I've seen a lot of emo(tional) people not only in the other countries but also here in the Philippines. They are the one who loves to wear full black, cover their faces with their long bangs, etc...etc. For me, it annoys me whenever I saw emo people...especially here in Philippines. i'm referring to their fashion. It's really awkward to see emotional people when their bangs cover their face. I can't even recognize their faces because of their bangs. Err.. Anyways, what can you say about them?

fashion is a person's prerogative. each of us is entitled to our own fashion sense. i don't quite get what you mean with emo fashion but i think everyone of us has a certain comfort zone that we could immerse in, fashion included. there are certain trend that people follow that i think is just ridiculous but on second thought who is really the best judge of fashion? i think, it is the invidual. whatever makes us comfortable and happy. that's fashion.

I am okay with Emo fashion, just as long as people do not have the Emo attitude to go along with the Emo fashion.

I think that this kind of behavior is an immerging sub-culture which is becoming of great popularity among ppl in the world... From what I see, such behavior trends are mainly adopted from western cultures and metal music genre representations... It's perfectly fine to live one's life according one's own preferences, but those who go overboard with them, I'm referring to those who had went to extreme measures of self harm just to seek attention and envy of others, should be taken into task... These people who indulge in such extreme forms of Emo culture, can be a danger to themselves and ultimately others... Thus, the respective authorities should take close watch of these ppl.

Emo is also often associated with a certain fashion. The term "emo" is sometimes stereotyped with tight jeans on males and females alike, long fringe (bangs) brushed to one side of the face or over one or both eyes, dyed black, straight hair, tight t-shirts (sometimes short sleeved) which often bear the names of emo bands (or other designer shirts), studded belts, belt buckles, canvas sneakers or skate shoes or other black shoes (often old and beaten up) and thick, black horn-rimmed glasses Emo fashion has changed with time. Early trends included straight, unparted hair, tightly fitting sweaters, button-down shirts, and work jackets. This fashion has at times been characterized as a fad. If these people can pull it off with aplomb, then they can wear whatever they like. If they come off as just faddish, then that's their problem not mine.
