CheshireKat answered Thursday June 8 2006, 2:20 pm:
it's an abbreviation of sorts that stands for "straight edge", a lifestyle and (counter cultural) subculture, closely associated with punk, hardcore punk, and heavy metal music. it advocates total, lifelong abstinence from tobacco, alcohol, and recreational drug use, especially psychoactive and stimulant drug use. some straight edgers also abstain from promiscuous sexual behaviour.

basically, it's a counter-culture lifestyle that involves not making many of the bad decisions that seem to have become prevalent, and even tolerated, in the world today. some people think that it doesn't make sense that such a lifestyle could be associated with things like punk and heavy metal music; i am of the opinion that sXe is a noble and sensible thing, especially when one's taste in music has become an "indicator" that one is the stereotypical rebellious druggie troublemaking young adult. the straight edge is a great endeavour for the presentday youth and anyone else who does it.

thanks for the question!
