I thought emo was just a fashion thing?

We had emo's at my highschool and they were never any more depressed than any other teenager I knew. I also can't distinguish between emo bands and another other type of rock, punk, whatever-genre-you-wanna-call-it band until I see a video clip and the band members all have sweepy side fringes and tight jeans.

I have nothing against emos. They're no lamer than any other try hard sterotype. They'll grow out of it.
 
no. thats goth. emo is one step further. if you are emo, you have scars.

You don't have to have scars to be emo. Many people cut themselves because it releases beta-endorphins, which can often bring relaxation. A stereotype of an emo person is 'depressed' which would make them more likely to do this.

I wish people didn't stereotype 'emos' and 'goths' because obviously that casts them in a negative light. Most goths I know are very intelligent, articulate people. The problem with the term 'emo' is that it represents a much ridiculed genre of music.
 
yes. sorry. my head is messed up from another thread.and cutting yourself is masocism. bad stuff.
 
Some people have told me I kind-of am, but I'm really not.

I cut other people.
 
Yes... Definitely emo... - It's just a fashion thing though - It'll pass just like TV and the Internet...
 
Yes, i am emo :(
I usually cry a lot....
( am i the only one here who is emo?)
 
Nah I'm not emo.

Emo seems to be becoming less and less about the depression and more about the style. Though there was the resident emo in my comprehensive who acted like he was all depressed but wasn't really. He was just a weak guy who wanted to "kill chavs" except he couldn't kill a fly. So he hung out with more people who wanted to "kill chavs" but couldn't kill a fly.
 
no. thats goth. emo is one step further. if you are emo, you have scars.

No this is goth...

I like to hide in my closet and write poetry while cutting myself with my dads razor, does that make me emo or just a weird homosexual?!
 
I write poetry in the dark, take moody photographs and listen to My Chem. I am Elmo. I mean emo.
 
I feel rather smug that I have no real idea what this thread's about. Although I have a suspicion. Please tell me that there is not a movement aligned with the whiny squeaky voiced self-obsessed "comedian" by the same name!

No, not emo no...But I am swedish! :ouch: Isn´t there some prejudice about swedes and their suicidal habits?? :dopey:
 
I listen to a lot of emocore/screamo/hardcore/polka music, but i don't follow the fashion. Except for wearing band tees from some of those bands, i guess.

Dude - Just get it over with K - Spare the rest of us the crying and moaning ;-)

I'm Danish, so I think I'm more or less supposed/expected to try to kill myself, at least once or twice...

The latest fad here in DK seems to be Make-up gang rapes - Now THOSE stupid females HAVE to be emo to pull **** like that...
