Why do people think I'm emo?

I wear black and listen to rock music. But thats it. Is that why people call me emo??

Answer #1

Most people in today’s society are obsessed with labels. They feel safe and secure once everyone is categorized. Wearing black and listening to rock music does not necessarily make you emo, unless you consider yourself to be one. It’s very narrow-minded to call people emo. I get it all the time too!

Answer #2

People are dorks! Just becasue you do that does not mean your emo. It’s probally becasue they probally dress colorfull and yo don’t and they probally listen to rap and stuff which a hate. I wear black sometimes and all I listen to is rock but ya. It’s just cause they think your too uncolorfull I guess

Answer #3

Answer #7

to be honest i get annoyed when people label me. But we do it as well,because all the other people that are different from us, the people that like dance music etc, we call them neds or chavs. But people that label are wrong. Nowadays if we like rock music and like to wear black, then we are automatically called an emo. Pay no attention, cause you’re better than them.

Answer #8

oh my god I know exxxaaactly what u mean. I have a side fringe and my hair is naturally dark, and yeah I listen to my chemical romance but I also listen to non emo bands like iron maiden etc etc. All my friends call me emo and its so annoying. I dont wear skinny jeans and yeah I wear converse but lets face it most people do. just ignore everyone else. listening to rock music and wearing black does not mean your emo. xxx

Answer #9

because some people suck. they decide to label people before they even know there names, and start rumors, that arent true. so maybe its the way you dress “differantly” from them or just because you dont listen to the same music. or maybe its the type of people you hang with. just remember, people jump to conclusions, even when they have no idea what there talking bout.

Answer #10

because labels make it easier to make fun of people therefore that makes them feel like they actually have a purpose in life oh how they are mistaken…

Answer #11

BECAUSE OF THE EVIL MUSIC you PRODUCE AND COLOUR you PUT ON TO your LOL

Answer #12

people are such judgemental start hanging out with real emos then theyll think you are the same the only way i got rid of that was to where regular t shirts not black

Answer #13

basically if you wear black people automatically think emo…it’s rather stupid i think

Answer #14

Yes, that’s why. Though rock music has less to do with it than your black look.

Answer #15
