    At least Goths do more than stare at the wall and blog about cutting themselves with paper clips to Avril levine songs

      Lol, I accidentally agreed. But, in any case, a lot of people can be without having to post it everywhere. A lot of people don't like to share their problems.

      [Type X people] are [characteristic Y] and do [activity Z], which is why "I" am superior to [type X people].

    Why would you assuming the "emo" choice doesn't apply dressing emo, but the "gothic" choice does? Like you said you can be emo and not dress that way, gothic is a state of mind, not a dress code. Besides they dress so similarly regardless, one just has more options, while the other is constantly whiny.

    emo means emotional, and doesnt mean you dress a certain way or cut yourself. gothic is a style of dressing, and i do not wanna look like that. plus even the emos that dress emo, the guys are pretty dang hot.

      Emo doesn't mean "emotional" An emo kid is one who listens to emo-core music. The most common of emo-core happens to be screamo. And yes they do dress a certain way.

      Okay, 'emo-core' means 'emotional hardcore', so the 'emo' in there is short for 'emotional'. However, the cultural moniker 'emo' does not refer to any 'emotional' person, but specifically to a cultural movement which originated from people who listened to 'emo-core'.

      there is no such genre of music called 'emo-core' we prefer rock music and screamo is a technique not a genre.

    Goths don't hate life and aren't depressed and they play a major part in history they had their own language and art and were pagan which is an all right religion besides the sacrifising people and such so yeah

    i have actually just lost all faith in humanity, firstly it's not just "emos" that self harm, i know many people from all stupid stereotypes that self harm or have self harmed. Secondly, who cares what people dress like? It's their decision not yours and you should like them for who they are not for what they wear.

    the difference between goth and emo is. goths are more angry. emos tend to be sad. goths do not cut themselves although to be emo you don't have to cut yourself. goths tend to where leather have very long hair. where emo's have a bit shorter hare and don't tend to try to look scary.

    This is a terrible question because 90% of people do not even know the true definition of either one. They all talk out of their ass believing all the stereo types they have been told or shown because of people not caring to actually learn who they are.

    they both dress relatively the same, goth is more punk, emo is more scene. really it's all the same kind of counterculture it's funny really i have a long mohawk i spike up when i got out, i get called punk, when i leave my mohawk down to one side i get called "emo with the undercut"
