True definition of emo

Whats your true definiton of emo? Because I already know what it is. Im just curious to see you guys give responses to what you think emo is.

Their is no such thing as an "emo".
what's it to you?
someone who self harms?
or someone who wears super tight pants?

it's so stereotypical of someone to call another person an "emo".
because really it's defined as "emotional".
&& everyone is emotional one way or another.

sorry for kind of lashing out, but I hate when people use the term "emo" as a label...

stop testing people for fun. if you know than why ask?

why if I knew I was going to get lashed out on I would have never have pposted this topic well thanks for nothing.

Emo (pronounced /ˈiːmoʊ/) is a style of rock music which describes several independent variations of music with common stylistic roots.

there is no such thing as an emo
all the real ones are dead

I really think that the term emo is a total sterotype of people who like dark things and rock. we all are the same so why put eachother in catogories.

It's a way of being, a way of living, a way of breathing. It means you're a sensitive, empathetic, and overly-emotional (more than often depressed) person. But it's so much more. It's freedom of expression. It's rebelling, in a way, against the media and society - everyone always tries to be so "tough" by hiding their feelings, while we wear our hearts on our sleeves. Again, emo means so much more than this.
