Emos are stereotyped as people who have dark hair (usually black) that covers most of their face, they wear black eyeliner,black nail polish,converse,skinny jeans or"girl pants",&tight shirts(usually band t's).People think they listen to bands considered to be"emo"&think emos are depressed all the time&are suicidal&self-harm..Totally untrue.Not all emos are like that.Emos are people who feel emotions very strongly.Hint: emo=emotion.Whether it be happy,sad,mad, etc.They listen to whatever they want to&they don't have to dress or look a certain way!Yes, a lot of them may look like a stereotypical emo kid, but they're just wearing what they want. Sometimes they express themselves through clothing and makeup.Others do the same thing.Also,not all emos cut.Some do,some don't.Cutting(one of the many forms of Self-Harm),beingsuicidal,writing,going off alone,anything else you all would label as"emo"behaviors,they do it as a way to express their emotion or release what they feel&just because someone cuts it doesn't mean they're emo(people do it to cope with depression, just like people use alcohol to cope with it,and they need help.So next time you hear of someone harming themselves,think twice before you call them"a whiny emo fag"or something because that's what bullies do and we all need to stop bullying).Not all emos listen to"emo"bands and singers and wear dark clothing all the time and darkmakeup and shitand are depressed all the time. Stop stereotyping people.
Me: "If you all can't see what emo is by reading my definition, then I don't know what to do.
Two things I'd like to say though:
1.) Stop stereotyping people.
2.) Stop bullying emos...And don't just stop bullying emos. Stop bullying gays, people with disabilities, people you all label as 'nerds', people who self harm...Stop bullying EVERYONE. You don't know what people are going through. Their lives are hard enough and they don't need you to make it worse because you could drive them to suicide (which isn't funny AT ALL)."

Get the Emo mug.A stereotypical phase the majority of white teenagers go through from the ages of 12-18 where an obsession with BVB and BVB related genre music blooms due to no cognitive thinking on a music level . Also usually the stage in life shortly before they realize they have to grow up, get a job, & that attention seeking in the adult world will get them nowhere but a mental institution.
"Look at that shit emo, cutting for attention because they couldn't get the new BOTDF album from mom."

Get the emo mug.alright. lemme clear some stuff up.
1. most emo kids don't cut themselves
2. they don't hate everyone, people just have bad opinions on them so they avoid people.
3. emo music is not shit. they literally save lives. look it up.
4. please. please. please. do not judge a person by their outfit or haircut.
5. emo music doesn't make people mad or upset, it actually calms them down and makes them happier. there have been scientific studies done.
if you see a person you think is emo, give them space. don't be up in their face about your opinion about them. they don't care about what you think, and they have a right to live too.
