Straight edge, sXe came out of the punk scene. Minor Threat wrote a song called Straight Edge, which entails no drinking, smoking or drugs. In another song called Out of Step, they elaborate and add on no permiscuous sex. Quite a few sXe and HC kids are Vegan and Vegetarian also, "poison free". The universal symbol for this musical movement is an X or XXX as well as XXX with two lines below it, as well as three sailing stars on the hand right by the thumb. Music, hardcore, HC plays a large role in straightedge, sXe. There is more to sXe, straight edge than not drinking, smoking, doing drugs or having permiscuous sex...it is about music! And some would argue that permiscuous sex shouldn't be included. Some kids have taken sXe further and are what is known as "Hardline."
