Emos?? whats your take

People talk about me all the time, because im emo
Its so stupid, when I go around the halls at school people shout cutter! At me, its so lame,

Why do people hate emo people???

Cause they have nobody else to pick on,people did that to me when one person found out I was Goth,it hurt me cause they kept yelling at me some messed up words I can't even say. Simply ignore it cause they don't know what I's like to be one and picked on about it,I'm pretty sure it will ware off,it can't last forever.

Some people hate on people who are not like them or people who are different.

First of all, you have to consider why people see you as Emo. Are you genuinely being yourself or just just following a prescribed movement.
Secondly, people do not like Emo's because Emo's are seen as an unproductive movement. Understand that being positive is socially acceptable, and longing on the past and being pessimistic is not.
Whether or not the above is true isn't really the issue, just understand that is why pople hate Emo's.

Personally I don't have a problem with most people if they are trying to be genuine.

I THINK IT'S CAUSE THEY are UNDER THE ASSUMPTION THAT EMO people are WEAK, AND STUPID ACTUAL WEAK people LIKE TO HURT THOSE WHO THEY THINK are WEAK... don't WORRY ABOUT people LIKE THAT. THEY are IMMATURE AND DEF. MORONS. U'LL MOST LIKELY END UP THEIR BOSS IN THE NEAR FUTURE LOLZ.
and THEN you CAN MAKE THEIR LIFE HELL!!!=]

it's because people are stupied and they think its funny because they have nothing beter to do and dont lisen to them and if you show that you can they kepp doing it

Because they're complete dumbasses. People tend to judge them by what's on the outside and don't even bother to get to know them. That's bullsh*t. a lot of lies/rumors have been started about them.

There's really nothing wrong with them at all. They're not all attention seekers, only the posers act like that. They're not weird, scary, evil or anything like that. A lot of people don't know the true meaning behind emo as a style. A lot of lies have been started about it such as emos cut/are depressed/are suicidal 24/7. That's COMPLETELY untrue. Suicide is something that should be taken seriously no matter what and has nothing to do with ANY stereotype. Cutting/self harm is an important matter that needs to be tended to ASAP. It also has nothing to do with any stereotype. Depression is a MEDICAL CONDITION. It has NOTHING to do with stereotypes. a lot of people have depression issues. That's something that should be taken care of by a doctor.

~As I've already stated, cutting/depression/suicide has NOTHING to do with being emo or any other stereotype. Cutting is a serious matter that needs to be handled ASAP. Depression is a MEDICAL CONDITION and a lot of people have it, NOT just emos. That should be treated by a doctor. Suicide is something that should ALWAYS be taken seriously no matter what. It has nothing to do with stereotypes of ANY KIND.

~Bulimia has NOTHING to do with ANY stereotyes either. This is a MEDICAL CONDITION that should be treated by a doctor ASAP.

~Dying your hair doesn't make you emo. A lot of emos have their natural hair color. Hair color has nothing to do with it at all.

~Attention seeking also has nothing to do with emo. Attention seekers are in a class all by themselves.

~Emo is a music type and also a type of style

~People who say things like I wanna turn emo, Am I an emo?, How do I be emo?, I think I'm going/turning emo!, Help me, I'm emo! or Help I think I'm emo are considered posers. If you have to ask other people how to look/be something, chances are your NOT and just trying to be something your not.

~Ignore the haters. There's absolutely nothing wrong with being emo. Emos are actually nice, friendly people.

~A lot of lies/rumors have been started about emos such as they cut, they're always depressed, they're very b*tchy and moody. This is NOT true. As I've already stated, self harm/cutting and depression have nothing to do with ANY stereotype. And you wanna know why some emos might be b*thcy? Because they're sick of the f*cktards who act like they know everything about emo, when in reality they don't know sh*t because they're the idiots that believe they lies! That's very wrong indeed.

~You DON'T HAVE to have piercings to be emo, or be shy. Some emo kids are actually very out-going. Piercings are a form of self expression and body art. It doesn't make you emo just because you choose to have them.

~Converse isn't something that makes you emo either. Some emos wear vans, others wear skater shoes.

~Wearing blue, or other funky colored pants... not emo. Sorry, they wear whatever they want. Not ALL are skin tight either. Some are just nromal skinny jeans or even a little loose-fitting.

~Band T's are also NOT a must. They wear any shirt they want to.

~If a guy is wearing tight clothes *such a skinny jeans or slim fit t-shirts* and makeup/nail polish... that DOESN'T make him emo or gay. They make skinny jeans for guys AND girls. Makeup/nail polish has become a unisex thing, meaning it's alright for GUYS AND GIRLS to wear it. People have the right to wear whatever the hell they please without being judged.

~If a guy crys, it doesn't make him emo. Guys are humans too, therefore they have feelings/emotions. It's 100% completely normal for a guy to cry/show emotion. We all have to sometimes.

Now THIS is advice for ANYONE to follow, including yourself -

ALWAYS be yourself. NEVER change who you are for ANYONE no matter what. Never change yourself just to fit in or anything like that either. True friends/lovers would be able to accept you for who you truly are.

se lavi sweetie...no matter who you are or where you are .. people will be people... what kind of people bother you? take a look at them...I'm sure there's a cliche on some part of them that's easy to abuse..and I'm sure you have it in you to make fun of just about anyone .. sorry...but that comes w/ the territory ... you want to be different? you'll especially have to pay the price...my opinion...it's a price well worth it ... after high school... it stops... well at least the lame teasing stops... in the future people will talk crap and be super nice to your face, you might actually miss the brutally honest, but in the open, ish talking...

I feel your pain at least people dont think you a bbbiiitttccchhh because your pretty and hang out with people that are so called cool I fuucckking hate my life itz so fake just like everyone in so don't feel bad you not alone in this world

because unfortuanlty majority of the people who talk about emo and majority of the kids who call themselves emo still have no idea what the word actually means
Emo is nothing more than a style of dress and a genre of music
it has NOTHING to do with cutting (self harm)
depression (a mental disorder)
suicide, eating disorders, ect
because feelings and emotions play NO part in any label or stereotype
which is what majority of the kids who talk about emo and majority of the kids who call themselves emo still don’t understand
that and a lot of wankers use the word as an insault
again, because they dont know the meaning of the word

people think emo is where they cut and stuff. emo comes from the word emotional.. I dunno why but its only a steriotype. people dont like anyone different to them its ridiculas

I do not understand why teenagers have this crazy thing about sterotypes. the emo style and music was way differant when I was in highschool. seriously someone made up words like scene, prep, goth, and emo. therefore they are used to discribe a person. I do not understand why people get so crazy and call people a poser bc of a word used to discribe your style. I think the whole thing is silly. be who you are and just dont care what others think.

it because they think all emo people cut themselves , I dont think they do as far as I no emo is another word for emotional

Because they are stupid, bored, stereotyping, and should really think before they blurt out random things.

emo is just a dumb label. and so is scene.

I have the same problem, I'm getting called names in school.Im an Emo, But just because I'm an emo doesnt mean I self harm or am deppressed, I self harm and am deppressed from getting bulliedso much but I think personally bullies are just f*cke up freaks!

I'm glad people are picking on you for such a horrible definition of 'unique'
you notice how half the world is doing this new 'unique' thing?
you look depressed cause you follow this stereotype. if you want people to stop calling you a cutter stop looking like your about to go home and slice your wrists open.
by the way, who ever you are or how ever you look- someone's going to have a problem with it.
the fact is you look like an idiot, if anything they're doing you a favor- this little phase of yours wont last. I hope this emo trend dies off soon. its disgusting.
