Emo is short for the word emotional.
Insted of discussing what the word Emo does mean I am going to discuss what the word does NOT mean.
The word Emotional is not defined as meaning sad or depressed it is defined as {Being full of fealing} so how is it that the word Emo being derived from the word Emotional has come to be a word associated with sadness and depression.
Emo: {The Bastardisation of the word Emotionalmeaning "Full of fealing".
Fealing!! Not sadness. Fealing!!

Kids who have a lot of emotion. They don't necessarily cut or try to kill themselves. Some of them just write a lot of poetry to deal with the crappy hand life has dealt them. I am an emo kid, and I don't appreciate all the anti-emo crap. We're not all stupid cutters. we don't all want to die. Some of us just have a hard time. I write songs and poetry to express the feelings I have. So for all of you who hate emo kids, take a step back and think about what you mean. We aren't all stupid, so don't trash us before you get to know us.

I'm an emo kid, nonconforming as can be, you could be nonconforming too if you looked just like me. I have paint on my nails and makeup on my face. I'm almost emo enough to start shaving my legs. 'Cause I feel real deep when I'm dressing in drag, I call it freedom of expression, most just call me a fag! Because the dudes look like chicks, the chicks look like dykes, 'cause emo is one step below transvestite. Stop my breathing and slit my throat, I must be emo, I don't jump around when I go to shows . . .

I'm apparently an emo kid. and it doesn't seem to me that I cut and cry and write poetry, I suck at writing. sure I'm a middle class person but i dont whine about it. and I'm emo. But I dont't whine. I don't see everyones problem with emo kids. None of you know me, yet you are going to judge me. I dont wear glasses because I don't need them and shit like that. All of those things are stereotypes....those can be broken. So fuck off. I'm gonna go cut and cry. *cough*stereotype*cough*
look at me...i am a prep. i love gap and abercrombie and fitch. i just love that new eminem video on mtv. i'm such a whore that i'm being tested on for new, undiscovered std's. wow....i almost vomited when typing that

I myself am a emo kid and this is what I think...
All the people that diss them should take a look at their own lifes and are just jealous because we can spell.
I myself do not cut or whine or listen to morbidly depressing music i listen to emotional music.
I dont shop at hot topic, much.., but thats better than all you anti-emos shopping at nike and soccerworld.
I think emos are emos because they are not afraid to express themselves and there emotions and y'all going to have to live with it.
emo=dude,
you=not dude...work it out

Prep in black. Does the same shit as every other emo kid, and calls it nonconformist. They should get a swift punch in the face from something called reality
Preps: Im gonna go to abercrombie, buy some overpriced shit, and drink and have unprotected sex
Emo Kids: Im gonna go to hot topic, buy some over priced shit, and drink and have unprotected sex
