Emo

'Emo' is a music genre, yet it is used in the wrong context and usually mistaken for a style label for a teen goth cult. Its a bit odd to think you are an 'emo', so try a different style. Don't try scene unless you would be commited to it. Don't a poser.

emo

came from the word 'emotive'
DOES NOT NECESSARILY MEAN emotional or cutting yourself

subgenre of punk.

ppl who are emo usually wear skinny jeans, tight sweaters/hoodies, skater shoes, studded stuff, black straight hair covering like half of the face, etc.

ppl who are stereotype about emo think its all cutting ur self and black shit

THEYRE WRONG!

emo

a label that some teenagers call themselfs. and a type of music
usually ages between 14-19.
their kids who think their lives are horrible so they dress up in weird colored clothes that can be seen from space and wear 10 pounds of makeup.
which is kind of stupid, cause most of the time their lives dont suck, and they could be normal if they didnt wear so much makeup.
some "emo" people are normal though... but enough with the labels already!
"emo" kid: im sooo emo. i hate my life
kid:yeah? maybe your life hates you too.

emo

A word used by prejudiced no-hopers, to make themself feel better about their shallow labelling. Often used to describe music taste, fashion taste, depression, hair cuts, art and, wierdly enough, colours.

Basically anything individual or dark.
No-hoper:OMG! Those black jeans are soooo EMO!

"Emo":You were wearing the same pair last week.

No-hoper:OMG that music is sooo emo!

"Emo": I'm sorry, I shall run along and listen to Rihanna and derogatory rap now, shall I?

No-hoper: Do you like cut?

"Emo": Do you, like, have a mental problem?

Emo

Okay you might hear alot of bad things about emos that isnt true. So here is the real definition to emo. Kids that may feel sad and or alone. If you heard the emo song thats all just a bad strioetype. Emo isnt like goth. Emo isnt a cult. Emo started out as a type of music and developed into a style. Emo is short for emotional. And next time you see an emo dont judge them right away get to know them first. If your child is emo. Leave it alone it may be a phase and they WILL grow out of it. Though it take a while support them and it will be be okay.
emo:Black clothes. Eye liner. Makeup.
