Emo isnt a lifestyle.
Slitting your wrists doesnt make you emo, theres a term for people that do that anyways; they're known as cutters. The stereotype used to be associated with people that fit the fashion. It was just a way to make fun of them, even though the stereotype wasnt true. But now, people use it for anything thats sad or dark. Its really retarded if you ask me...
Anyone that follows the stereotype of emo, in hopes to become a "true emo" is a poser. Im not trying to insult your friend, but thats what a poser does.
So your answer would be NO. :-)

She is trying to find someone in whose eyes her actions do not look so 'strange'. The more she meets emo people who DON'T slit their wrists, the more outrageous, extreme, or abnormal her behavior appears.
She is emo, but an extreme version of it. It's kinda like the difference between being a singer and being Mariah Carey: both are considered singers but to different degrees.

Are you serious. Girl, I know what emo is because of my kids. Back in the day, you only slit your wrists when you want to kill yourself or mostly its the people who need atttention. YOU need to focus on who YOU are .......not what some trend or click says to be wether thats emo or not. Who cares. Be yourself. You dont sound like you want to kill yourself, and if you slit your wrists, you might. Emo people tend to be depressed. Thats where that comes from.

Sounds to me like your friend is just a POSER!!!! How dare her tell you , you have slit your wrist to be emo!! Some friend telling her friend to harm herself , i wish i had a friend like her!!!
Sounds to me she does this for attention, to seek all emo's approval to be a part of this "emo trend". Get a new friend she can't tell you who you are if you feel your part of the (emo trend) then you must be whether or not you cut yourself!!
Don't slit your wrist PLEASE!!! jUST GET A NEW FRIEND NOT ALL EMOS SLIT THERE WRISSSST!!!

Wot? Some suck that didn't have the fortitude is giving you some ultimatum....dah...you are who you be and said person can take a hike if their wrists allow it - you on the other hand are walking tall and doing it for yourself! Doesn't get much better than that - you be as emo as you want......it's all about you

ok, firstly, why are you so desperate to be emo?? what's wrong with just being YOU??? you dont have to attach a label to yourself...
and please, please dont cut yourself. its stupid and dangerous and you will regret it big time in later life.
i know loads of people who consider themselves emo - and none of them slit their wrists. if you're going to make yourself part of the group, then be the mature one and choose not to do silly, immature things.

Sterotypes are basically a ingredient of life.... that's pointless to even say people shouldn't do it because of the fact on occasion all of us do it without even intending to... of direction thats to no longer say that they seem to be a reliable element, because of the fact they could reason various negativity to teams using movements of just some people interior of that team. i think we can all attempt to loosen up some on stereotyping, yet like i mentioned, on occasion people do it without even realising that they are...
