I want to set the record straight of SO MANY PEOPLE being TERRIBLE to the stereotype of emo.
Emo does not mean you cut your self. It doesn't mean you wear skinny jeans, or tight shirts, or messed up shoes or greasy hair.
There are certain people in the world that don't care what others think of them too much, truly. They actually do like the color black, and while other people might not see their issues as important, somethings are backed with painful memories that are very important. just because their hair is black, or covers their face, doesn't mean they do it just for the sake of having it. A lot of people truly like the style.
A lot of emos ARE artistic, because most commonly being emo is when you're more in touch with yourself then other people your age. In fact, most of the people who are emo don't even classify themselves as emo becuase labels are not necessary.
If you cut yourself, it doesn't mean your emo, and if you don't it doesn't mean you aren't. The two things have nothing to do with each other!
Emo was originally short of emotional, in a musical genre sense. As it developed into a 'label', it means the same. A lot of emo people feel extreme emotions whether they be happy or sad.
I will admit there are emo posers, who cut themselves and dress for the sake of seeming badass, but some people seriously like the style!
Don't be mean about it, because what if I constantly stereoptyped and made fun of you? How would you feel?

Fake: Scratches wrists to make it look like they have scars, reads definitions on urban dictionary to find out how to be emo, goes around saying they're emo
Real: Dresses how they want, acts how they want, aren't influenced too easily, very in touch with who they are, a lot are very artistic and have real issues that are very important to them. or maybe the don't have issues, they're just a very in touch, artistic person

Get the emo mug.Often associated with gothic, but a fake cheap demeaning version. Something that annoys everyone that isnt emo. Something thick people take up to fit in, much like cigarettes. Started off as a music genre, went out of control. Someone who calls themself emo immediately degrades themself. A phase. Ruining the world. Has anyone noticed that you cant do anything without someone calling you emo? Like now if you dye your hair black, paint nails black, be alone for a while, dont smile often, or wear a bit more black than the average person, YOU ARE EMO. It is very frustrating for people who did these things BEFORE emo even became this epidemic, like me, because they put effort in to be something they are not, but i do it naturally and people think im trying to be emo. I get called emo all the time, but the people who call me it are stupid idiots that are only making the crisis worse. You know what? People call NAPOLEON DYNAMITE emo! THAT IS INSANE!!!!!! Like WTF?!?!?! Its napoleon dynamite for fuck sake! You know what else? The rolling stones got called emo! ACDC got called emo! Judas priest got called emo! Its so hard these days for people to tell whether someone is a tryhard emo poser or not. I HATE EMO. You should hate emo. It is destroying teenagers and uniquity. It cheapens everything. It demeans everything. Its so SIMPLE. Do you want to be SIMPLE? Do you want to be BORING? Do you want people to roll their eyes everytime you are mentioned? If not, then please resist from being emo. The only person that can stop it before it gets out of contol, is you. Think about it.
**DEATH TO EMO**
**DEATH TO EMO**
One way an emo is created:
girl: that boy over there has long black hair that covers his face. He wears nail polish. He wears make up. WOW he is so in touch with his feminine side. He is so unique! Im gonna go ask him out.
*girl walks up to emo poser cock boy*
emo poser cock boy: What do you want? To steal my soul with your vulgar bullying? ...even know i dont know what that means.
girl: no i want you, your so... different.
emo poser cock boy: okay but only if you become emo and cut yourself. Only then wil i let into my blackened soul
girl: okay i have to go now and follow emo stereotypes. bye
emo poser cock boy: bye...
*girl walks off*
emo poser cock boy: wow girls really like this emo thing. I better be more emo and follow even more strerotypes!
This is just one of the many ways this stupid disease spreads and gets worse.

Get the emo mug.a word to describe a scene of people who listen to angsty, hormonal music centred around depression and hate. Relief and a sense of belonging is captured in listening to such music. Identified by wearing band tops(or if that's too unhip, vintage tops)usually brown or black. But extremists can wear v.bright clothes, simply patterend though, none of the hippy hysteria.yellow nail varnish is popular, and bows on heads. They often have either v dark hair(dyed).Cartoon drawing is common, and an obsession with Gerard Way.They hardly ever smile, because they have misguided conception that that brings out artiness and mysteriousness in them.However, on the bright side they are often very imaganitive and always anti-prejudice people.

Get the emo mug.Short for the word emotional. The word originated in the DC with the Band Rites Of Spring. The band called the fans emo because of the style of their music.Nowadays, people consider emo as a lable to people who are generally depressed and very romantic. Even though some people that are emo arent really depressed but enjoy the emo music and the clothing style. Most emos skateboard and shop at Hot Topic TM.Some emo bands are Taking back sunday, and dasboard confessional. If you wanna talk to a emo kid im this sn Xucantsavemex56.
