What?
 
What is straight-edge? Somebody please tell me...

A straight-edge person (as far as I know) is one who decides not to consume any illegal drug, alcohol, or cigarettes. The whole straight-edge philosophy was pioneered by Ian Mackaye of Minor Threat.

In addition to that lot, it started up in New York (sometime in the last decade) as a reponse to the fact that underagers weren't able to go and see bands in clubs because alcohol was being served in the club. I think they started up alcohol-free gigs, so that everybody could go and watch and then it became a bigger thing, with people using the 'no-alcohol' stamps that they give underage people in clubs as a fashion statement.

That's not speaking from personal experience though, New York is nowhere near here. In Birmingham we need alcohol to breathe and drugs to keep us from falling asleep by 11am.

Hope this helps

Basically, no drugs, no...outside of a relationship sex? or casual sex and alcohol. Its basically a trend for dashboard fans now.
