I do not hate emo's I HATE the title of Emo. It's become popular and well known suddenly in the last 5 years and it royally pisses me off. Seriously...a person can't even be sad anymore, for ANY reason, without having someone call them emo. I seriously remember when a person could be happy, sad, or mad. Now you lose someone close to you and cry and it's like "Quit being so emo! Go listen to your emo music, you wuss."

I can't..simply CAN'T... express how shitty that is. As for people who cut themselves, I don't give them sympathy for it, but I surely won't HATE them for it. I try not to discriminate against people for doing something stupid. If that was the case, I'd hate everyone for some reason. I actually find far less of a whiny and babyy attitude with their sad and sorry "attempt" at ending their lives, than people who simply baby and complain about said people.

Yeah, I keep getting called emo because I don't talk much and prefer listening to other people talk. How idiotic is that? I don't listen to MCR, FOB or any other emo band, so don't label me as something I'm not. I beat someone up for calling me emo, because I hate the lable emo and emos and emoness in general.

Yeah..well apparently now you are "overly emotional" if you happen to have a certain haircut or wear certain clothes. I never knew that defined how you FELT as a person. Not all "emo's" cut themselves and not everyone who cuts themselves are "emo". It's a stereotyping title that people who got tired of insulting "nerds" or "Jews" or "homos" had to create for "fresh meat".

I may be over reacting, and I may be getting angry (Oh no..I must be an emo. -cut cut cut-), but it's something that always bothered me. God forbid a human have -gasp- FEELINGS.

Some people who cut themselves are masochists, so, I doubt they'd appreciate being lumped under one stereotype. The whole clothes thing is stupid, I mean, how you look doesn't determine how you feel, unless you are completely guided by what other people think. People may have feelings but may tend not to express them.

You hit the nail on the head with that Ryan...
That is exactly what i despise most, even more than people who label themselves 'emo' after dyeing their hair black, buying skinny jeans and whatnot...

I just hate the fact that it has become a label and stereotype and the fact that people are called it if they're genuinely upset.

It is not cool...

Honestly, I've never noticed anyone for making fun of another person for just being sad in general, but being sad over something that's totally pointless to be sad over or stay sad about something longer then you should and have the inability to move on. Like if your parents die, that's something to be sad over. But if your kicking a fuss over not getting enough attention{when it's really not necessacary at that point}, getting a low grade on a relatively minor test, or not getting some product or whatever. Then you're a fricken emo. From what I've seen, it's not being sad that's seen as dorogotory, but rather being sad for idiotic reasons is what's seen as the bad thing. Then there's people who just see things way too negatively then they should and to the point that it's unrealistic... Which would be called an emo also. The clothes and style really have nothing to do with this, but the emo style has pretty well been around for quite some time if you connect with Goth style and it could be said that the concept of emos actually derived from them. To add to this, this style is really just used as an identification of sorts for people like these. Like how gangsters wear those rag things and how Tourists wear those shorts and typically bland hats.

Really, being as society is today, this emo thing has come to happen lot more commonly because we're more conscientious of their feelings and other people just seen this as foolish because... Well, what's there to really be depressed over? These people are generally the more mature ones or the more insensitive ones.

All that these emos really need is attention... Attention that they're willing to commit suicide for. :rolleyes:

Love=attention.

Absolutely disagree with both of you. Skyfire, that sounds very naive of you to say. I see where Drew is coming from, even if I don't agree 100% with him, he does make some good points. And obviously his community and my own regard "emo" differently. That being said, it's understandable why I won't agree 100%.

As far as love=attention, I couldn't disagree more with that. Though that's different debate entirely and essentially there is no way to prove either view. :lol:

attention is when people listen to you and talk to you and other stuff.
love is when people like each other alot.
there is a huge difference.
and just as she said,you guys would never understand.

Who are "you guys" exactly? Sounds like your fighting a battle against...invisible people. :lol: Just kidding.

The Love=attention convo is very irrelevant. Drew's point is kinda being proven. Skyfire, you sound like you are getting so VERY upset towards opinions. Granted I was mad too, it wasn't about anything someone posted, it was how I felt about my community's and other communities around me, method of "dealing" with the issue.

But seemingly over reacting, you are helping Drew's view on overreaction and becoming upset. To claim that he/we or whatever, will never understand love, seems like a desperate and very assumptive attack out of anger.

I would assume that your society is much more insensitive then mine. Being as that they pick on such meagre things.

Love does count as attention. How can you not give someone love without giving them attention first. durrr. :P

I don't blog and I don't tell people about my problems, I destress by listening to hard-rock and heavy metal. Emos have been hurt emotionally, so, if the emo is male, kick him in the nuts and tell him to smile or refer him to a therapist.

Probably not, maybe make them listen to some metal, which would probably be almost the exact same thing as what Danion suggested seeing as guys can't hit girls, even emo chicks.

So you're saying that if some women who knew martial came up to you and started beating the crap out of you that you would allow it?

I quite frankly hate that "males can't hit girls" idea.
