The Emo Dissertation What is an Emo?

What the hell is an emo? Is it a movement? Is it a way of life? Is it an ideology? If yes then who the f**k started them?

Years ago I have been listening to Coheed and Cambria, Jimmy Eat World, Dashboard Confessionals and the like. During that time nobody had long bangs and tight, nut crushing pants. Was I an emo? I hope not. Here in the RP several teenagers and adults have joined that fad but do they really embody Emo Rock? I don't think so, for sure very few of them have even followed the music associated with that kind of music. Is the emo culture really about the fashion and not the music? I don't know I hope not.
