Answer 2

Emo is a slang term derived from the word "emotional", used as a misnomer to describe a range of fashion styles and attitudes mistakenly affiliated with emo music. The term is also used negatively to describe a general state of unhappiness or melancholy (as in "to feel emo") as the stereotypical emo is often excessively unhappy and feels misunderstood. Emo is also used as a noun, often pejoratively, to identify a member of the "emo scene" (or more and more often, just "The Scene") or someone viewed as fitting the "emo" stereotype.
