Emo Kids

Emo-kids can be children ages 11-13 or teenagers ages 13-19. “Flippy Hair” characterizes Emo Kids. Emo boys will often have short hair in the back, but outrageously long bangs that may be dyed or not. It is usually flipped to one side. Emo boys may choose to straighten their hair or not. Colors are optional but will earn extra emo points. Emo girls will usually have dead straight hair with colored side-bangs. Usually red or pink. Emo clothing and scene clothing are very similar. Most often, both sexes will choose to wear girl jeans, or extremely tight pencil jeans. Jeans may vary in color from light blue corduroys to jet black jeans. Emo boys often wear a band shirt portraying either: skulls, guns, blood, hearts, or crying children. Emo girls will be found wearing shirts with robots, hearts, or various sayings on them. Some emo clothing may even be outrageous. Emo kids will always wear black, purple, crimson, or dark grey. Emo clothes for both sexes must be extremely tight. Because of their choice of clothing, they are often mistaken for scenekids. Emo kids will rarely wear Vans. Both sexes chose to wear a Vans imitation called Airwalk. These shoes will most likely be black and have skulls or guns on it. Emo kids are obsessed with death and most often talk about it. The kind of music that emo-kids listen to may vary from Screamo to Mainstream to Underground Punk. Some bands that emo kids may listen to include: Fall Out Boy, Panic! At the Disco, Saosin, From Autumn To Ashes, Killing Hannah, Leftover Crack, and Emmure. The band to start the emo craze was Rites of Spring. This band was very popular with subcultures in the 80s and early 90s. At shows, emo-kids will often stand and sing the lyrics with their eyes closed. It is very rare to see an emo-kid mosh or hardcore dance. Emo-kids are the most educated out of the modern subcultures. They enjoy reading books and writing poetry. Emo poetry is usually sad, depressing, and about the pains of life. Emo-kids often talk about suicide, but most never go through with it. Although emo-kids claim to be sXc (straightedge), they have pictures of themselves smoking and drinking on myspace and facebook. Emo boys and girls will often have gauges and lip piercings. Some accessories that both sexes can be found wearing are: pins, buttons, handbags (or man purses), backpacks, rings, earrings, white studded belts, and nose rings. Emo boys will often wear eyeliner and paint their nails black. Emo-kids are the most hated out of all of the modern subcultures. They are often made fun of by conformists and other social classes. Most people pretend to be emo or use the expression “Cheer up Emo Kid!” These comments can be hurtful to emo-kids and this is why emo-kids don’t often talk to other people other than emo-kids. Making fun of emo-kids is not right, and they should be left alone. Emo-kids are not accepted by any of the subcultures, other than their own. Occasionally some scenekids will hangout with an emo-kid, but it is very rare.

emo kids

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.
Those emo kids are really good at writing poetry.

emo kids' anthem

Emo Kids' anthem...
Hawthorne Heights- Ohio is for Lovers
----------------or-------------------
MCR's I'm Not Okay (I promise)

From the Emo Kid Song (which wouldn't be their anthem...)
...sulking and writing poetry are my favorite hobbies
i can't get through a hawthorne heights album w/o sobbing...
These are parts of the two songs that could be the emo kids' anthem.
Ohio is for Lovers-....Hey there,
I know it's hard to feel like I don't care at all. Where you are and how you feel.... How are you when I'm gone? And I can't make it on my own.Because my heart is in Ohio. So cut my wrists and black my eyes. (Cut my wrists and black my eyes) So I can fall asleep tonight, or die. Because you kill me. You know you do, you kill me well.You like it too, and I can tell.You never stop until my final breath is gone.

I'm Not Okay (I promise)-...What will it take to show you that it's not the life it seems?(I'm not okay) I told you time and time again you sing the words but don't know what it means(I'm not okay)

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 . . .
Emo kids made fun of by Adam and Andrew. Check them out.

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*
