    Emo - it means emotional , its not just fashion it started of as a type of music ( bands like my chemical romance , fall out boy , marlin manseon , pretty reckless are associated with emo's ) its about expressing ur true feeling s for the world , not being afraid to keep ur thoughts locked up in a bottle .
    some people say emos are self depressed , cut themselves and are suicidal .
    not all emos ar like that , some are depressed from previous events in theire lives or feel as if they are unloved and don't belong . some let out the frustration by slitting theire wrists , and sadly some even kill themselves beacouse they are so depressed - NOT ALL !
    your family are not saying your suicidal , probaly that you express your feelings and thoughts to others without hesitation or that you dress like an emo .
    SOME emo's dress in all black (not to be confused to a goth ) some wear black jeans , t-shirts with band logos on and mighthave jet black hair or hair with various coulored extentions in them , whilst others might dress like a rainbow , colourfull pants (green , pink , orange , yellow , light blue ) and just a plain t-shirt and studded jewllery . but being an emo isn' t just about fashion .
    your parants could mean you enjoy listning to alternitive rock , dress dully or brightly...

    remember mosr emo's are happy and not suicidal , others are , do not critisize emos they have emotions , feelings , thoughts that are not always about death , nobody should critisize emos

    Usually, most emos:

    Wear alot of make-up
    Arent very happy
    Listen to punk rock
    Cut themselves
    (Listen to the song, you might not relate to it b/c you might not be emo and your a girl)


    OK OK This is the best song in the world!!

    This should help x]

    no really, dont pretend to be something ur not, act urself. emo is an over-used stereotyped, really lame.
  • DisturbedChild 2009/07/09 04:13:23
    DisturbedChild
    Wow
    Mostly all those people are stupid

    listen jenny Emo is shorten for Emotional
    It doesnt mean you like black,cut your self,depressed None of that

    All emo means is that your very emotional
    you have stronger emotions then the average person which means
    you get mad,upset,sad, and all the other emotions

    Well are you a very emotional person?? You really don't have to change how you are or anything. I mean if you cut, yeah your kinda emo. :] But if it's just your attiutde..you just gotta work on being a happy person.. annnnnddddd people saying if you wanna be emo, go cut, that is not true.. emo means your emotional it does not mean you cut... If I were you I wouldn't start to cut, you'll regret it.... but that's just mee... :D
