Understanding 'EMO' and its musical appeal

emo = emotional we should all know this,
you cannot belittle a type of music and say it is wrong if YOU DONT LIKE IT that is stupid and ignorant, people (mainly the daily mail and its readers, or other self obsessed *) beleive emo is music that has made a generation sad, nothing to do with school bullies, parents divorcing, stereotypes being slated and children themselves being told they are freaks and listen to the wrong music.

mother: "son this music you listen to, my chemical romance, its wrong"
child: "oh ok mother i'll stop and listen to pop"

thats never going to happen
encourgae people that theyve found a music they like and can be happy when listening to it, no one should ever say "haha youre emo" it should be "oh, youre emo, cool" respect people 4 wearing whatever they want to even if its skinny jeans or eyeliner, i myself have never worn these clothes but would be tempted only to see the reaction of people who are so up themselves they feel they need to comment on what others wear. to you people you need a life. you need to stop contradicting mine. you need someone.
