Often used to describe a person. There are two definitions to this word: emotionless, and emotional. The belief that "wearing dark clothes, having the hair covering an eye or both, cutting ones self, having little to no friends, and wearing eye liner/makeup despite gender" is a false concept.
"Happy Birthday kiddo!" (dad)
"and your point is...?" (emotionless kid)
Emotionless ^
"I heard that he's going to break up with you soon!" (friend)
"what!?! but.. but why?!?" (girlfriend) *starts crying a lot*
Emotional ^

Get the Emomug. A stereotype associated with people who are very "emotive".
Commonly associated with such things as:
Long Black Fringe which covers one eye.
Wearing bandanas as scarfs.
Feeling alone and crying.
"Slashing" themselves.

Get the emomug. Emo is not based on how often they cry or cut themselves. To be honest, most of the definitions of emo on urban dictionary are not true and they do hurt. They are mainly made by judgemantal people who have no idea of what they are writing about and just like to be super critical for no reason. They honestly don't understand how it is like to be in my shoes, so why should they judge my lifestyle. In fact, most emo kids don't cut. They prefer to have an awesome haircut which consists of side bangs, black hair and occasionally another random colour. Sterotypically, Emo's listen to emo music. Saying all emos listen to emo music isn't necessarily true. They have quite a varity of music because there is more music out there than just one genre. You know which I love to hear? Emos are hated. Well, emo's do have friends, and they can be friends with whoever they want to be friends with. Just because they look a certain way or might act a different way occasionally doesn't mean they are hated. What I don't get is that there are so many rumors about the emo sterotype. Yes there is a certainn way to be emo, but you cannot act emo. To be emo you have to legit be an emo. One thing I have to say, is most of the urban dictionary definitions for the way emos dress are pretty true. They generally wear tight black clothes with a spiky belt and wear converse. Also piercings are very common with the emo culture

Get the Emomug. Emo is not a type of music, a style of clothing, or an emotion. Emo is short for emotional. They do not cut themselves, they do not always wanna die. The word EMO is a word commonly missused by todays generations.

Get the Emomug. The word Emo doesnt mean Emotional because if it did then Everybody could be labeled emo for the fact everyone has emotions. It originated from 'Emotive Hardcore'.
Not all emo's are depressed and cut themselves.
Alot of emo's are happy and proud of their quirky free dress sense.
They tend to get alot of stick from chavs who really have no place to talk
They support there favourite bands by wearing their merchandise.
Emos get slated alot and its unfair because they are just people living their life how they like it.
Alot of Emo's listen to My Chemical Romance so they then get mistaken as an emo band when they are actually Rock.
Much respect to the Emos.. \m/

Some comments Emos face:
Go slit your wrists you fucking emo.
Go back to your corner and cry.
What do you look like?
I feel sorry for your mother..
Well dont feel sorry for their mothers becasue the majority of Emo's are very intelligent and actually try to make something out of their lives.

Get the Emomug. A very ironic subculture devoted to trying extremely hard and spending a lot of money to fit one cookie-cutter emo mentality, then denying (strongly denying that is) that you are emo to anyone who asks.
{Person approaches a kid with two studded belts, red/black hair, Hawthorne Heights tee shirt and black skinny jeans}
"Hey, are you like emo or something?"
"No, fuck emo. Don't label me, I'm not emo, I'm an indiv-"
"I don't care..."

Get the Emomug. Emo. There are many diffrent types of emos. I would know, I happen to be "emo". Here is a list of the diffrent types of emos:
The Fake Emo(Known as the "Wannabee Emo"): These kids listen to Teenagers over and over and wear black, dye their hair black and sometimes (NOT ALL THE TIME, DONT STEROTYPE DAMMIT) cut themselves so that they seem emo. These kids are not emo. They are annoying and make a bad name for the "true" emo.
The Real Emo: This is someone who probably has some sort of tragedy happen, such as parents being alcoholics or being depressed because of a mental condition (Personal Experience). These kids should not be made fun of because many of them are going through extremely hard times. But, sadly, there are people who don't even bother to look and see that these people may really be in trouble! Heck, its very hard to find a real emo because most of them are in the closet about their emoness.
The Real, Hardcore Emo: These are the worst. These are the emos that have been real for close to a month and they begin to nosedive. They cut deeper and they become increasingly mean to freinds at school or to people in the workplace. They may also start burning or pinching or some other form of Self-Injury. These kids should NEVER be made fun of. They are, many times, mentally unstable and many will attempt or have many thoughts about killing themselves. If you know about someone that is cutting or talking of suicide, they are becomeing a hardcore emo, and they have a slight chance of living.
Please, don't make fun of emo. It's just cruel. I was made fun of as an emo, and then I went to a rebalitaion center for a month, which felt like jail. I was set up with a professional and finally got back to normal. I'm taking perscribtion meds to feel better. Emo isn't a joke. It can be dangerous.
