A state of mind in which the person usually feels hopeless and alone. It is not a fashion statement, although many 'emo' people tend to dress in skinny jeans, black hair, etc. because they know it will differntiate themselves from those 'abercrombie-wearing'kids, so that they will likely never have to deal with them. A common myth is that most emos cut themselves. This is a stereo-type. Self mutilation is caused by depression. One does not have to be emo to cut, but one who cuts is likely to choose to dress 'emo', to express themselves. The 'emo' genre of music is generallytypes of rock, such as screamo, punk, etc. examples: Children Of Bodom, Senses Fail, The Rocket Summer, etc.
