But if the style attributed to it is nothing but that, they sure go dramatic over it...besides, I have heard a million and one different definitions...

Yeah I like the emo music genre and listen to it a lot too. I really love the music and I think Emo is around because some people are able to relate to it. I mean it's like a double edged knife. It gives people a taste that they are not the only the only ones who feel that way and give them a reason to feel better. Others take it the opposite way and take it as a point where they cut themselves or commit suicide. I not a supporter of the emo's that are just attention seekers and cut their wrists to get attention but there are people that are truly depressed and need help. I mean just a few months ago I had someone tell me that a girl at my school cut her wrist becuz she was supposedly depressed cuz her friends turned on her but it turns out she never even attempted doing it and all she wanted was attention. Everyone goes through a time where things are not going so well and you are often down. I think that some people have to understand that and shouldn't hate people that are usually sad becuz it's probably a phase at the time. I bet over half the emo population are teenagers and most of them grow out of it. In my opinion, I think the preppy people are the reasons why we have emo people cuz I think that if they didn't have to put people down so much we wouldn't have all these cases of depression or suicide. If we just left people alone and respected them for who they were, who knows? Maybe emo's wouldn't exist?
