Emo Boy Fashion
They are stylish, sweet, and mysterious. Or are they mean, oversensitive , and depressed. A lot of people think they know what emo guys are like. But the truth is that there are a lot of different personality types that join emo and emo itself is not even a clear term. But let’s explore “emo guys” anyway by hearing what the they themselves and their friends have to say. Perhaps, if we can’t define “emo boys” we can get a clearer sense of the variety and make sense of the patterns we see.
“Exceedingly emotional, the Emo Boy is very artistic and expresses a great deal of his emotions through poetry, music or art. This species is very open with his feelings and will not hesitate to declare undying love to the object of his desire.”
“They are deep and caring and dont care whether you are "cool" or not.”
This might have some truth. A lot of boys relate to emo because of… well… the emotions and expressiveness. Therefore, these guys are probably more in touch with themselves, and thus, have more originality in their beliefs. Right brained individuals have many emo characteristics such as sensitivity, creativity, introversion, and deeper emotions.
Emo guys are Sweeter than normal guys
“im dating an emo boy and hes realy sweet but, they all have diff personalities”
“GENERALLy in my opinion emo boys are better than
those preppy and hip hop guys..
They are Way more mature than those arrogant boys
and don't think they are coolest thing ever.
“they care and understand your feelings
and are generally more loving than other stereotypes
once they fall in love. “
And Ive seen other stereotypes more loving and sweeter
than emos, Im talking generally and based on my opinion and exprience.”

Like we discussed in Emo Love, emos tend to feel every emotion deeper because they are right brained, so it would be no surprise to hear that a lot of them are compassionate towards other people. Right brained people are in fact so compassionate, they often get involved in politics and activism.
Emo guys are Depressed, Overdramatic, and Mean
“This emo guy I’m seeing is nic, but some of them are just plain a55holes”
“They are too much drama. I once met an emo guy, and he acted like he was on his period. He was crying one minute, telling me how red hair was valued in the European gothic culture, then crying again. It was too much for me, but I guess that because I'm a sporty and a little bit nerdy (Just because I get straight A's, lol.) prep. =] But, I'm sure not every one is like that.”
“ Emos come in all flavours. My friend is an emo but also an asshole.”
“ Emos come in all flavours. My friend is an emo but also an asshole.”
“Just because they are "emo" doesnt mean they all have one personality just like every normal person they all have different personalitys. I know a few 'scene/emo' people and some are nice others are jerks, some shy others outgoing, coceited, and self consious.”
“Okay....Emo guys make me SO mad!....They are cool and GREAT to hang out with and be around...but why do they think they can get you to do what they want by sayin' they're going to kill themselves because they're soooo depressed, when they KNOW and they know you KNOW they won't do it if they told somebody?!...”
These people seem to try to stay neutral in their opinions that there are all sorts of emos out there, but they seem to also notice that there actually are depressed, overdramatic, and even mean emos out there. Just like any other group of people, they seem to have their extremes – good and bad. So why might emo boys be this way sometimes? Well, some music in emo is definitely about bitterness and depression. So it is going to attract those kind of people in naturally.
But everyone has some angst, even positive people, and so a lot of people are going to be able to relate to emo and join. In addition, Emo music is also about a wide range of other emotions that people can relate to deeply, including positive emotions. So that is probably why there is so much variety. Because emo music is so strong about the emotions, you will get more people on average who are more extreme with their emotions. On a side note, in terms of shyness, the traditional emo mindset is probably more shy because they spend a lot of time in their head exploring their feelings
Emo guys are really into their Looks
Isn’t that a girl’s dream come true? A boy who loves fashion. Not only would he look good next to your arm as a second self walking accessory, but he would also *gasp* go shopping with you?! According to some insider sources and the obvious, this claim has a lot of truth to it. You have to be into your looks to be emo. The hair is left long and parted to one side, dyed black. Tight clothes are put on. Makeup is put on. Now if that isn’t caring a lot about looks, I don’t know what is. They pride themselves on the skinny look. And add to that, extra emotions… They are pretty much women! But to other girls, they are manlier and sexier than ever. I call it the Johnny Depp pirate effect. Go figure.
“Is it just me, or are emo boys really hot at the moment? That combination of funky clothes, super stylish hair and 'I don't give a damn' attitude is so cool, and I never knew how good a little kohl could look on a guy - intense!”
“yesssss, i love the emo look.
and i love the tight jeans, and there hair.
=] imsingleeee ;] lol”

How To Define Emo Clothes
Emo clothes are a hard thing to define if you have no idea of what they may be. Emo clothes are inspired by a type of music, which has its roots in early eighties hardcore. You could say that emo is combined with more melodic and experimental music. Like all forms of expression, emo clothes are representative of that image. People dressing in emo clothes like to be noted for their individuality and expression, yet they are in danger of all looking the same. The problem with emo clothes is that they are worn as a kind of uniform. Unfortunately, although dressing in emo clothes is supposed to say something about how rebellious and individual you are, if you dress the same as others you do run the risk of looking like you are dressing to a pattern, therefore going against everything that emo clothes represent. A classic sign of emo clothes are the ill fitting garments. Everything to do with emo clothes are about rebellion, and therefore most of the items worn in emo clothes are ill fitting – too tight or too baggy. Emo clothes are usually worn in layers, with cardigans and v-neck jumpers stretched tightly over undershirts. The whole image with emo clothes is one of disarray, of taking the conventional and turning it upside down. Emo clothes are limited to an age group, that of the teenage rebellion. Sometimes adults do dress in emo clothes, but it is mostly limited to the teenagers who listen to a certain type of music and want to express themselves through dress. Because of this emo clothes do not have a loyal group who are committed. People wearing emo clothes are constantly changing; growing out of emo clothes and therefore it is a hard group to define – like many fashion groups.
