Emo-ly Yours..

Tuesday Vargas' Wedding.

2010-07-11T06:53:00.000-07:00

She's a local celebrity here in the Philippines.. and When I first saw this video (of her wedding)... It was mixed emotions. It's very nice, and I could almost feel the love. I wish her all the luck, and hopefully, this wedding wouldnt be like the others, you know divorce and all that stuff. The vid has really nice songs, that I already have downloaded.. :D

I wish I would have mine, someday soon or something. hehe who knows?

Sigh. The feeling of love and being loved. :)) Such sweet sorrow. lol XD

Faithfully - Glee Version

2010-07-11T06:46:00.000-07:00

This song has been my last song syndrome for the past 6 weeks. I love the original version, but this one? The duet thingy is just so perfect for me. It makes the meaning of the song more visible. The glory of love, despite whatever. I am so inlove with this song. :)

They say that the road

ain't no place to start a family

Right down the line it's been you and me

And loving a music man

ain't always what it's supposed to be

Rachel Berry

Oh boy you stand by me

I'm forever yours faithfully

Circus life under the big top world

We all need the clowns to make us smile

ooooh through space and time (through space and time)

Always another show wondering where I am lost without you

And being a part ain't easy on this love affair

Two strangers learn to fall in love again

I get the joy of rediscovering you

Oh girl you stand by me

I'm forever yours faithfully

Ooooooh ooooooooh ooooooh faithfully

faithfully ... I'm still yours

Ooooooh ooooooooh .... I'm still yours

Ooooooh ooooooooh ..... I'm still yours

Faithfully

Artist : Glee Cast – Finn Hudson (Cory Monteith), Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) and New Directions

AM BACK!!!!!

2010-07-11T06:40:00.000-07:00

After 2 months of not writing, here I am again bugging you with whatever I could bug you about. Mmm, those times that I havent been writing, I was kinda busy with a lot of things. Love, money and social Issues, but then again, here I am again back with new beats. LOL. haha

I just dont know what to say, except that I want to say a lot of things but I really don't know what to say. Maybe I should start at what's buggin me.

This is something that my friend have told me. It's something Like the Alpha and the Omega, the beggining and the end.. Nothing lasts forever. Like relationships and couples marrying saying I do and till death do us part and stuffs like that has, or will end one way or another. It's kinda bothering me a lot.

My friend has been in a relationship for 4 years and 6 months, and all of a sudden they broke up. I don't really know what happened but it's very disturbing. Specially when you are so used to seing both of them together anywhere and everywhere and almost all of the gatherings there is. Seing them so broken and so hurt seems waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy too disturbing. Both of them are really good friends of mine. Sigh.

This I know, The only thing that's constant is change. Pretty much like technology.

The second thing that's been killing me is school. As much as I want to finish college right away, I am soooo bored of everything and anything that has to do with it. There are even times when I dont want to listen. (Except the subjects that I really like.) Maybe it's the teacher or maybe it's me, or I simply dont have enough motivation to keep going.

But when I try to stop, I remember my mom and dad and all the sacrifices that they are willing to take for me to get this freakin diploma, and then I get back on track. My diploma would not just be for me. It would be for myself and my parents, they are really the greatest and I dont want to disappoint them.

I miss a lot of things and I feel so deprived sometimes for reasons I cannot really tell. Sometimes i'm so in the mood to be a hopeless romantic being, and then another time I feel so inspired. I get mixed emotions most of the time.

I am super growing up (not height wise.) but in my mind. maturity is something that comes to you ready or not. It's something like responsibility. It comes, it's unstoppable.

I wish that I have a sibling that's responsible enough to be an older sibling. I hate the fact that I can't have one. Maybe that's why i'm so envious when other siblings are so bonded and they love each other. but then again, you can't have eveything. And I am so saying a lot of things.

Might as well start with my other posts :D

I Quit - Atozzio

2010-02-19T16:32:00.000-08:00

Ohw ohww
What should i take from this
Always an arguement
What should i make of this
We don't belong together
Even if we are meant to be
Then why this keep happening
The fights per week
And mostly this don't make no sense to me

We started out so strong
We promised we would last forever
Now i'm weak & i can't move on
And no signs of things are getting better

We keep going back & forth
And now this love's on life support
And i can't go through this no more
So i just wanna put in my two weeks notice

I quit
I quit
I quit
I quit
I quit
Put in my two weeks notice

I tried all that i could
Did everything in the book
But nothing seems to work (out with us)
It's kinda hard giving up
When i invested so much
But enough is enough (yeahh)

We started out so strong
With the promise we would last forever
Now i'm weak & i can't move on
And no signs of things are getting better
Find more lyrics at www.kovideo.net

We keep going back & forth
And now this love's on life support
And i can't go through this no more
So i just wanna put in my two weeks notice

I put in all the time
But it never payed off
So i don't wanna listen
And i sure don't wanna talk
I've had it up to here
So i'm gonna make it clear right now
I'm giving you my resignation

We keep going back & forth (back & forth)
And now this love's on life support (wooow, i don't think it's gonna make it)
And i can't go through this no more (i can't go through this no more)
Just wanna put in my two weeks notice (yeah yeah yeah)

We keep going back & forth (we keep babyy)
And now this love's on life support (ohh oh)
And i can't go through this no more (oehhh)
So i just wanna put in my two weeks notice

I quit
I quit
I quit
I quit
I quit
Put in my two weeks notice
I quit
I quit

Disappointed..

2010-01-20T19:36:00.000-08:00

There are times that you wanted to do something so much and you just dont have enough resources to do so.

There are also times that you need to do something, I mean really, really need to do something, you have the resources, you have the motivation but your laptop just wont agree with you.

I am so disappointed with myself as of the moment. I failed my boss and it's one of the things that sucks the most. I hate me. They have been so kind to me and one moment of laptop lousiness and it's all down. :(

I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo disappointed with myself.I know I could do better. SIGH.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Happy new year people! wwwwhoooohhhhoooooooooooooooo!!!

Stolen Phone

2009-06-16T08:03:00.000-07:00

Up until now I still can't get over the fact that my phone was stolen. I've had tons of memories in the mobile phone and I have been oh so mopy lately. I just can't get over the fact that the person I asked to open my bottle of gatorade was the one who has stolen it! That freak!

One thing I learned from this experience is that you shouldn't trust anyone when you don't know them. Especially in a public transportation! you should hold on to everything you own until such time that you are sure that it's safe! I really, really missed my phone :( The pictures, the memories, the price! ughhhhhhhhhhh!!

Find someone..

2009-06-01T02:49:00.000-07:00

Find someone who isn't afraid to admit that they miss you.
Someone who knows that you're not perfect,
but treats you as if you are.
Someone whose biggest fear is losing you.
One who gives their heart completely.
Someone who says i love you and means it.

Last but not the least...
Find someone you wouldn't mind waking up with you in the morning,
seing your wrinkles, and your gray hair,
but still falls in love with you all over again

Don't. . .

2009-06-01T02:43:00.000-07:00

Never identify myself with my ACTIONS.
I'm not what I do..
Having done bad things doesn't mean I'm a bad person..
I'm just someone who has made unwise decision :(

Fact:..

2009-06-01T02:31:00.000-07:00

Fact:

We gut hurt the moment we start to CARE
.. and they will only START to CARE when they realize we got
HURT.

The Ugly Truth :p

2009-05-30T10:10:00.000-07:00

Tell me what you think about the new poster!

What I Realized...

2009-01-11T06:43:00.000-08:00

After the break-up that I didn't anticipate lol, well who wants break ups anyway? huh? OK so here are the following things I've realized. I feel like blabbing today so I must write them all while I could, and I'll sleep after this.. Or maybe not. LOL

1) I am still a little Bitter.

2) MOST Men are polygamous by nature.

3) MOST Men, tends to womanize from time to time.

4) MOST Men could really, really be defensive when you ask them about something ESPECIALLY WHEN THE CASE IS ABOUT OTHER WOMEN. They'll tell you to trust them that they'll never break your heart.

5) MOST men wants their GF to "trust them" but just keeps doing things that makes their girl doubtful about them.

6) When women/girls gets hurt, all the defense mechanisms rises and she will do anything to forget and move on.

7) Most Men feel like "THEY ARE THE MAN" so they have to decide and control the relationship not minding that they are hurting their girlfriends. They just want to go with the flow and flaunt their super EGO.

8) Long Distance Relationships are the hardest kind of relationship to maintain.

9) Why can't other men just stick to one girl at a time?

10) Women gets possessive from time to time. BECAUSE most men doesn't value their girlfriends, when she finds out that he has another woman, the possessive bone gets activated.

11) Most men are not brave enough to tell their women how they love them. BECAUSE they are AFRAID that they might be rejected or something like that which is ridiculous in every angle!

12) When you caught your man saying I LOVE YOU to other WOMEN, and confront him about it he freaks out just when you have calmed down.

13) Since he has a plan B (the other woman) He suggest Break UP. And you, the woman who loves your man so much, will be in PANIC mode and you will BEG him to stay and think it over.

14) and then He tells you that IT'S OVER, still you will CONTINUE to BEG and then after that he will tell you that he will be thinking about it. And You, as a girl will grant him his wish that "HE NEEDS SPACE".

15) After giving him the space that he needs, and tells you that he needs to talk to you, he tells you that he doesn't want to be your man anymore because he can't take your "MISTRUST" But, the truth was: He's super prepared to let you go because you have uncovered his secret and is prepared to go on with plan b and he really doesn't want you anymore.

16) Why do men needs back up plans? it's not like women will be extinct or something?!

17) Stop looking around when love is already in front of you. Because just when you realize that she's important and you don't want to lose her, there she goes >>> moving on.

18) How come when it's a man's fault, a girl has to give way?

19) When most men are caught womanizing, they will defend themselves to death. Even if you ask him what really is the real reason behind (like let him tell you what's wrong with you) not sparing your feelings, He won't tell you the truth.

20) It sucks when you're being lied on BIG TIME.

21) PRETENSIONS SUCKS NEVER TELL SOMEONE YOU LOVE HER OR HIM WHEN YOU DON'T REALLY MEAN IT!

22) You want to be trusted? Please show that you are TRUST WORTHY!

23) BE HONEST ENOUGH to your boyfriend or girlfriend and tell him what you really, really feel.

24) DON'T KEEP SECRETS. You have to tell your boyfriend or girlfriend that you don't love/like her anymore when you don't.

25) TALK THINGS OVER.

26) Calm down. DON'T SUPER FREAK OUT. IT'S ANNOYING.

27) Accept it when someone says "SORRY".

28) You have to breathe.

29) When He or She tells you it's over. Just accept it. You can't do anything about it anyway, that is if you can't do anything about it.

30) When He or She asks for a chance, give at least 3.. See if it works, if it doesn't let go.

31) There he goes throwing everything away without caring how you would feel because ALL HE CARES IS: YOU'VE DONE SOMETHING WRONG BY INVADING HIS PRIVACY BY KNOWING THAT HE HAS ANOTHER WOMAN.

32) IF HE OR SHE OFFERS FRIENDSHIP AFTER THE RELATIONSHIP, ACCEPT IT. AT LEAST YOU'RE STILL FRIENDS LOL.

These are the things in my head as of the moment,I'll share the rest in the near future.. hehehe

Love lots!

gotta sleep.

An Open Letter to Jeroen

2009-01-11T06:41:00.000-08:00

Hey Jeroen,

How are you? How have you been? It's been quite a while since we broke up. 23 Days to be exact. I hope you are well. And I hope you're happy now. I wanted to tell you a lot of things but then all of them are useless already, you've let go of me and you've done it with grace.

Thank you. For the things you didn't deprive me and thank you for being my constant comfort when we were still "US". Thanks for the constant support and for the comforting words when I was very down. I really wanted to say a lot but then I don't know where to start. Really.

I wanted to tell you how hurt I was about your reply, I wanted to scream, I wanted to just shout at you until I can't shout no more. I wanted to tell you everything, but then you stopped me, and you won't even listen to a single word I was trying to tell you.

You judged me right away. I freaked out. You freaked out. Just when I was as calm as the calmest person alive. I didn't even hear you explanations. I can't even understand it. Honestly, none of it made sense. And all I could think of was how UNFAIR it is. How UNFAIR you're judgment was. You didn't even consider my side. That you were the one who decided to just throw it all away. As if nothing happened, You walked out happy. I was almost ruined, but not quite. I was shattered into a thousand pieces. You were as you were. As whole as ever.

I remembered you telling me about having to have back-up plans just in case "WE" don't work things out. For almost a year I thought that it was fine. That we were OK and that we were doing well in keeping this relationship work and keeping the "US" in place, neatly and in order. I thought everything just worked out fine. And I was setting aside my plans just so we could have this work more to the next level, and just be as close as we could be despite the distance.

I hoped that you weren't like other men. Because you seem so different. You have always fascinated me. I thought you respected me and treated me nice because you felt the same way I felt. But I was wrong, In a relationship, it never is an equal sharing. One gives a lot, while the other gives too little. I guess I was on the losing side. I gave a lot, lost a lot and gained nothing. Your plan A, plan B, Plan C was still up. That I didn't expect.

You gave me your password for Myspace and the rest of your accounts. You told me you don't mind me reading your letters. So what was the fuss all about? I just opened your Friendster account out of instinct. Thank God we are not friends in that networking site. Thank God for friendster. I've discovered things you were trying to hide from me. Plan B is already ready, It was laid in a silver platter. Ready to be unleashed the moment I make a mistake.

So here I am after everything, and and have let all the opportunities that passed pass. Broken and broke. Haha Sounds pretty bitter huh? I'm sorry. I can't help it. I was deeply hurt. But I think this helped me scream my unuttered rants haha. I know you're happy with her. I hope you don't hurt her the way you hurt me. Love her. Be with her. Respect her. Be honest.

It sucks big time when I found out you were telling her the same thing you were telling me. COPY AND PASTE. I bet the text messages were the same thing. haha. Be atleast original. And please for one be loyal. DONT FRIGGIN SAY I LOVE YOU WHEN YOU DON'T MEAN IT. IT JUST SUCKS WHEN I FOUND OUT. It is so annoying when you say I love you to me and say it to the rest of the world.

But since the past is the past. And I feel better now since a lot of days has passed. I think I have moved on. I hope you're happy and dancing with happiness that you got rid of me. PEACE. have fun. Party more. And I know you won't be able to read this because you might have deleted everything that is connected to me. But were still good friends right? ^_^

Cherrio,

Michelle

Happy New YEar Everyone!

2009-01-01T00:08:00.000-08:00

Another year has passed and a new one is here. TIME FRIGGIN FLIES SO FAST! I didn't even noticed that I was so consumed to blogging I rejected all the high paying companies (compared to blogging that is hehe) offers I've had :( so Sorry so sad. But at least I wasn't sick or anything.

Year 2008 gave me a lot of happy and painful memories. I've learned a lot of things and have let go of a lot of things that I was use to having. I've made mistakes and I've learned from those mistakes. But anyway, that's life. Now, I'm on Emo mode.. hahaha..

I miss being care free and being a kid. And growing old SUCKS BIG TIME! Responsibilities.. eeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww... hahaha. But anyway, I'll just have to deal with it. I hope this yer 2009 I'll be more responsible and act like an ADULT. (yuck).

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!! START IT RIGHT AND BE HAPPY!

All Around Me - FLYLEAF

2008-12-16T07:36:00.000-08:00

My hands are searching for you
My arms are outstretched towards you
I feel you on my fingertips
My tongue dances behind my lips for you

This fire rising through my being
Burning I'm not used to seeing you

I'm alive, I'm alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing

My hands float up above me
And you whisper you love me
And I begin to fade
Into our secret place

The music makes me sway
The angels singing say we are alone with you
I am alone and they are too with you

I'm alive, I'm alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing

And so I cry
The light is white
And I see you

I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing

Take my hand
I give it to you
Now you own me
All I am
You said you would never leave me
I believe you
I believe

I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healed

Young Blood Spills Tonight - Eyes Set To Kill

2008-12-14T07:16:00.000-08:00

Sip my blood till there's no blood left to spill
From my neck embraced by
A concealed grip I welcomed in my arms, in my arms, in my arms
Bruised by your love
Burned by your kiss
Is this true love?
Is this true love?
Bruised by your love
Burned by your kiss
Is this true love?
Is this true love?

Young blood spills tonight
This time the victim is you
Poison lips, the ones you kiss
I swear my love for you is true

Young blood spills

Now here I sing
My deadly lullaby
Bruised by your love
Burned by your kiss
Is this true love?
Is this true love?
Bruised by your love
Burned by your kiss
Is this true love?
Is this true love?

Now here I sing my deadly lullaby
Now here I sing to hypnotize your body
Now here I sing my deadly lullaby
Now here I sing to hypnotize your body

We bled that night till drained
You drank me dry I did the same
We bleed this night till drained
This cold

We bled that night till drained
You drank me dry I did the same
We bleed this night till drained
This cold, this cold night

Eyes Set To Kill - Beauty Through Broken Glass

2008-12-14T07:15:00.000-08:00

Glass hailed from the sky tonight
I couldn't hide to save my life.
Standing drenched from open wounds.
You took my hand, and pulled me through.

(Chorus)
I want to give you everything
Ill give you my all because you gave me
You gave me your lips
a gentle kiss
the medicine to cure my pain

listen to all this glass shatter.
i peirced my ears and made them bleed.
Now sounds so beautiful
Cause you're beatiful.
You're beautiful.

Chorus

Emo (pronounced /ˈiːmoʊ/) is a genre of music that originated from hardcore punk ^[1] and later adopted pop punk influences when it became mainstream in the US.

It has since come to describe several variations of music with common roots and associated fashion and stereotypes.

In the mid-1980s, the term emo described a subgenre of hardcore punk which stemmed from the Washington, D.C. music scene. In later years, the term emocore, short for "emotional hardcore", was also used to describe the emotional performances of bands in the Washington, D.C. scene and some of the offshoot regional scenes such as Rites of Spring, Embrace, One Last Wish, Beefeater, Gray Matter, Fire Party, and later, Moss Icon

In the mid-1990s, the term emo began to refer to the indie scene that followed the influences of Fugazi, which itself was an offshoot of the first wave of emo. Bands including Sunny Day Real Estate, Far and Texas Is the Reason had a more indie rock style of emo, more melodic and less chaotic. The so-called "indie emo" scene survived until the late 1990s, when many of the bands either disbanded or shifted to mainstream styles. As the remaining indie emo bands entered the mainstream, newer bands began to emulate the mainstream style.

Today popular bands like Fall Out Boy,^[2] My Chemical Romance,^[3] Panic at the Disco,^[4] and Paramore^[5] are described as emo despite playing a differing style of music from the previous emo bands.

First wave (1985-1994)

In 1985 in Washington, D.C., Ian MacKaye and Guy Picciotto, veterans of the DC hardcore music scene, took their music in a more personal direction with a far greater sense of experimentation, bringing forth MacKaye's Embrace and Picciotto's Rites of Spring. The style of music developed by Embrace and Rites of Spring soon became its own sound. As a result of the renewed spirit of experimentation and musical innovation that developed the new scene, the summer of 1985 soon came to be known in the scene as "Revolution Summer".^[6]

Where the term emo actually originated is uncertain, but members of Rites of Spring (band) mentioned in a 1985 interview in Flipside Magazine that some of their fans had started using the term to describe their music.

Within a short time, the D.C. emo sound began to influence other bands such as Moss Icon, Nation of Ulysses, Dag Nasty, Soulside, Shudder to Think, Fire Party, Marginal Man, and Gray Matter, many of which were released on MacKaye's Dischord Records.

At the same time, in the New York/New Jersey area, bands such as Native Nod, Policy of 3, Rye Coalition, and Quicksand^[7] were feeling the same impulse. Many of these bands were involved with the ABC No Rio club scene in New York, itself a response to the violence and stagnation in the scene and with the bands that played at CBGBs, the only other small venue for hardcore in New York at the time.

Following the disbanding of Embrace in 1986, MacKaye established the influential group Fugazi, and was soon joined by Picciotto. While Fugazi itself is not typically categorized as emo, the band's music is cited as an influence by popular second-wave bands such as Sunny Day Real Estate,^[8] Far,^[9] Braid,^[10] and Jimmy Eat World.^[11]

Second wave (1994–2000)

As Fugazi and the Dischord Records scene became increasingly popular in the indie underground of the early 1990s, new bands began to spring up.

Diary was released by Sunny Day Real Estate in 1994. The band performed on TV shows, including The Jon Stewart Show.

Inspired by Fugazi and Sunny Day Real Estate, Jimmy Eat World released the album Static Prevails in 1996 on Capitol Records.

A Cornerstone of the late-Nineties emo movement was Weezer's 1996 album Pinkerton, which was to be considered one of the defining emo records of the 90s and was said to have introduced emo to a larger and more mainstream audience.^[12]^[13]

In 1997, Deep Elm Records released the first installment in a series of compilations called Emo Diaries, featuring tracks from Jimmy Eat World, Samiam, and Jejune.

Mainstream emo (2000–present)

While Jimmy Eat World had played emocore-style music early in their career, by the time of the release of their 2001 album Bleed American, the band had downplayed its emo influences, releasing more pop-oriented singles such as "The Middle" and "Sweetness". Newer bands that sounded like Jimmy Eat World (and, in some cases, like the more melodic emo bands of the late 90s) were soon included in the genre.^[14]

2003 saw the success of Chris Carrabba, the former singer of emo band Further Seems Forever, and his project Dashboard Confessional. Carraba found himself part of the emerging "popular" emo scene. Carrabba's music featured lyrics founded in deep diary-like outpourings of emotion. While certainly emotional, the new "emo" had a far greater appeal amongst adolescents than its earlier incarnations.^[15]

At the same time, use of the term "emo" expanded beyond the musical genre, which added to the confusion surrounding the term. The word "emo" became associated with open displays of strong emotion. Common fashion styles and attitudes that were becoming idiomatic of fans of similar "emo" bands also began to be referred to as "emo." As a result, bands that were loosely associated with "emo" trends or simply demonstrated emotion began to be referred to as emo.^[16]

In a strange twist, screamo, a sub-genre of the new emo, has found greater popularity in recent years through bands such as Glassjaw.^[17]

The difficulty in defining "emo" as a genre may have started at the very beginning. In a 2003 interview by Mark Prindle, Guy Picciotto of Fugazi and Rites of Spring was asked how he felt about "being the creator of the emo genre." He responded:

I don't recognize that attribution. I've never recognized "emo" as a genre of music. I always thought it was the most retarded term ever. I know there is this generic commonplace that every band that gets labeled with that term hates it. They feel scandalized by it. But honestly, I just thought that all the bands I played in were punk rock bands. The reason I think it's so stupid is that—what, like the Bad Brains weren't emotional? What—they were robots or something? It just doesn't make any sense to me.

Fashion and stereotype

Long fringe (bangs) brushed to one side

Today emo is more commonly tied to fashion than to music,^[18] and 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.^[19]^[20]^[21] This fashion has at times been characterized as a fad.^[22]

Another example of hair characteristic of emo

In recent years the popular media has associated emo with a stereotype that includes being emotional, sensitive, shy, introverted, or angsty.^[23]^[24]^[25] It is also associated with depression, self-injury, and suicide.^[26]^[27]

Criticism

In 2008, Time Magazine reported that "anti-emo" groups attacked teenagers in Mexico City, Querétaro, and Tijuana.^[28]^[29] One of Mexico's foremost critics of emo was Kristoff, a music presenter on the popular TV channel Telehit.

Gerard Way, the lead singer of My Chemical Romance stated in an interview that "emo is a pile of shit", and that his band was never emo.^[30] Panic at the Disco also stated in an interview with NME: "emo is bullshit."^[31] These two bands, however, tend to be classified as emo.

Fans of emo are criticized for purported displays of emotion common in the scene. Complaints pointed to the histrionic manner in which the emotions were expressed.^[32]

In October 2003, a Punk Planet contributor leveled the charge that the current era of emo was sexist. Hopper argued that where bands such as Jawbox, Jawbreaker and Sunny Day Real Estate had characterized women in such a way that they were not "exclusively defined by their absence or lensed through romantic-specter",^[33] contemporary bands approached relationship issues by "damning the girl on the other side ... its woman-induced misery has gone from being descriptive to being prescriptive." Regarding the position of women listening to emo, the contributor went on to note that the music had become "just another forum where women were locked in a stasis of outside observation, observing ourselves through the eyes of others."

Critics of modern emo have argued that there is a tendency toward increasingly generic and homogenized style.^[34]

Emo music has been blamed for the suicide by hanging of Hannah Bond by both the coroner at the inquest into her death and her mother, Heather Bond, after it was claimed that emo music glamorized suicide and her apparent obsession with My Chemical Romance was said to be linked to her suicide. The inquest heard that she was part of an internet "emo" cult ^[35] and her Bebo page contained an image of an 'emo girl' with bloody wrists.^[36] It was also revealed that she had discussed "the glamour of hanging" online^[35] and had explained to her parents that her self harming was an "emo initiation ceremony".^[36] Heather Bond criticised emo fashion, saying: "There are 'emo' websites that show pink teddies hanging themselves." After the verdict was reported in NME, fans of emo music contacted the magazine to defend against accusations that it promotes self harm and suicide.^[37]

In Russia, a law has been presented at the Duma to regulate emo websites and forbid emo style at schools and government buildings, for fears of emo being a "dangerous teen trend" promoting anti-social behaviour, depression, social withdrawal and even suicide.
