1. Any person who conforms to a fashion statement rather than an ideal or way of life. Most American universities, colleges and secondary schools keep a steady population of poseurs, usually in art classes and libraries. The poser is known to congregate in small groups, usually of their own ilk, or with real punkers or metalheads in an attempt to fit in. The telltale sign of a poseur is their lack of knowledge of music, art and the culture they are pretending to portray. As an example, the roots of the punk rock movement was based more on all out rebellion and an attitude going against the social status quo and morays. In contrast, the poseur holds none of these values, yet will pretend to.

"My advanced ceramics class is chock full of hipster poser fucks. All they do flip their scarves around and talk about going to shows and making out and doing their hair." "Did you see those two hardcore guys beat the snot out of that poser guy after the show?" "Yeah, they broke his nose and stole his scarf" "Serves him right for wearing a scarf in the summer"

Someone who tries to fit in to a section or label. Basically, they go overboard with what they wear and yet know nothing. (aka surfer posers, skater posers, emo posers ,etc.) they also think that what they where is what those type of people where as well

*insert poser example here*

Someone who pretends to be something they know they are not.

"i know this poser who thinks he is metal but he is really just a scene kid, his name is Matt Flores"

A poser is someone who pretends to be something they are not in order to look cool. Whether it be a techno poser, an emo poser, or even a lesbian poser, each one pretends to like that thing in order to be cool. Often, a poser will deny the fact that they are lying, and read/copy other people's shirts to prove it.

Showing off your noobie trance music, you poser? Guy1: Hey man, are you punk? Guy2: Yeah, yeah, man, I'm punk. Guy1: Oh yeah, man, what bands do you like? Guy2: Er.. Punk Band 1, Punk Band 2, Punk Band 3.... Guy1: Stop looking at our shirts.
