I just read something on here. What is "emo" and what is "skater" and what is "chavvy" or something like that?

Question

Kill me now.

Answer 1

You can usually tell an 'Emo' from a fashion view by floppy girlish hair (usually in face/over eyes) or big afro-style hairstyles on boys tight-fitting hipster jeans/chords, the colours black, red and purple. Longsleeved shirts where the cuffs come down over the hands. Loving to be miserable attitude. Think most of the poppish rock bands on the music channels.

Many emos look like a cross between a modern goth and part hippy.

Skaters are exactly that- skaters. Or people who want to dress like skaters- Avril Lavigne would love to be called a skater (but she's not... shudder). Below knee length shorts, padded trainers, hooded tops.

Chavvies are 'chavs'. You can usually tell a chav (from a fashion perspective) by large baseball cap either placed high on head or very low, hooded top (with hood over baseball cap), no socks, white trainers, tracksuit bottoms (usually white or blue for boys, pink for girls) hitched up about 2 inches above foot to show off ankles, gold chains, skin-tight ponytails for girls, big gold hoop earrings and really bad anti-social attitudes. Other things to look out for is teenage pregnancy, bad housing estates, mobile phones, theft and burberry. Only available in the UK ;-)

Answer 2

I think emo is the new fad word short for "emotional." In association with gothic or goths. As far as I know, a skater is a skateboarder. Unless kids are usin' it to mean something different these days. I've never heard chavvy though. I hope this helps.

Answer 3

Emo is a style similar to Greb. There is emphasis on a metrosexual hairstyle, usually black, with an assymetric fringe. Most tend to wear small amounts of makeup, usually mascara, eyeliner, lipstick or nail varnish. Its kind of a pop-goth combination. The name "Emo" comes from Emotional-Punk, which is where the stereotype comes from. The deragatory term, Emo, means someone, usually a guy of punk style, who is in a saddened state of mind, usually due to a girlfriend leaving them, and subsequently brushes his fringe over his face to hide tears, wears black and has scars on their wrist for attention.

Though a skater is someone who uses a skateboard, the term used in fashion is used only to refer to the style of clothes a skater might wear, made popular by recent mainstream skaters choosing fashionable apparel. Usually it refers to short cut trousers, a hooded light coloured sweatshirt or a t-shirt on top of a long sleeved shirt.

Chav is a deragotory term for a member of the general public who insists on wearing mostly labelled apparel (Nike, Reebok, Kappa to name a few) to emphasise their ability to buy usually expensive things. They also wear cheap gold jewellery, usually purchased from Argos or H Samuel. Unfortunately the mindset for most chavs is an offensive, in-your-face one. Usually they are prone to violence or even attempting to pick fights with strangers.

I suggest you look these up online as there are better resources.

Answer 4

please note emo is NOT the same thing as goth. it's similar to a particular branch of the gothic subcultures, but not really goth in itself.
emo is a kinda metrosexual emotional punk varient. they say its more about not hiding ur true emotions as well as other things. ( i think they look stupid in clothing style.
but thats just my opinion.)
skater is just that, people who skate on skateboarsd, rollerblades, etc. its an identification of their subculture, tho they dont often use it to refer to themselves.
chavvy is the people who dress im baggy stuff and lots of jewellery to show off their wealth in hopeless style, and most do have an attitude problem. i suggest searching in online if u wanna know more.

Answer 5

I guy or woman could have had to the two been in a coma for previous 5 years or in the dazzling's echo chamber to not word that conservatives have tried to paint Obama has something distant places and unAmerican, and his ethnic historic past has been critical to that attempt. that's not in basic terms something that Chris Mathews has commented approximately. different individuals, like Colin Powell have commented on it as nicely. that's what Mathews grew to become into alluding to in his comments. yet as continually, extremely of objectively reading his comments to purpose and understand why he pronounced what he pronounced and if there could be any validity to it, the dazzling brushed off it out of hand and grew to become it into yet yet another Obama / left bashing speaking element. This crap is particularly getting tiring.

Answer 6

emos are by general consensus, whingy little attention seeking depressives, not necassarily true though.
