Emo Kids

I asked my 16 year old son about emo kids in his school. He said "We're middle class kids living in the suburbs. What have we got to be sad about?"

He's done some inner city missionary work down in Dallas, so he's got a realistic view of life.

If a boy is wearing lipstick I imagine that a good cry would fix his problems.

DBS,

Good for your son.

Erik,

Sad, but true. It's amazing that emo evolved from punk rock with the way that emo is so weak and wussy.

I remember stumbling upon a rather famous heavy metal site, and being shocked by how wimpy everyone seemed and how they were so careful about not offending each other, and the general mode of soft fearfulness. I've met middle-aged church ladies who were more hard-core...

It shocked me because I expected 'f' this and bleep that, and a level of sociopathic cruelty, but instead got 'kumbayah'.

HI! I think its mean to make fun of emo kids! I mean come on don't you have anything better to do? Emos are people just like us!.I have an emo friend devin who is the nicest kid ever.He held the door for me once when my arms were filled with books and they were gunna fall at school.I hate emo steroytypes that say all emos cut themself,or hurt themself.My friend devin doesent.

Your all fucking retarded...YOU CANNOT BE EMO, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS AN "EMO KID"...Emo is not a fashion, nor a subculture, it's a music genre,It stands for either emotive, or emotional hardcore, basically, it;s a sub-genre of HARDCORE PUNK, REAL emo bands include, rites of spring, circle takes the square, moss icon, dag nasty, joshua fit for battle, embrace, gray matter, portraits of past-etc- get it right you fucking n00bz

You're getting scene and emo mixed up..

Scene = Pays close attention to the latest fashion trends and usually tries to make their own. Usually has a myspace featuring dinosaurs guns etc. Usually has Long hair on guys and shorter hair on girls which is usually died different colors. Sometimes they are very elitist, especially to youths who copy their personal styles. Some fashion trends of scene kids are girl pants, band tee shirts, bandanas, vans, converses, shirts with dinosaurs/guns etc, large sunglasses, polka dots, head bands, large jewelry. They are emo wanna-be's.

Emo = Person who listens to emotional music, and usually cry and dont mosh at their concerts. Kinda of like goths, but less ugly and more emotional. Usually rant about how unfair the world is and how their last boyfriend/girlfriend was the only one they will ever love.
