I hate the labels! I get it every day! the most common one I get is Emo? M'kay? What is Emo? Isn't it a type of music? And what really makes me mad is they call My Chem Emo? People need to stop, it is new low to hurt someone by giving them a label. Can't I just be myself and wear what ever I want?

Darkromance:


I guess it matters how much you give a sh*t and/or where you live. If youre in a school or just a place where people aren't going to do escalate it into violence and be immature like that, Then it's child's play.

the point has been made before that it's not just child's play because the abuse isn't physical. people don't decide to be emotionally hurt by things. true, people can be dramatic but that doesn't make emotional abuse okay, nor child's play. because people can be severely affected by emotional abuse.
I wouldn't use the term "escalate" either, because emotional abuse can be more serious.

People will say they hate labels and then turn around and say something about Preps, Or Jocks. it is kind pointless when you say you hate Lables but then Lable another person because of the way they dress.

Labels are stupid. I was called Goth & Emo in high school because of the way I dressed. Now people don't label me anymore because they know they can't change me.

Reminder to thread - this thread is to discuss labels it is not to post what you get labelled as.

labels are as said, drastically overdone, that being said, hopefully they will have been such a trend that them, as other trends with just go out of style....one can hope.

Well, I believe that lots off people who get labels, give them out too.

Seriosuly, how many 'emos' or 'nerds' call others 'chavs' or 'preps', and vice versa?

Lots of people complain about it, but before you do, make sure you don't give them out, even in your head.

PS-I am not saying that all people do this, I am just saying some do. Please don't take it as a personal attack, it is not.
