Answers:
To all the haters, you all need to be brought into reality!.!.!.YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE!
Here's the problem; a majority of the people judge emo kids when they DON'T even know what they're really like! Everyone tends to think that emos slit their wrists, are depressed all the time, cry their eyes out, complain about everything, and are whiny and ungrateful!.!.!.When 99% of the time, that's just an incorrect stereotype people have gotten us mixed up with!. Yes, there are "emos" who fit the discription that I just gave, and their behavior does get annoying!. But that doesn't mean *ALL* of the emos are like that!.
Myself, along with many friends of mine would NOT fit that stereotype!. And, I'm tired of everyone associating all emos with being wrist cutters!. I know many who don't cut, including myself!.
Why are people giving us such a hard time!? Any other group of people have stereotypes just as we do!. The Goths are known for being dark and dark minded, the Punks are known for being disrespectful and troublemakers, the Preps are known for being sIutty and stuck-up, the Emos are known for being cutters and whiners!.!.!.And the list goes on!
I'm not intentionally labeling certain people, I'm just using this as an example on how people are labeled!.!.!.When it doesn't necessarily mean that EVERYONE in those groups are exactly like what their known for!. The same goes for Emos!. Not all of them are like what they're known to be, and I wish people would just understand that!. We're just like anyone else!.!.!.You know, we're human too!. No need to treat us like we're aliens just because we dress or look differently than what you may 'prefer'!. I've come to meet many interesting people, and so many of them are my fellow emos!. They're really awesome people once you get to know them, and they're just really unique!.
I hope you all will one day realize that you shouldn't have judged people before you even had a chance to get to know them!.
What are you accomplishing by labeling people, anyway!? How would you guys feel if you were in the opposite situation!. Would you like everyone to judge you and make you feel like crap, just because YOU are different to us!? Most likely, not!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

did you happen to mean apathetic in the second paragraph!.


heres what I think, it started out as like a counter culture thing!. and people started joining to be different!. but, they didnt realize they were going to be hated!. well guess what, every "black sheep" of a generation is going to be hated, but you have to stand up for what you believe in!. But emos today arent doing that, and they're getting their **** wreckedWww@Enter-QA@Com

I honestly used to think it was just a fad because after a while it seemed like everybody and their mom claimed they were emo!. It was like all the kids were turning or trying to look emo so it really pissed me off!.

I have respect towards the er!.!.!. "true emo's" because I understand they have problems and such!.!.!.!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I think people are incredibly narrow minded, and personally i find it disgusting that people are beaten up and teased for being labelled 'emo'!.
If people don't agree with the idea of emo or any other subculture, then why can't they just ignore it!?Www@Enter-QA@Com

I don't mind emos, I even have a friend of two that dresses that style!. What I hate is when emos (who aren't really depressed) act all depressed and cut themselves and obsess day and night over More Crappy Regurgatation!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

because emo isnt a musical genre, it is just fashion!. if you want to talk about fashion- go post in fashion!. this section is for music!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

i dont mind emos!. i have this friend who have a real messed up family and no one could give her any attention at home

however people who pretend to be emo are really irritating!. they put on even more makeup than real emos!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Guys shouldnt wear jeans tighter than spandex
they shouldnt wear eyeliner
emo's are queer
and if your emo, then your queerWww@Enter-QA@Com

As devil's advocates exchange their souls to Satan for power, so as Emos sell their dignity to teeny-boppers for fortune!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

well that was pretty emo!.!.!.!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I agree!. The prejudism on this site makes me sick!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I don't mide emo's!. Someone has to work at Burger King and McDonalds!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Okay, I'm not going to bother myself with writing 60 lines explaining why emotional people take things in their own twisted way and for some reason the whole world revolves around them and only them!.

Emo is a culture!? Since when!?
And since you're so "emo" can you give me the true definition of the word Emo!?

Oh and honestly I truly don't mind them, they're quite nice when they're not talking about themselves and how their life sucks!.

I believe I said that I don't dislike them!. What I dislike is that people actually label themselves or others!. People aren't cans of soup and deserve to only be called human!. And why did you bring religion up now!?

Seems to me you're the one with the problem not us!. Typical emo!.

Oh and stop sending me emails talking about how ignorant I am when you're the one who brought this up!. Do you think that this question will suddenly somehow change the world into a better place!?

If I see an "emo" walking on the street I wouldn't make fun of them nor beat them up!. To me, they're just like any other human being walking on the street!.

Looks like you got the 60 lines I was trying to avoid!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

When you willingly identify yourself as part of a scene that is overly emotional, angst ridden, and depressed, don't be shocked when you get disrespected by people who think it is ridiculous to

a) be such a sheep that you'd willingly identify yourself as part of a scence

and

b) be overly emotional, angst ridden, and depressed all the time


I promise you this: You, too, will hate it that you were 'emo' in about five years when you've moved on!. You'll regret Pete Wenz havin all your money, you'll regret your lame too tight jeans and the fact that you were basically a walking billboard saying "This is what a sad person looks like"!. Why call attention to how miserable you are!?Www@Enter-QA@Com

People disrespect emo's because most of them just do it for attention!. Most people who are "emo" do not even know where the word comes from!. As Emo comes from a Punk style of music created in the 1980's (not unlike some "screamo" bands of today, but more raw!.) most people feel that emo's are little annoying people who think that MCR is the most Hardcore thing in the world!. They claim that this music is emo, and is better than any other music that they're is!. also they start to listen to metalcore and deathcore like job for a cowboy, and tag themselves as SCENE, which is equally as annoying because then they think that those bands are the most hardcore and Br00tal things in the world!. also emo is generally associated with people who cry alot and cut themselves, not that this is usually the case!. Many people find this annoying and feel that they do it soley for attention and do not actually feel this way!.
that might not have made sense but w/eWww@Enter-QA@Com

I didn't even read your whole paragraph, because I have the answer just from the first 2 sentences!. The reason you have gotten beaten up, kicked, teased, and treated cruel is because of posers like you who claim their emo!. A real, true person would not limit themselves to ANY label, they are just themselves!.!.but of course you on the otherhand WANT to be limited to such a label!.!.!.!.I hope it does you good in life!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Your against labeling and you call yourself emo!?
Can you taste the hypocrisy!?
Your overreacting on something that has no importance whats so ever!.
Who cares about what emo "really" means,no one really cares, your trying to start a meaningless war, when no one else wants to!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

because you people are about THE GAY PRIDE FASHION vs!. the music!. you use the music as crutch to glorify your terrible oriented culture!. it is called "shallow mind set" like denise richards, kim kardashian, paris hilton, linzy lohan and her bubblegum pop queen sister!. that's the best example I can give!.

look at poser Pete Wentz, when he started he was vocalist for a semi-metal band and then got that gay emo hair cut and joined fall in posers I mean fall out boy and SOLD OUT perfect example of emo!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I have nothing against emos myself!. The thing is emo today though is not what it was like 10 years ago!. Emo has turned into what people are saying is a style!. I agree that today more emos are trying to stand out from the world and are trying to fit into the "emo style"!. I myself though am not fond if this new idea that emos have to dress a certain way!.

Now as far as the music goes, emo music necessarily isn't bad!. However, when most people think of emo bands, they think of bands like My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, and Panic! At The Disco!. They think of this sadly because most emos these days are buying into that sort of music, emo-pop!. Because of this people believe that all emo bands have to wear makeup and "dress like girls"!.

Sadly emo these days has turned into a mall-goth fashion!. Remember the days when there were bands like Sunny Day Real Estate, Moss Icon, and Texas Is The Reason!? Those bands are all cosidered emo, but their music is excellent!. If you notice though, that all the bands members of Sunny Day Real Estate never wore make up or was into this mall-goth fashion!. They were just regular people playing music!.

I guess I can go as far as to say that emo music has changed for the worst!. You can't expect though that anyone is going to let up or tolerate emos because of that!. I really don't know what to tell you about how you should be dealing about your problems!. I am just here to say that are right when you say that not everyone knows the real story about the emo music and style!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
