Your Definition of Emo

[souls2stars]

My friends rant, an complain, and keep telling me that if I'm going to be emo, I have to do it right. Then in respnse, I have to rant, complain, and tell them that just because they say it that way, doesn't make it true.
They all say an emo is someone who crys all the time, and dosen't like to solize, and cuts themselves, wears black ALL THE TIME. And they just don't want to understand my meaning of the term emo.
I find it more as emotion, then a fashin statement, and what not. I tell them I'm emo, and they complain that I'm not because I don't cute myself, and I wear something other then black sometimes, and I don't cake myself in pericings, or eyeliner. I deny there meaning by saying that to me, emo means that your having problems in your life, and they're affecting you emotionally. I don't have to cut myself to get the pain away, I could something else, and just because I'm currently hating my life, doesn't mean I'll waer black all the time, or cake myself in makeup.

What do you think?

shitload of eyeliner, and black clothes.

I'm emo.

Do I wear Eyeliner? No.
Do I cut myself? No.
Do I always Wear black? No.
Do I cuss all the time? No.
Do I cuss? No.
Do I announce to everyone that I'm emo? No.

Emo isn't a fashion statement. It's a label to separate those who are broken-hearted and crushed in spirit-Yet are still strong, from the people who fake life out everyday and think nothing is wrong.

Emo is a heartfelt way of life. It's looking past what society puts before us. We're are ourselves. We get straight to the point, and Know the world around us for what it is.

I am emo, and I am proud.

i agree with you, ... my friends always tell me stereotypical things about what being emo means and every time i tell them they would ignore me it bothers me alot to hear them say that >.>  

[SincerlyScarletRose]

Actually most of us are scene.. I don't really know what I am.. I cut and I wear colors..ummm? outcast?

emo is generally a music label
but when people dress like the bands, they are then called emo. but it doesnt mean cutting, being anti social, or wearing black all the time.

i wear black alot, but thats cause i like it.  

[LucyTheLoveableLoner]

i suffered from bipolar depression.. i let my emotions get the best of me... i have a really dark humor/personality... i am anti-social... i like angry music.. or distrubing lyrics. i dont always dress the way people normally depict emos... but sometimes i do.. i wear whatever the ******** i want. i hate most people... oh yeah.. im an indigo child.. not that that is emo or anything.. just who i am.
