What the term emo really means

[MistressBlackSun]

People treat "emo people" as if there another species of human or something.......the true fact is that emo is a music culture! it's a type of music and the people that listen to that music tend to dress according to the culture. Like punk rockers dress a specific type of way according to the music they listen to. Now not everyone that listen to the genre emo dresses according the the music culture it's a personal choice. Emo has NOTHING to do with self harm.

[dthelonelyone]

Hey i am black go figure, I guess I emo

[dthelonelyone]

The good guys wear black.

[LifeAsVikki]

Emo stands for emotional, aka self injure...

[MCRhasAFireInside]

(to the top comment) emo emerged from punk.....

[iYuppurasss]

what? emo is short for emotional but now its just fashion and when you self injure like they only do it cause they r depressed of something and goth is a style 2 you wear black clothing and makeup

umm. Blah blah. He isn't into the Hot Topic bs.

Uh yeah, by the way, I'm a Hot Topic junkie, I just hate what they've become to gain more sales. Yada yada.

[bestmusicperson]

SERIOUSLY? Dude, emo is a genre of music. It's impossible to be 'emo'. I get called emo/gothic/scene everyday because of how I dress. It's just all bullshit labeling. Also, labeling someone on how they dress is bullshit. My boyfriend is gothic. He doesn't wear all that stuff. It's his personality. And anyone who knows him, knows what goth is and that he is that. It's basically a way of thinking and having a bit of darkness to you. It's real easy to fake. he dresses dark but isn't into the

[SuperEvilEmoCupcake]

[DinosRawr3]

@EpicBry1 What she meant was black skinny jeans, punk band t-shirts, and heavy eyeliner (not how "most american girls" wear it, which makes them look emo because of their pale complexion). And wow since YOU say that you know so much about this, what is the age where everyone "understands how to be emo"?

[DinosRawr3]

@ Iwatchtrek  Wtf? lmao all random xD

[ShiroMeidoMisaki]

If you say youre an emo, youre an emo. Say youre a goth, youre a goth. It's pretty easy. The end.

[usarmymichanic]

@ShiroMeidoMisaki trruth im both plus skater

[Iwatchtrek]

You look like a girl I could fuck in the ass.

[EpicBry1]

girl, PA-LEASE!! EMO doesnt mean you wear the skinny jeans. it doesn't mean you wear the punk t'shirt. and every girl i know wears eyeliner. all that stuff you described is pretty much the average for most american girls, hun. so stop acting like you know what you are talking about cuz you are too young to understand it all anyways.

[KISSABLE48]

shee dnnt even luk emo

[SlipknotFanGirl22]

@badass22794 stereotypes. Goths can be of any religion, genius. It's about being yourself.

[badass22794]

Emo Means sad Depressed Sad In Pain And Goth Means Someone Who Be leaves In The Devil.

[XxXgOtHiCcHiCkXxX213]

i completely agree whit whaqt you are saying. i am semi goth and emo people judge me all the time saying that i cut myself and i worship the devil its bull sh!t yes i wear black and stuff but i DONT cut my self or worship the devil. people are stupid. thank you for making this vid. you have said every thing i have been trying to tell there closed minded dumb asses

[49tubeless]

My best friend is goth and she wears skinny jeans, converse, metal t shirts, cool clothes, but shes goth not emo and she loves blood and sticking needles into her skin so im confused???

[40alec]

@49tubeless your dumb not all emos like to do that i dont jst think about what you say next time

[MetalCrazed100]

My friend wears skinny jeans, punk T-shirts, but that doesn't make her emo. Emo is short for emotional. She is NOT emotional, she is very cheerful. This just makes me upset.

[o0Hatoon0o]

@MetalCrazed100 ..come'n everybody s emotional and has problems,an seekin attention so everybody now r emos !!

[TheDano1947]

[SnowWhite935]

dont mean so sound too incriminating, but am i just seeing things or did any one else notice something on her left arm? i'm just wonder, not that i'm suggestion anything, even though it really sounds like i am, but go to 1:58 sec i think it might just be pen writing though. i do that sometimes, but i can't tell from the video

[PimpedMyTrike]

only fat chicks can be emo, u must leave lol

[xXMyFuckingMusicXx]

@PimpedMyTrike, I think it is the total opposite!:

[christianboy580]

emo is a genre of music that has turned to a style emo means your emotional not that you hurt yourselfff the point is to be unique...the girl in the vid cleared it up preety good.

[killallsuvivors]

emo is short for emotional hardcore which is a type of music its followers dress a way and listen to emo music and are catergorized emo music was a 80s thing and it died years ago there are no real emo bands post 95 if you think your emo you probably are if these charactaristics are relevant to you your emo if not your not emo and if someone calls you emo tell them there wrong and they dont know the meaning of the word

[AngelDan2811]

your right i think people dont really know wat emo or goth means and every one thinks emos are deppressing but there not

[luvdrunk13]

Umm actualy.. Emo iz a kind of music expressing pain .. Nd thts where ppl take off frum itt. Shows how thy feel:\\

[Jackwmf]

Probably not even 1% of emos cut... people just think they do because of all the internet imagery thats floating about..

[scorpiokid26]

wtf there is steps to being emo this shit is gay if u have to follow ppl and cant b a leader then u need some help man y cant everyone b themselves not whiteboys tryin to b ghetto or gangsta or oh im goth look at me i dress like im going to a funeral every day come on ppl get with it live like a person and quit tryin to b "cool" all u r doing is being fake! Learn how to live without being judged for what ur wearing or tryin to b somethin u arent

[kevmanrule]

thank you for clearing it up...im tired of it...people are full of bull. emo only means you are emotional. you get sad very easily or even mad easily. you know its not about cutting yourself or skinny jeans its about the person inside,

[TheBIGUNN]

she is really beautiful im not lieing i would be serious and date her

[Panheadperson]

@TheBIGUNN awww thks:) you made my day(lol i know this is like almost a year later but still...)

[AWESOMENESSCAKES]

haha my friend sed hes emo and he sed he is bc he just gets rlly sad sumtimes and some dood was like thats called normal.

[ETFheadbanger11]

not gunna lie....shes hot

[98girlfun1]

ok, so emo stands for emotional and/or emotive. soemtimes there emo because mabey when they where small they had problems in there lives and stuff like that, thats why they wright poems to express theyre feeling and they cry allot ( i think ) and stuff like that!

but some of the people just like the style and call them selfs emo! ( i like the style myself, but my mom wont let me have it, but i still where all the things she said, only my hair and make up is kinda diffrent )

LOL, thank u!

[saranghaeyo99]

@98girlfun1 Emos don't necessarily cry a lot actually. xD

[KeyonNinja]

ugh ok ill explane something to you all scene goth emo are all realted to each other if you like it or not. They all came from the same style. punk first i think was goth that was when the punk music styl started to change and the music was called gothic = goths. and then emo splinterd of the goths thats why many goths call emos posers. then finaly scenes from emo.then many diffrent styles came. correct me if im wrong

[TheRyaNate]

I get what your saying, but... if you quit looking up emo videos, you wouldnt have to get pissed off over someones crude humor.

[kitty1kat1pur]

oh and hot topic is for vamp kids

[kitty1kat1pur]

hmm ok i am emo but this kinda scares me a bit you talk about self harming girl u cud just have said that emo's dont always self harm they are just emotional i mean after all that is kinda why we are called emo :P

[cenyan13]

punk has nothing to do with emo. dont even associate the two. thank you.

[killallsuvivors]

@cenyan13 it did you fucking moron

[cenyan13]

@killallsuvivors what I'm trying to say is emo is a disgrace to punk.

[eatmiiface]

bless you, i think you should learn how to put on eye linerr (:

[Panheadperson]

@eatmiiface ok 1 iz that all you can notice bout my vid? 2 let peaplez put on there makeup in their own way

[CosmeticReviews]

[CosmeticReviews]

Evidently, she thinks she is.

[Panheadperson]

[CosmeticReviews]

@Panheadperson

Well, considering the fact that you make a whole video about them...It would only be logical.

P.S.

[cenyan13]
