Is it normal for me to still want to be "emo" even i am judged?

My parents hate the fact that i want to be "Emo." No I am not a poser and i know emo is a label. Anyways, they gave me enormous speeches about it being "evil!" They stalked my instagram and saw pics of me in warpaint! Is it normal for me to still want to be emo even though they disapprove?

    It's normal to want to look a way that makes you feel happy, yes.

    if your parents are not okay with it you can try to find someone who they can understand better and pray that they'll listen

    Stop with these labels. If you like the hair or fashion, get it, but don't go around saying you're emo like some of those 12 year olds out there.

    Emo? How is emo? From what I know emo is emotional people who enjoy cutting and crying to sad music and are sometimes gay. I think emo would mean suffering from depression not really evil.

    I went through this in middle school. My parents didn't like it either but I still did.

              Awful in what way? The lyrics, the music, the message? I kind of like it but I like techno type music. Or do you mean the fact children listen to this? I guess its just as bad as MSI though. http://youtu.be/ad6Kx6oCnjc http://youtu.be/ouCnSf2ffzY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxCPCteWZqw&feature=share&list=RDKHaTwwmPafE http://youtu.be/hHTikQ8U6tQ

            All the songs by this bad are very graphic and about sex. Oh here is another song called "well suck me". http://youtu.be/p8eLkFQXlKc

    • That's what I was thinking as well. It was a big thing back in like 2004-2008.

      it a thing like chunky kid in the led zeppelin shirt that sells weed in high school is. No one really likes it, but there always seems to be one around

      No, not really, but I still see people who dress that way.
