I honestly like emo music now. I'm not going into why emo music rocks but let me just say that listening to Emo music doesn't not make you emo.

Preppy Girls cut themselves and loser emos.
Goths dress in Black
Emos are depressed from their life

I am also now emo ...according to everyone else >.>'

 

[Triforce3force]

Nope. Not Emo. The only thing that I kinda like that is emo is a fictional character- Sasuke. *runs*

 

[Bulerias]

Meh, I like Breaking the Habit, but that's it.

Honestly,

"The term "emo" has also been used in recent years on the Internet as a form of insult, especially toward those who appear emotionally unstable, or those who talk about issues in their lives to people in public forums or chat rooms. Similar to popular curses, it tends to be used as a general insult even when it is not directly applicable. Phrases such as "cheer up, emo kid" are used frequently as a quick brush-off in this context. Some people use the term "emo" to describe a feeling of depression, alluding to the association of depression with the "emo" subculture."

"Bands like Dashboard Confessional began to popularize a more dramatic and personal style of "emo", which used lyrics that had a far greater appeal amongst teenagers experiencing life and love for the first time. As the lyrical content shifted, and as the genre began to enter the mainstream, the term "emo" started to be used more often to describe what was perceived by those outside the scene as the overwrought melodrama of the music. The perception was that melodrama was feigned, an effort to display depression or dysfunction where it didn't actually exist. Popular comments such as "don't be so emo" and "cheer up, emo kid" expressed the belief among detractors that fans of emo music took themselves too seriously."

"There is also a common stereotype that associates "emo" with self-harm, most notably cutting wrists, partly due to song lyrics associated with "emo" bands, which often speak of acts of self-destruction. However, apart from the anecdotal, there is no significant evidence of any correlation between emo and self-harm."

Emo in general is just a term for being depressed, basically. If someone is depressed and they have a reason to, then it's perfectly fine... Of course, you can't remain emo for the rest of your life, since if you're depressed for your whole life it won't be easy to live, and emo people typically end with suicide.

Thing is, the laughing at emo people is sometimes deserved and sometimes not. If a person is depressed for no reason and is acting emo just to show off, then yes, that person deserves to be laughed at. However, if the person actually has problems, it's not dumb; it's serious.

It is a fact that a lot of adults live with minor depression their whole lives. Those that have major depression should either find a reason to live or just die.

Life shouldn't be as painful as it can be, once it reaches a certain point I can't see it as living.

Also, I think the main reason Emo music is so liked among teens is because it releases stress by connecting with problems or just letting them have the chance to let it out in a physically and emotionally healthy way.

Is that not the same with all people, though? One does not have to have a clich

Hey I admit I get a little emo at times. Normally when I think of death. For the most part though I try to be an optimist. The way I see it there has to be a reason to live, even if you have to create your own.

I know a lot of people who make fun of emos, funnily it is still more for the immature reason of the guys wear girl pants....honestly when I see guys do that it creeps me out a little, why you would want such tight fitting jeans is beyond me. and hurting yourself....if you do that you need to see a psychologist or psychiatrist for depression....

No, I won't, won't try, if I tried I won't like it.

 

[Smart_Tech_Dragon_15]

Nah, I don't care for the music, but sometimes the people aren't bad. Like Fish and Bul said, I don't hate the people if they're emo, I mean, if they really are having problems, then I can respect that. If they're doing that just to stand out, then I really don't care for it. But, overall, they're okay.

And I've gotta agree with Fish, some of them are rather cute...

 

[AnimalE10]

Maybe......cause I never heard of it before
