When Is It Okay to Be Emo

Posted on 26 February 2009 by Psych

Emo Kid. Unacceptable

Emo Kid. Unacceptable

The original title for this was going to be “When Is It Not Okay to Be Emo,” but then I realized if I started writing that, I would never finish. Why do I bring this subject up? Well, simply because emo teens are entirely too prevalent, and if they’re allowed to breed, then we’ll have emo adults… The world simply is not ready for that.

So, what is emo, and why is it okay to have a hatred for people who describe themselves as such? Well, according to the miracle that is Wikipedia, emo was originally a genre of music, an offshoot of punk. And if it stayed that way, it would’ve been fine. But what we have now is more than a genre of music; it’s an entire subculture.

And that’s not bad in itself. Every generation has subcultures, but they seem to be getting progressively worse. When I was a young boy, the in thing was grunge. That subculture promoted laziness, drugs, a love of flannel, and good music.

As a teenager, I got to see the proliferation of the goth. And while goth music might not be much better than emo music, the goth kids seemed to keep to themselves. I think they even hated everyone else. Plus, if looking at a bunch of teenagers wearing all black with white painted faces doesn’t make you laugh, then I don’t think you’d be able to convince me that you have a sense of humor.

Emo, on the other hand, is really a thing of evil. It’s a subculture that promotes whiny children, stupid haircuts, terrible music, and depression. Now, don’t get me wrong. I don’t care that the little kids are depressed. I’m just afraid that when they grow up, they’ll be the acquaintance that you just wish was never born. The one that never shuts up about how their depression and how they want to cut themselves to fix the pain.

But the worst part is, they have no follow through. Emo children talk about how they want to cut themselves or kill themselves or do any of a thousand things in their self-hatred, but they never do it. The goth kids followed through with their piercings. The grunge kids are still smoking pot and don’t have jobs. The emo kid is just a whiner.

But even still, the entire subculture shouldn’t be dismissed. It is okay to be emotional, it is okay to be sad, and it’s even okay to whine…sometimes. So when is it okay to be emo? There are four instances that I can think of.

First, if you’re being tortured, it’s okay to be emo. If someone is actually waterboarding you, you can whine. If someone is trying to electrocute your testicles, you can be depressed. If someone is forcing you to listen to Hanson…you can say that you want to kill yourself. We’ll forgive you for that, because no one would want to be in any of those situations. But as soon as those situations have passed, you lose your right to be emo.

Acceptable Time To Be Emo

Acceptable Time To Be Emo

Second, if something truly disastrous has occurred, we’ll let that pass too. Let’s say your house burnt down, a tree fell on your car, and your significant other left you for a goth kid. If that happens, you can be emo. At least you have a real reason to whine. It’s not like your mom didn’t buy you the iPhone you wanted, or that the car your dad got for your birthday was the wrong color. If something happens that’s so bad that you need medication to forget about the pain, you can dress in black and part your hair to the side. Unless the drugs are really good, then it’s still not okay.

Third, if you are making a lot of money off of it…you can be emo. In this light, My Chemical Romance isn’t actually a shitty band. They’re just pretending to be that terrible so they can make money. And that’s okay. In this economy, we’ll forgive you for that too. However, this does not extend to encouraging the subculture. You are not allowed to glorify the emo subculture in any way. Ever.

The last reason it’s okay to be emo is if you’re a fourteen year old girl. Why fourteen? Because thirteen is the first year of being a teenager, and that’s an adjustment period. If we let girls be emo then, they might think the entirety of their teenage years should be filled with depression and bad music. Instead, we’ll let them experience a year of being a teenager, then if they’re so inclined they can be emo for a year. Hopefully, giving them that time to reflect will make them realize that there are better things in life. Why only girls? Simply put, boys aren’t adorable enough to get away with being whiny.

So, when is it not okay to be emo? The rest of the time. Seriously.

    Personally, I think when one of your favorite bands reunites after 11 years apart, but decides to only tour one continent which you do not live on it is also an acceptable time to be emo. I’m ready to start selling organs here, I think that counts as something truly disastrous.

  2. Psych Says:

    I think as long as you have organs to sell, it’s still not okay to be emo. Definitely a close call though. I’m upset that two of my favorite bands are touring New York and avoiding L.A.

  3. Stickman Says:

    Nothing cures the downers like a good laugh, and what better way to laugh than being tickled. Which starts a whole NEW subculture called “Tickle Me Emo.” Now that is something that I would sign up for!

  6. Psych Says:

    @ angry emo kid: If you’re angry…does that make you not emo? I think it might!
    @Patrick: Lots.

  7. lord_abortion Says:

    actually i know plenty of emos that ‘followed thru’… most of them are dead… and the reason they followed thru was not because of a fucking iphone… it was because their families hated them to the point where they wanted them to die… shit my mom would most likely beat me with an iphone before she would ever concider buying me one… and emo music doesnt suck… just cause you like one genre doesnt mean all the others suck… it means you like different music… people like you make me so fucking sick when you misinterpret a subculture you know nothing about… and i hope to god that the day will come when you go through the same shit that a real emo goes through two fold… you deserve it…and worse… you make me sick you little worthless piece of shit… i hope that if you fall from your false insignificant throne, you fall fast and hit the ground hard head first, you asshole…

  9. Psych Says:

    Everyone lives and dies. I’m simply suggesting that while you’re alive your end goal to should be to increase your overall happiness, rather than wallow in self pity and despair.

  10. kyia Says:

    look
    this word emo pisses me off
    there is no such thing
    it is just a word made to describe people who are undescirbable
    so all the people who think they are emo
    and who call others emo
    can fuck off because they wwe are just people who like to be unique so what if we cut and like black and do what ever else it is that you guys thik “emos” do
    we are just people with a harder life that others

  11. EMO beat you down Says:

    ITS OK TO BE EMO!
    its not ok to be depressed for no reson

  12. keeara Says:

    wow…wow…this shit you rote was possibly the most prjudice, offensive , stereotypical thing iv ever heard…you douche if people want to kill themselves or cut they don’t do it cuz its fun!!.its because there in pain!!! and don’t judge what you have NO fucking idea about EMO-is still a genre of music, a SELF HARMER- is someone who hurts themselves deliberatly and a suicidal risk – is someone who is feeling like ending there life FOR A GOOD REASON its not like there ohh yeah im emo so i have to kill myself in my teens…there is nothing remotely funny about this page and shut the fuck up because do you have any idea how insignificant and bad you make people feel with this shit page you wrote…yeah my best friend cut and she was suicidal but shut the fuck up with the stereotypes, do you actually u want someone to “come through ” for you? and kill themselves to prove it to this douche who wrote this blog…i hope not. because if you do your even more of a n ass then i expected and believe me tat hard to beat of what im feeling about you now..

  13. emo chic Says:

    i have lots of emo friends and they’re cheery and all that crap. I’m the only one that gets depressed. I don’t get depressed fer noe reason tho. why do ppl hate emo’s anyway? that just makes them assholes

  14. Seroquelle Says:

    I don’t give a shit about emo subculture but don’t dare make fun of people with actual mental issues, i.e. depression.

    That is all.

  15. Skaterkidd94 Says:

    Not all emo’s are the same and dnt judge a book by its cover
    i bet in ur day kids like you cudnt read or write
    most ‘emos’ live a life that is so fucked up that its unbearable
    i mean if you experienced being raped twice when you were a kid then you would understand, obviously you’ve had a really happy life and cudnt care less about anyone else.
    and i have two words for you
    F-U-C-K Y-O-U

  16. jeff Says:

    hay FUCK YOU thats all i gotta say yuo fucking jerk
    dont speak about things your not familier with a hole i swear poeple >_>

  17. Austin Says:

    I have actual mental issues! Anyone who says they are “emo” is probably some annoying little jackass seeking out attention! FUCK ALL YOU SICK LITTLE JACKASSES!!! What are you trying to be???!!!!!!!!!!!!

  18. Not so emo :) Says:

    I don`t think he`s making light of people who are actually depressed, he`s just implying that many people of the emo subculture try to find any excuse possible to act depressed. There can be a distinction between a person who actually has depression, and a person who likes to whine about things to recieve attention.

    Haha, and I agree about the 14 year old girl part…I swear one out of every four 14 year old girls go through an emo phase! Yuck.

  19. Christina Says:

    Lol… wow, you really pissed off all the emo kids, didn’t ya!
    *to all others*
    “Kids?” *tap tap*
    “Is this thing on?”
    -Listen, it’s a fucking joke. All stereotypes have about 5% of truth to them…. which is what makes them so funny. Learn to laugh at yourselves, or you are REALLY proving homedude’s point! (Also, EVERYONE needs to learn how to spell. Don’t be lazy, it’s YOU, not “u”).

  20. Christina Says:

    …Hahaha, seriously (sorry it’s me again)
    “acceptable time to be emo” as a caption for the house on fire
    and NO ONE laughed at that?!
    I am bookmarking this. It will make me laugh evey day.

  21. a qualified quack Says:

    I am a doctor of psychology with a PhD in brain imbalances. I am qualified therefore to say that after being raped as a child, abused as a son, and rejected as a pariah, I am unstable. However, I used to be much worse, and I am good at my job because I can relate to my patients. I was cutting before emo was invented. It is true that some people are whiners and don’t follow through, but you are just proving yourself to be an idiot, beacause those people are easy to spot. As long as you use tact and common sense, no one does anything. Also please refrain from using explatives. You never know who is reading.

  22. Opinions count :Y Says:

    well…thats insulting to anyone who is emo o.O note to self: do not elect this guy for president he will become a social dictator…
    dude the diversity of subculture in my opinion is great, it’s their life, let them cut themselves if it helps them cope…they dont HAVE to be NORMAL in a GREY UNIFORM -.- as if the disapproval emo people already get aint enough then you start to wonder why they have suicidal thoughts…learn your psychology…(i never took a class but still)…if you think insults will help [anyone] feel better about themselves then you should really just shut up (although im not emo…so i dont know that) and bad music? really? thats what you think…the reason those bands are still in business even in a good economy is because there obviously are enough people who think its quite the opposite of bad music! and evil is an incredibly strong word…if you took some time to try and get an understanding [because if you call them evil then you also call anyone with anxiety disorders/bipolar or anything that isnt their fault its just how their brain works evil...yes you are also calling them evil] and i have like 20-100 more things i can say but im too lazy and i forget easily with a need to remember what i was going to say/waste time blah blah blah point is considering that i have 3 learning disabilities and one of them being an anxiety disorder (on a scale of severity of my OCD i would say about a 15/10 o.O) i would have one thing to say and one thing only…you’re an ass…

  23. Emma Says:

    wow ur so off , we dont whine , well them i seem to be using we alot and not all of them cut themselves , its music and a style that promotes emotion to be seen instead of people who try to act hard and not be sensitive to how they feel and us r always on about emos and cutting when u have grunge promoting taking drugs which is just as bad as cutting , iv been labeled an emo cuz of how i dress and what music i listen to and cuz i like the arts of life(music , art , poetry ect) and im not depressed , i mgiht be emo im not sure , but y do u all hate emo when its just as bad as eveyr other label that started out? it doesnt make sence its like cuz emos r hard and all tough makes them easy targets to pick on and its not fair seriously.And emo is an abreviation for many words liek emotional. Now where int he word emotional does it only mean sadness and depression , it doesnt, it means every emotion which includes happy and emo kids can be happy (wow betcha didnt know that) yh so when they r upset they turn to poetry and music and the stupid ones cut themselves. its liek when your angry or sad u cry or take a tantrum cuz it lets you get out ur emotions , which is what the emos do they express their emotion through art poetry ect. so can you plz just lay off them . goths and punks and rockers r just as bad tbh

  24. blah Says:

    This is stupid seems like a lot of fuss for nothing. If you like the music listen, if you dont obviously dont listen. makes alot of sense. i mean in my time there was disco, hevy metal, r&b hip/hop grunge but it was dif. peoples way of expresion. we all have that right. As for the cuts on yourself, i went through that the drug addict faze. But look at me now, i’m a father ex eagle and a damn good husband. So what you do, or what you listen to now says little to define who you will be later. Go ahead be president! You cant really do a worse job than some of our past { so called} world leaders…lmao.

  25. chris Says:

    Wow, why can’t emo boys (and i do mean boys) just grow up, take some responsibility and become a man. Don’t be such a whiny bitch. And the basis that emo music is meant to provoke emotion is horribly ridiculous. That’s what music is, it’s meant to provoke emotion, it dosen’t matter what genre it is so don’t use that for an excuse. If you do cut yourself go ahead, i sure as hell don’t care and you don’t have my sympathy. Everyone has problems, grow up.

  26. cattycat83 Says:

    LMFAO @ all the emo kids who posted on here. There’s nothing more hilarious than listening to a teen subculture trying to defend themselves. lol Some kids have real issues, some kids just want to fit in. The world thinks that emo kids are ridiculous and you can blame it on the kids who just want to fit in. Ten years from now you’ll all be burning any proof that you were emo anyway, so who cares. And even if you wear it with pride for the rest of your life, most people will forget you ever existed because another group of stupid angsty teen will be needed to be made fun of eventually.

  27. isaac Says:

    i can’t believe how many people want to categorize themselves as “emo”.

  28. Black rose Says:

    Uhm wow I’m 14.. And I’m a girl… Gee THANKS for permission to hate myself >_>

  29. Paige Says:

    Skaterkidd94: “i bet in ur day kids like you *cudnt* read or write” HYPOCRITE!

  30. tsam Says:

    You don’t have to be emo to be depressed, and you don’t have to be depressed to be emo. And if a person has nothing to be sad about or whine about, doesn’t matter if they’re emo, punk, scene, prep, whatever, then they shouldn’t be pretending to be sad. I know three people who used to injure themselves, and they’re not emo and never were. Ok, I’m forgetting everything I was planning to write, so I’ll just stop.

  31. 2 Funny Says:

    Yeah but emo chicks are HOT!!!

  32. Sarah Says:

    Honetsly, Emo started as emotive hardcore, then emocore, then emo. It was named such for the emotional proformances the bands gave. If someone wants to dress in all black, thats fine. Just becasue someone cuts themselve doesnt mean they are “emo” It means they are depressed and not because they didnt get an iphone. because they have a chemical imbalance in their brain. thats what depression is. A chemical imbalance. Ive had depression and i have cut. not for stupid attention but because it was the best way i saw to deal wioth my depression. I dont appreciate people calling me emo for it. What i have no patience for is people who call themselves “emo” and then show off tiny little cat scratches so people think theyre hardcore. Emo started as a genre of music. It shouldve stayed that way.

  33. ruby Says:

    I think that you have a bit of a wrong view on emos. i know some and they are good people and you saying that they don’t ‘follow through’ is a lie since most of them cut…

  34. PuNK BREEZY!!? Says:

    Well…what would really be defined as emo? Its pretty close to goth….isnt it? I dont fucken know, but dwelling on your sadness is reallly stupid, its somewhat understandable if you suffer from depression,or if something major happened, BUT if you are dwelling on your sadness because someone rejected you, or because you didnt get the iphone, and now you think your life is horrible and everyone sucks, then you need to shut the fuck up, and realize that those are reallllly stupid things to be upset over……people are tooo godamn whiny and emotional these days…..

  35. Katie Says:

    I have cut before and i am not fucking emo i cut because i have depression issues not everyone who gets depressed and wears black is emo you just need to shut the fuck up your makeing youself hated because this!

  36. lets start a riot >:) Says:

    For your information cuntface, I am emo. and if you don’t like our style of music, clothes or attitude, then i suggest you just ignore it instead of whining about it. you say emos whine alot, look at what your writing. It’s like cattycat83 chewed your balls off and then stuck it up your ass and blamed the emo kids. dont like emo, then eat a dick :)

  37. Xandra Says:

    I love how the people with real issues, generally are the strongest people and the people who will be most understanding and generally nice. And the least ‘Emo’.

  38. an unheard voice Says:

    i’m emo also but i’m not drepressed anyway just like lets start a riot >:) says if you don’t like our music, clothing or adittude then just shut the fuck up dude. just shut the fuck up!

  39. anna_banana_emo_chick Says:

    Dude, i am Emo. and after im done being depressed(and a few other things)…being emo is gonna be really fun! i mean isnt emo about being emotional, dressing how u want and listening to the music??? cuz for me it is. its just a coincidence that a lot of emo people get depressed. so next time think before u say when i can (AND CANT) be what i am. and i like the pic of the emo dude with the headphones…i want those headphones…
    .lol
    .DONT BE A DICK-CONTROL FREAK…!
    .plz…cuz people can be what they want and who they are
    .ENOUGH SAID!!

  40. me Says:

    i’m a really happy person but i think i’m mochosist or sumtin cos i cut but i love the emo style…? not every one who cuts is emo and not all emos cut there are different types of emo “emo” is actualy short for emotional and there are lots of different emotions…

  41. BW Says:

    Look all teenagers want to be different from their parents. This has been happening since the dawn of time.Best example is 1960′s England Mods vs Rockers. EMOS look like the MODS check it out, history does repeat itself
    btw I was a rocker

  42. ArankA Says:

    ok, I know it’s a late comment, but: I cut myself, i might dress weird, and i went through depression. but that doesnt make me emo, although i do call myself that way for jokes :P I love this article, i absolutely love it. All little emos should go fuck themselves, because when you have a little sense of humor, you can laugh about stereotypes, and also about yourself.

  43. erick emo kid Says:

    wtf is wrong with being emo emo is a style of music a style of the way u dress the way u look emo is a culture and again not all emo ppl cut them selves thats steriotyppical adn btw u should all be ahamed of your selves this is tecnicaly being rasiste its like being racial agains blacks or the whites or the browns(indians or the asians ok being emo is jsut the way some one dresses its a style like you have the rock stars then you have the hiphop styles being emo is being uneque btw wuts wrong with the hair style??? ik alot of ppl with it and it rocks and again is it wrong to show your emotions???? its being who you are so wrong???? and fyi emo does not stand 4 the devil

  44. erick emo kid Says:

  45. maddi Says:

    emo is about expressing yourself. You could just be emotional with depression, family, friends, or with your self. mabye you just like the color black. i see people who whear blue every day. music is a art about expressing yourselvs to.

  46. ibad Says:

    the best

  47. JoJo Says:

    Okay, here is the ting… Not everyone cut bcuz they are “emo” there are a shitload of people in this world that cut themselves. If you had a fucked up childhood, that’s may seem the best way to escape mentally… I’m just sayin’ there are so many other things in this world that are far worse. And yes I agree that there are some retarded ppl out there that are wannabe emos aka wemos.. Those ppl did not have a fucked childhood, they simply wish they had o.o Anyways, let’s say a dude ruined 4 years of you’re life from you were 12 to 16, and you suffer mentally from pressure and stress, let’s say you have cancer and you know you are gonna die in a year or two, and you have been beaten for no reason by 5 guys… Is it not alright to cut you’re self then? Is it so wrong to feel a little depressed and grumpy? Yeah, this is my story, I’m emotional, but my parent’s are strict so I cannot look like I want to, also they don’t know what you just read. Plz be aceptable of people that are not so lucky as you, and plz try understand or imagine how uncool it is…

  48. Kilo Pomeroy. (IamEmo) Says:

    Wow. Hate to burst your bubble to the author. This is a new generation. You may not like it but from your POV, you seem like an elder person, and well…..”Emo” means Emotional. And teenagers like myself who are going through tough times like loosing my best friend to suicide, another friend to the war in Iraq, and major family problems, is there a problem to write “emo songs +poetry”? You don’t have to wear eyeliner, or have long black hair or cuts to be “emo”, you just have to have emotions, and not afraid to express them. Not all “emo” kids whine or anything. Friends who are like me and we are classified as “emo”, we have amazing times, always smiling, laughing, expressing who we are in different ways. So you can go and shove this article up your bloody arse and stop being so stereotypical. Thank you, have a nice day. :)

  49. Wow Says:

    Lots of shitty trolls up in this bitch.

  50. Eli Says:

    Ummm to the author…back the FUCK off. And to all you people who think emos have to be depressed, well they don’t. I don’t call myself emo, other people do. I am not depressed! I just wear stuff that I like to wear, and be unique. They call my clothes emo, well its not emo, ITS MY FUCKING CLOTHES DAMNIT THAT I LIKE TO WEAR. Not cause I want to fit in, not cause I want to be cool, but because I am me, and thats how I am. You have a problem, well I don’t give a flying shit! My hair is considered emo, well I LIKE THAT KIND OF HAIR DAMN IT!!! I’m not trying to act like anyone. And I’m gonna have it like that, whether you like it OR NOT! So enough with stereotypical. Some emo kids *cough cough* ME haven’t had a hard life. I have nothing to be depressed about. So I’m not. I’m happy. Exept for right now cause of this asshole! I’m just emo. I have an emo friend, who has has been to hell and back, and is depressed, and honestly, I don’t blame her. But I’m not. I also have another friend who has had a hard life, and isn’t emo. THERE YA GO, BITCH.

  51. Maria Says:

    Okay, I agree with everyone up there. Emos don’t have to be depressed. And even if there are, so what? I’m not saying it’s a good thing to be depressed, but you have no right to judge someone that’s depressed when you don’t know their whole story. So stfu. People don’t have to be emo if they have a hard life either. You obviously have NO clue what you’re talking about. Everyone is different and everyone is their own person. You wanna’ dress and act emo, without cutting, that’s fine with me.

    Btw, I could go and bash “normal” people like you, so don’t go bashing emos.

  52. emogurl Says:

    me and 2 of my best friends r emo.back the fuck off jackass!yeah 1 of us cuts but he doesnt leave scars and he doesnt whine!!!!wat do u have 2 say now,bitch??back the hell off and leave us all alone!

  53. emogurl Says:

    emos r gr8 ppl back the fuck off jackass!!!!!!!!

  54. emomushroom Says:

    Emos are like any other person they just dress differently and listen to another type of music, most don’t cut themselves unless they’re really depressed, and not for not getting the iphone they wanted, family problems actually, and if they’re not going through depression they’re funny&random as hell you know, and they keep to themselves,it’s posers who whine about their life cus they want all that attention&want to be emo.Oh and My Chemical Romance is NOT emo, their 1st cd was post-hardcore, second had some elements of punk and goth rock,I’d just simply call it rock,3rd was alternative with emo I admit and the 4th is too happy dont you think?Do some research at least.

  55. emo kid Says:

    Im emo and i dont whine about it my sister died two years ago so i have a good reason to be depressed. But im fun to be around and hang out with friends.so next time you talk about a type of person get to know some one like them dont just follow stereotyps. And my chemical romance rocks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    wow, people had alot to say about this subject…
    All I wanted to say is that im not emo, but love a band related to that, and also dress and do my hair like the pictures of emo boys on google. I dont whine, I dont cut. I get straight A’s in school and like the dark look of ”emo”, plus girls think im hot. So im happy :) I dont discrimnate, i belive everyones equal. But some times people get very carried away in trying to decode the human mind. So….yeah…thats about it power to the people! XD

    Its me again, ;P
    forgot to say the only people everyone should be pointing fingers at is people who choose to bully others. Its a very bad circle, kids get bullied, they turn to cutting and deppretion, in turn makes the bullying worse because they call them out as ”emo freaks” and ”cutters” so if anything, stop bullying. Stop judging. Be happy for who you are, and for who others choose to be.

    not all people who cut themselves go label themselves emo and spend all their time complaining, and not everyone who wears ‘emo’ styles cut. also, mcr is a great band.
