whiny adolescent kid who has no problems and cuts themselves. they suck and listen to some of the worst "music" that has ever been called music. they're not in any way gay cos they'd never make the cut with their greasiness, poor fashion and music sense and massive depression. dont call them gay. i will beat you. fortunately they don't much exist except in America these days

Emo

Some of you are totally wrong about being emo. I'm emo, I would know. I'm not emo because I think it's cool, I'm a very expressive person, artsy, and I've been emo/punk for most of my life, you guys are ignorant. Yes, many of us are from well-off families who don't understand, but that's our choice. You're stereotyping people you don't even know. I have tons of friends (some who are very popular), I don't cut myself, I'm perfectly happy! There's so many more misconceptions... okay, maybe my hair is half pink, maybe I wear tighter jeans then the rest of you, maybe I listen to less popular music because it's way better than listening to a bleach blond tramp who forgot to wear underwear! It's our choice, and you shouldn't judge. That's like asking a football player why he plays football. So stupid, so trivial, so ignorant.

Cheerleader: Eww, look at that emo kid, disgusting!

Groupie: Ugh, I know! Stupid cuter.

The term "Emo" is used as counterculture; it is an abbreviation of the word "emotional". Emo it's defining not only an attitude, but also a fashion that are coming from emocore (emo music). Emocore is a combination between hardcore and punk music which was very popular in Washington DC in the late 80's. The emo culture continued to develop between '90 and '00, reaching the height of its popularity today. Emo is also a popular type of fashion now a days.

The society thinks emos are failures; they are not strong enough to hide their emotions.

You don't have to be emo to listen to punk/hardcore/post hardcore music.
Also having black hair (natural or dyed) can't label you as an emo (unless you want to). Emo is used as an insult these days to label people with high emotions and/or people who wears black clothes.

Emo is not as bad as the society sees them. Why would people discriminate or judge emos when they have done nothing wrong to the society but all they have done is having their hair painted/naturally black, listening to rock/punk/hardcore music, or wearing black clothes.

People shouldn't be judging anyone just because of what they do or just because of the music they listen to. Everyone has different tastes and no one should be discriminating others just because of those reasons.

someone you thinks they have issues and blames their parents. they believe in dark things and wear very goth things and are like goths to the power of 100. //suicidal emos (usually the "Real emos" tend to cut themselves out of stress hoping to find a certain relief. // Some people refer to some emos as fags, as they wear, short jet black hair, tight jeans, tall and skinny, hair over either the right or left eye at either a straigh and or diagonal style, usually wear vans/chucks and wear eyeliner, have piercings on their body and wear band shirts. Almost like "Punks"

Emo

The byproduct of the late wave Baby Boomer's and early Generation X'ers that didn't beat the hell out of their boys, instill values and principals in them, and man them up. They find drama where there doesn't need to be any. Most usually have black, shaggy hair, a 28 inch waist or smaller, are Caucasian or Oriental, and listen to manufactured music that will be forgotten about in less than a year.
