ok here is the real truth. It's nothing but a label used to classify someone. There are however different meanings for the term emo. It started as a genre of music in the 1980's but later became a style as well. It refers to someone with hair long in the front of there face but it doesn't have to be in the back. (most of the time black) Skinny jeans are also popular and band shirts. You may hear that we are people who cut ourselves or are always depressed which is nothing but a stereotype because I have never cut and I am happy with my life and the way I am now is just who I fell I am. Like everyone else.

lmao- laughing my @$$ off (kinda like LOL)
Emo- well it depends if you mean the style, the attitude, or the music. In music world, it stands for Emotional Hardcore, and some bands considered emo are Hawthorne Heights and Thursday. Emo music is not very respected, and emo tends to have high pitched vocals and screamo. People who dress emo (usally ones that listen to it also) tend to have straight long black hair. The new thing for guys is to wear tight girl jeans (eww i know :P). The attitude, and some may argue this is a sterotype, is that emo's are depressed and cut their wrists....
i really hope this helps, i knows it a big thing now and i wondered for a while too....good luck !

emo=emotional... but a true emo isn't goth at all. emo is merely an offshoot of the hardcore scene of the late 80s. they're "emotional" for political reasons, NOT psychological ones, i.e. your standard goth with runny eyeliner.

here's some definitions of emo..
- Genre of softcore punk music that integrates unenthusiastic melodramatic 17 year olds who dont smile, high pitched overwrought lyrics and inaudible guitar rifts with tight wool sweaters, tighter jeans, itchy scarfs (even in the summer), ripped chucks with favorite bands signature, black square rimmed glasses, and ebony greasy unwashed hair that is required to cover at least 3/5 ths of the face at an angle.
ex. ::sniff sniff:: "The Demise of the Siberian Traintracks of Our Rusty Forgotten Unblemished Love" sounds like it would make a great emo band name. ::cry::
- Punk music on estrogen. Often acoustic guitar with soft, high male vocals that dwell exessively on the singer's feelings, especially melancholy remembrances of past relationships/mistakes in life. A form of music that diverged from punk in the '80s, the name "emo" is derived from the emotive style of the lyrics and music. This genre has lately been marketed heavily by the music industry to teenagers with bands such as Dashboard Confessional and Taking Back Sunday, and has seen much commercial and mainstream success. The music has also spawned a subculture which conforms to certain conventions in dress such as tight sweatshirts, tight band T-shirts and horn-rim glasses. Adherents profess to exessively melancholy temperments. Males that adhere to the emo subculture are sometimes confused with metrosexuals; indeed the line between the two is somwhat blurred, though both groups claim to be intouch with their emotional side. The ephemeral and hackneyed nature of emo songwriting suggests that its audience will be restricted largely to teenagers. the genre suffers from a lack of credibility outside the aforementioned demographic group, much like current Nu Metal bands.
ex. girlfriend: C'mon, lets have sex.
boyfriend: I'm too sad to have sex.
girlfriend: I'm sad too; lets have sex and cry.
boyfriend: I'm already crying.
- An entire subculture of people (usually angsty teens) with a fake personality. The concept of Emo is actually a vicious cycle that never ends, to the utter failing of humanity, and it goes something like this:
1. Girls say they like "sensitive guys" (lie)
2. Guy finds out, so he listens to ***** emo music and dresses like a dork so chicks will see that he is sensitive and not afraid to express himself (lie). He dyes his hair black, wraps himself in a stupid looking scarf, develops an eating disorder, and rants about how "nobody understands".
3. Now an emo guy, he meets Emo chick and they start dating, talking about how their well-off suburban lifestyles are terrible and depressing (lie)
4. Emo guy is just too much of a pussy. His penis is too small, he's too depressed to bathe, and has more mood swings than emo chick, and he doesn't even have a menstrual cycle. Emo chick dumps him, saying "It's not you, it's me." (lie) as she drives off with Wayne, the school jock and captain of the football team.
5. Emo guy goes home and cries, proceeds to write a weak song and strum a single string on his acoustic guitar. Another emo chick sees how he is so in touch with his feelings, and the cycle continues.
This is the sad truth of the emo lifestyle/music, and now that I look at how pathetic it really is, maybe the emos DO have something to cry about!
ex. When she sees how sensitive and emo I have become, she'll definately go out with me!
i think by lmo you mean lmao.. not lamo lol.. ive never heard of lmo it was probably just a typo.. and lmao = laughing my *** off
hope i helped =)

If you're an emo kid, you're a whiny, bratty, over-emotional, goth, basically.

emo is like 'emotional people'. its so gay and weird i dunno. they dress in all black and cry all the time or look like they are lmao i think its hilarious. they listen to sad songs and act all depressed all the time. they just want attention cuz apparantly they dont get enough from their parents. they just need to get a life or shoot themselves or something cuz they are a waste of a person.
