Someone who listens to rock/punk/alternative/emo music, which includes bands like Fall out boy, My Chemical Romance, Panic! At the disco, three days grace and Green day. Emos normally express themselves through the way they dress E.g: Band t-shirts, skinny jeans, meanies, converses and dark clothing.
Some emo stereotypes are: being un-sociable, being dramatic, being suicidal, being depressed and sad.
However, these are STEREOTYPES and do not apply to all Emos.

Get the Emo mug.A subculture in which you can see people wearing lots of black, ripped clothing with black hair, eyeliner, and piercings. They do not seem to care what other people think a lot of the time and wear lots of dark clothing. They generally have an aura of depressiveness and/or angst about them and can be antisocial all of the time or sometimes because of their nature or personal experiences in their past. Emo music is generally music that has an underlying message of hating oneself, or hating what they have become or talking about death, self harm, or other forms of pain. It is typically a bit softer than hard rock, but more hardcore than pop or easy listening rock. Emos also typically self harm themselves, mainly because they are of the mindset that they hate themselves. Obviously not every emo self harms, and not every emo self harms for that reason, but it is very common.
An emo should NOT be mistaken as the same thing as a goth. Goths wear lots of vampirical dress, and are generally more interested in the evil, satanic sort of thing. Emos are upset at themselves or the world and are closed off, they aren't necessarily unfriendly though, lots of emos I know are very nice, but they are typically not the type to be all outgoing and bubbly.

I'm an emo, I wear thick eyeliner and I cry alone in my room everyday, and if you have a problem with me then leave because I have been through enough hell to deal with you.

Get the Emo mug.A word heartless people use to either describe themselves (which may actually make them just attention whores) or people who are "controversial" in their beliefs(that makes the person using emo an idiot, a bigot, and a person whom we can only describe as a mini me of Donald trump, easily hated, could be even easier murdered)
Person 1: I'm such an emo, I cry and cut twenty times a day. (Liar)
Person 2: Who cares about that emo kid? He thinks Fetty Wapp is stupid.

Get the Emo mug.An emo is someone who has long hair, usually covering one eye or both, and wears black skinny jeans, band t-shirts, and beanies, as well as having a ton of bracelets. They usually listen to bands like My Chemical Romance, Bullet For My Valentine, or something of that genre (emo). They may or may not wear makeup as well as a large amount of black eyeliner (both males and females). Not all emos cut themselves, they are not devil worshippers, and they aren't all depressed. While there are some cringy losers that call themselves emo, for the most part, emos are pretty cool. Emos are like any other clique. There are some asswipe emos and there are some friendly emos.
Asswipe emo: My life sucks, nobody understands me, I want to die, angst angst angst.
Normal Emo: Gerard Way is our lord and savior.
