emo is not a minority as much as you wud like to say it is like townies,chavs,goths,skaters,punk, all of these are minorities.

emo is anti-minority, we go against the idea of the world being grouped like herds of sheep because soon enough all the minorities will be one minority called 'the people who are in groups'
and hardly anybody will not be included in this

all except the emos, we dont follow the fashions because we dont see the need to wear wot sum1 else wears, so we wear our own style.

this goes for emo music, emos are named emos not because they try to be emos but because they are naturally involved with the ways of the emos, its the way the truely think of life, thats what makes them emo, they dont think oh thats an emo band i gotta listen to them, they think 'o this bands music has so much relation to my life it makes me wanna cry' THATS EMO MUSIC
so to all the people trying to stereotype emo music, get a life dudes there no point

Holy crap thats confusing.

So youre 'anti-minority', but 'hardly anybody will be included in this'?

And you 'dont follow the fashions', thats why you all wear the same things...

I especially like this : "emos are named emos not because they try to be emos but because they are naturally involved with the ways of the emos, its the way the truely think of life, thats what makes them emo"

I see. So you guys were naturally born this way. Fair enough.
EDIT: So what's the way that emo's truly think of life? Im interested. Because last time I checked, emo wasn't a way of life.

You know, I have no problem with emo music. Just a lot of the "emos" as you called them. Just stop thinking youre something different, ok? If you go out of your way to fit in with the emo fashion, then how the hell are you different? It just makes no sense. I went into town last weekend, and I saw a huge group of "emos". They were all dressed up, all looking pretty much the same with slight variations. They just strike me as very very insecure people. Im secure enough in myself that I know who I am, and I dont feel the need to dress up. I wear what I want, because I dont want other people to look at me and think "Oh she's a punk" or "Oh, shes a goth" or whatever. I dont want that. I'd rather be looked at as a person, thank you.
