An emo is a label. Like a chav, goth, grunge, indie, prep etc. An emo usually wears skinny black jeans, they might their hair in a side parting, with a fringe covering one eye. They wear the colours clack and red mostly. They like music like Panic! At The Disco, and Fall Out Boy. They are stereotyped as depressive people who cut themselves and are usually bisexual, but this is rarely the case. They express their emotions, hense the name. Sometimes they are also referred to as "Scene". Usually seen as depressed and lame. But as many stereotypes i have found this one to be false. But basically, its just a label.

"emo" means to be very emotional about things. The littlest things can get a emo person very upset

emo is a type of music. and some people lable themselves as "emo" because they think they are cool. i guess you could describe it as a person, but know what you're talking about first. just because you are an emotional person, does not make you emo. there's music, the way you dress, and other things that play along into it. and NO, new found glory, good charlotte, and simple plan are NOT emo. they are pop/punk. don't get them confused.

I think emo is short for "emotional"
Emo is a broad title that covers a lot of different styles of emotionally-charged punk rock. Its close to screamo sometimes.
read this page, it explains the different styles.

Emo means emotional. Like, any really emotional music is emo. A guy singing about his girlfriend or something like that would be emo.
