Should I be punk or prep?

Hey so I like punk but not the look like spikes and stuff and I love to waer black everything I am sorta emo ( please define emo for me ) so just tell me I dont care I like people to boss me around PLEASE!!!

Labels are overrate - cant you not just be yourself?

emo = emotional - and hey... it dosen't really matter, just be yourself... cause that's really the best choice =) if that's you in the pic displayed, then I think you look lovely as you already are!!

mix and match. if you like the rocker type look then don't shy away from buying hot black boots (always with a heel, even a small one) and pair that with something preppy...like a stylish skirt (Im thinking something designer - esq). Just have fun with your style. As long as you are happy with how you look (and of course appropriately covered) then you are perfectly cool.

I agree. Labels and stereotypes are in fact, overrated. I think you should just be yourself instead of trying to 'go' for another 'type'. Ill assume you might end up having to fake a personality. I don't know. Be yourself. :3 People should love you for who you are. Not for what you want to be.

Either way, if you want my opinion though if you're going to chase a stereotype, I would go with Punk. Approximately 80% of preps at my high school gets some horrible disrespect. Its your choice. I would go on a decision based on the looks of the stereotypes, and what other people will think of you...

gl. :3

be youuu!

well be yourself. dont decide on what your going to be.

*cough*
poser?
*cough*

look lady...just calm down, and be yourself. Hecka yeah. Labels are overrated. Be unique, and different.

ummm if you want to be prep your NOT emo or punk and if you think your emo or punk your not a prep lol silly girl

and how old are you? 9? lol funny a 9 year old thinks shes emo lolz!!!

umm you should be urself

1st off, punk doesn't wear black everything
you might want to look them up, you're nothing like a punk
they are an actual subculture

Emo
From my recourses supposedly an Emo was originally just a slang word used to describe some bands that got emotional, originally fans of Fugazi(basically Emo being short for emotional), a post punk band, in mid 1980's. It later became a sub-genre. Most found it offensive & disliked being labeled Emo. The original Emo is what is now modern day screamo, there were 3 waves. I believe the second wave some how led to the third wave which is modern day. It was basically when new music was cropped under the labile Emo Such as Weezer & such. Origonally thick glasses & plad shirts were common in the style along with fringed bangs & hair. In modern times the fringed hair is still quite common but it now in style to wear black, tight jeans & usually a band t-shirt or some type of design. But if you look hardenough you can tell the style is still kinda related to Punk.
During the third wave of Emo it became common for people to slit their selves to 'fit in'. How that works out I don't know. Note: not all Emo's slit themselves.
Emo is not a subculture, it's still a subgenera. Rumor has it, however, that a movement is being made to make it one
In my honest opinion Emo is not based on a solid foundation enough to say what exactly is & is not Emo, specially when it comes to terms of music. The basis of emo has been changed twice except for the one basic Emo is short for Emotional. But when you think of it, how can one not be emotional when it comes to their music? Look at Cradle of Filth-their Dooms Metal, 69 Eyes- Romanti Goth, Amy Lee- Plasti Goth, & a lot other musicians.
But hey, from what you're telling us you're best bet is a modern day emo

just be yourself for crying out load
do what you feel is right

ok... if you need to ask other people what you should be your a poser. No one likes a poser. Just be yourself.

Oh boy.. you say you're "sorta emo" but then you say "please define emo for me"? How can you be or sorta be something when you don't even know what it is or means?
