Emos are usually teenagers who listen to bands such as My Chemical Romance (MCR) and Fall Out Boy (FOB). They are usually depressed and love depressing others with their daily bitching about how everything/everyone sucks. Most emos self harm.
You would find that the typical emo wears stripey or skull-patterned shirts with skinnies and converse. To match their horrific taste in clothing, their makeup is usually overdone and very dark.
Both female and male emos have a fringe covering one eye. All emo males are homosexual.

Get the Emomug. Real Emo only consists of the dc Emotional Hardcore scene and the late 90's Screamo scene. What is known by "Midwest Emo" is nothing but Alternative Rock with questionable real emo influence. When people try to argue that bands like My Chemical Romance are not real emo, while saying that Sunny Day Real Estate is, I can't help not to cringe because they are just as fake emo as My Chemical Romance (plus the pretentiousness). Real emo sounds ENERGETIC, POWERFUL and somewhat HATEFUL. Fake emo is weak, self pity and a failed attempt to direct energy and emotion into music. Some examples of REAL EMO are Pg 99, Rites of Spring, Cap n Jazz (the only real emo band from the midwest scene) and Loma Prieta. Some examples of FAKE EMO are American Football, My Chemical Romance and Mineral EMO BELONGS TO HARDCORE NOT TO INDIE, POP PUNK, ALT ROCK OR ANY OTHER MAINSTREAM GENRE

Get the Emomug. A boy or a girl, mostly teenagers who is going threw depression. They do self harming such as slit their wrists. They often get bullied because people think their weird. Emos stay together with other emos. Some of them are lesbians, gender fluid, gay, bisexual or even trans. Not all emos are like that but some of them are. Emos wear chockers, piercing,tattoos (?), bangs, and depressing clothes. Not many emos get out of depression and become normal but most of them just do suicide. Some people are even afraid if they hang out with emos they will become emo too.
Person 1: Where is that emo kid?
Person 2: idk why he didn't attend school this week.
Person 3: heh he probably did suicide.

Get the Emomug. The music:
Softcore punk rock.
"Guy Picciotto formed Rites of Spring in 1984, breaking free of hardcore's self-imposed boundaries in favor of melodic guitars, varied rhythms, and deeply personal, impassioned lyrics." Wikipedia
The People:
It is a label people give themselves for being apathetic and emotional to an extreme (usually miserable), but wallowing in it and not wanting it to change. They tend to feel they are misunderstood and that life is not fair to them in specific.
The Look:
The casual Emo garb is faded thin\tight blue jeans or slightly oversized work pants accompanied by a secondhand T-shirt with an out of place logo, bad Heavy Metal tees work well too. Good shoes would be Converse Chuck Taylor low-tops or old skool low-top Vans. The more extreme clothes of choice would include horn-rimmed glasses, cardigan sweaters, dorky polo shirts, pants that are a bit too short and hair that is spiky or messy in the back with straight cut bangs or awkward sharp angles and are often glossed.
Compared to Goths:
The primary difference is that emos have normal or more or less standard fashion, personalities and interests. Goths take these to the extreme and dislike most people. Emos can have a pale complexion, but will not wear black lipstick, and will not have the Halloween look that goths have. Google images gives accurate portrait of goth.
