Goth. Now I wouldnt say this style is cool or summin, but they have stood the test of time man ! They been goths for ages. Emo came about when pretty boy rock bands starting waering all that collarshirt/tie/ripped stuff/metal stud/overly styled hair etc etc etc.. Really think about it ? aand Goths seems to be more clever, they can be down about the communist bastards that run the world, All youll hear an emo talking about is how nasty his dad/school is... bleeh
The cutting thing I've heard about both emos and goths, and I doubt either are fully true, or even partially.
Automutilation is simply a (sign of a) mental disease. While there are a very small amount of people who might feel they're more 'awesome' with more cuts on their arms... I'd say the previous statement applies to them as well.
With all that being said, both gothism and emoism (lol) attract people who are not quite standard. This might (can't say for sure) result in a higher amount of people with mental illnesses. Then again, this is just a brainwave, and I haven't checked if it's true at all.
id be emo...wait i am emo =p lolz , nothings wrong wit being emo seriously... its basically a style , and also a person who is emotional is called emo , people have this werid menatlity that all emos cut and their all gay... but ur wrong seriously... screw the steryo types...
Dear lord neither! Both groups are a bunch of sad little pussies, any way you look at it. Regardless they'll all grow up to work at Staple or Home Depot, or maybe be a cubicle jockey at HP.
