Emo

"Emo IS a music genre that started in the 1980's called "Emocore". Some people like to dress in the "Emo" style. The society thinks about them as failures; that they are not strong enough to hide their emotions, they're sensitive, shy, introverted, and often quiet. The term 'emo' itself is used nowadays as an insult. Emocore is COMPARED (not is) with pop boy bands of 1990s. Critics cast the music as lacking any artistic merit and that the fashion is just a fashion used to drive girls attention. The ones who are emo not because they feel it, but because they like to be trendy are named 'posers'. A big percent of the current emo subculture is formed by posers. Emo subculture is acused that it is celebrating self-harm. in recent years the media has linked the Emo scene closely with issues of cutting and self-harm, but in reality there is no medical or cultural link that connects it to any one social group. Self-harming stems from some serious mental illnesses, namely borderline personality disorder, and is also carried out by people who are suffering, or who have suffered from significant trauma or emotional upset. Cutting is also usually linked to other psychological symptoms such as depression, social phobia and extreme anxiety. When you look at the medical reasons behind cutting and self-harming, it is impossible to suggest it affects any one group of individuals, and so claiming that somehow a fundamental part of the Emo culture is very misleading."

emo

people who hate themselves and whine too much about the little things. their hair covers most of their face and they try to be original eventhough they arent. they cut their wrists and call everyone who calls themselves emo "posers"
but overall they are really nice people, they just have issues.

Nobody knows what emo is.

Ive seen people who are depressed get called emo. If i could choose what emo is, it would be a depressed kid, but theres a whole lot of stuff on here saying that its about music and people that cut themselves and wear black. So, I dont think anybody really knows what it is.

I agree with the things that say that being a non-conformist is being emo now.

Being different is being the same.
Guy: Im Gonna be different and become emo
Guy 2: Me Too
Guy 3: Me Too
Guy 4: You're a Fuckin' idiot.

Emo

The worlds biggest group of whiny emotional pinpricks that never shut up about how much their life sucks, then they drive away in their Benz with My Chemical Romance blaring and start wailing along to the music.

The natural enemy of Metalheads, Goths and regular people.

(Take into account that some emo chicks are hot and just dress as emo. if you see an emo chick, ask a question, and if the words, life, sucks, misery or unfair come up, then RUN LIKE A MOFO!)
Emo Tiny guy with skinny jeans and a duplicate you later find out to be a girl walk down a street.

*sniff* my life sucks so much, its all their fault.
