First of all, we're not those people who say: Okay i'm gonna do this to look cool. We're the type of people who do this for a real meaning. To express emotional pain and depression. I know this because i'm emo myself, as i've used first person pronouns. Second, don't associate us with skaters, goths, and scenes. My girlfriend is a scene and I know the difference. Anyways, we like darker colors. Black, red, purple, whatever. You may think our style of music is crazy, but it really isn't. We're not loners. Emos have friends too. We're not forever alone. We get dates too. So quit hating on us. Okay? Okay. We don't cut for sympathy. We cut for a reason. Same as why we're even emo.
Emo: My life sucks *Cut*

Get the emo mug.In addition to definitions already proffered here, EMO requires that the emo man/woman maintains a certain vagueness along with a "who gives a damn" attitude. Cluelessness is a plus.

Get the emo mug.Noun:
1. Some trendy catch all phrase that get elderly hardcore kids in a fucking rage when you mention it casually. What started out as a derogatory term has mistakenly for some been considered a non-coalition sociocultural movement started by kids who were "totally over hardcore". More correctly it has been used to hype up lazy bands that copy either American Football or Antioch Arrow (if they skram) note for note, refuse to rock out, and get that hype money for record labels like Topshelf, Vagrant (rest in piss), Deathwish or Bridge 9.
2. Pop-punk music where the singer is more sad than angry at the girl who wouldn't go to the prom with him.
Adj.
1. Totally acting like a bitch

Get the Emo mug.Emos do not always wear dark clothing. We usually like dark colors so that is what we wear. Some of us are secretly emo so some people don't know that we are hurting. Emos are not over emotional and do not seek attention. We do not always cut, cutting is a stage and some stay in that stage. Emo is not how you dress, or how you treat your body, or how you act. Emo is a state of pain. Yes, most of us do have antidepressants or antianxiety medications. The thing that people don't understand is that when you cut, you are in so much pain that you are trying to release it or you feel you deserve pain. This word is more of a lifestyle/personality style. I hope this doesn't offend anybody as other people's definitions have offended me.
Technically, Demi Lavato is emo because she has cut, been through a lot of pain, has that edgy style where she wears her favorite colors that are usually dark.
