgender people, who think it's a sexuality, because they don't understand they don't hate to date a trans people. In reality it's just a transphobia and dehumanization of trans people, not a sexual orientation.
Megan: Would you date a trans girl?
Jake: I wouldn't because I'm super straight
Megan: You know, you don't have to make a "sexuality" to just not date trans people, just say you're not comfortable with dating someone because of what's in their pants
Jake: Oh... So I'm just straight
Jake: I wouldn't because I'm super straight
Megan: You know, you don't have to make a "sexuality" to just not date trans people, just say you're not comfortable with dating someone because of what's in their pants
Jake: Oh... So I'm just straight
