Why the "emo" hatred????
 
What is it with people consistantly calling me an "emo"????? Just because I choose to wear black clothes and listen to individual music, It's not right to be labeled as emo, indie, goth ect. if the person being labeled doesn't want to be labeled!!! If my Dad happens to be reading this, I hope he gets the message!! :rolleyes: :mad:

you are like my daughter:D, except she dont mind being called a emo;)
always wears black or tarten, stripy socks the lace gloves, and black eyeliner all around the eyes:rolleyes:

one thing i must point out though, is that they do not slice their wrists or think of suicide, now that gets up her nose!

If you really do have an individual taste in music then no one is right to call you 'emo'.
Emo's are nothing more than chavs in drag. Same idiotic gang mentality, equipped with equally mind numbing, deranged forms of music*. Emo's are just sheep - they get the generic hair cut (fringe over one eye, died black or black with bleach blonde patches), listen to the generic music (Panic! At The Disco, Fall Out Boy etc.), and wear the same generic clothes (skinny jeans, incredibly ugly scarves, tight fitting band tee and new rox [this is just the blokes]) - there's no individuality there whatsoever.


* - term used extremely loosely.

We all go through phases, i always wanted long hair like some wild man of rock and wore a biker jacket, ripped jeans etc, looking back i looked a right T**t!!!!! eventually you`ll grow out of it and if the music is good enough your individual taste will stay with you for life, enjoy it while it lasts, don`t worry what anyone says. (God i`m dreading my daughters getting to this stage!!!! LOL.) i`ll just keep reminding myself of this post.ROCK ON

In the 1950s the trendy look for girls was-
pencil skirt, suede jacket, ballerina flat shoes,
and a DA haircut (ducks a**se)

i think we all went through some kind weird fashion phase at one time or another. remember the 80's ( new romantics anyone?) my daughter likes the emo/punk/goth thing .i like it better than the tracksuited chav thing tho! i think all kids want to be indivduals but they want to do it with their freinds so they still fit in(that last sentence made sense in my head!):cool:

And that was just the lads !! LOL

Flat shoes with a pencil skirt ??.. oh, no, no darling ... had to be stilettoes !
Thought the DA's were for the lads ? (Unless you were of a certain sexual persuasion of course !)

I quite like the Emo look. Very sexy and mysterious.

Definitely not white Panther !!! They always look scruffy I think.

At least you have to put a little effort into the Emo look which will do your daughter no harm later in life when she changes her style.

Your confused pal, Fall Out Boy are barely emo, same with Panic. They are just the pop bands that the clueless have associated with emo. Real emo tends to be harsher, try listening to My Heart Bleeds No More by Silverstein - that is an emo song.

Also the clothes sound as much indie as emo.

As to the whole labelling and grouping thing I could never be arsed with it, I listen to what I like whether it be hard rock/metal/punk/emo/indie and the same with the way I dress - though to be fair it's always loose jeans rather than the helium-substitutes.
