EMO- from an "emo" person himself...
Emo is a steryoype used by preps, idiots, and the other types of people known to the world. Emo is an attitude, type of muisc, and style. Emo is not emotional, but many emo people are. Emo stlye is usually all black, or darker colors. Emo people are usually either shy, sad, heart broken, depressed, or abused. Many people think that emo people are the same thing as "cutters". This is not true. Emos and cutters are very diffeent. Some cutters are emo, and some emos are cutters. Sad to say, society makes the emo population feel even worse about ourselves. If they could stop their ignorance for a minute, and just talk to us, youd see just how cool we are.
So you can see how people steryotype us.

It was originally a type of music branching out from punk formerly known as "emotional hardcore". Included bands like Rites of Spring, etc. Emo when it first started was pretty much like modern indie. Modern-day emo branches into screamo, and also sparked the current 'scene kid' trend, characterized by wearing neon bright colors of makeup with black, teased hair, blahblahblah. It's a stereotype that 'emo kids' cut themselves. Not all do. Not all of them are depressed. Some do it for the fashion, the label, the music, whatever. A lot of these so-called emo kids listen to crappy bands like Panic! at the Disco, My Chemical Romance, The Used, etc. They all look the same. They're similiar to 'goths', but more melancholy than angry.
