    Just would like to see how many are here and how many of them dare to admit it.

    Well, since they can be recognized easily on the street, so why not admit it on an anonymus forum? After all you are who you are, you might as well be proud of it...

    Also, being an emo is more than just liking a special musical style.

    Kind of, but you guys should forget about the music already!:

    Fashion and stereotype

    Today emo is commonly tied to both music and fashion as well as an inspiration toward the emo subculture,[98] and the term "emo" is sometimes stereotyped with tight jeans on males and females alike, long fringe (bangs) brushed to one side of the face or over one or both eyes, dyed black, straight hair, tight t-shirts (usually short-sleeved) which often bear the names of emo bands (or other designer shirts), studded belts, belt buckles, canvas sneakers or skate shoes or other black shoes and in some cases thick, black horn-rimmed glasses.[99][100][101] This fashion has at times been characterized as a fad.[102] Early on, emo fashion was associated with a clean cut look[103] but as the style spread to younger teenagers, the style has become darker, with long bangs and emphasis on the colour black replacing sweater vest. In recent years the popular media have associated emo with a stereotype that includes being emotional, sensitive, shy, introverted, or angst-ridden.The media has also stereotyped it as being associated with depression, self-injury, and suicide.

    Please concentrate on the stereotype from now on...

    No I mean is it a band or a band member? Or is it just a way of saying 'emotive'? The word 'emo' has to come from something. And if I am stupid then you must be a rude asshole.

    They're basically Gen-Y goths, Lucy. With a twist.

    Emotional Hardcore.

    Their parents were goths, so they've had to create their own version to distance themselves from them.
    Gen-Z probably won't have a bar of it.
