Screamo is a specific subgenre of music that spawned in the 1990s, Real screamo is actually pretty badass from what I've heard, but that's not what my point here is. The definition of screamo is not "a band that has screaming in their songs" or metal in general. Many people, when they hear that someone likes metal, makes fun of the person and says the person loves screamo. They have to keep pushing that screamo is the worst thing since stepping on Legos. That person is in fact wrong. Post-hardcore, metalcore, thrash metal, death metal, and hundreds more of subgenres have screaming. If you're gonna insult someone, at least try to do your homework before you embarrass yourself.
