I was scolded by my teacher who sent me to the principal where she gave me a detention. I asked why "emo" was so bad and she just said "it's whatever someone thinks of it as". What really is wrong with the term "emo".

maybe she took it as a personal insult and that is why she started crying. sometimes you just need to keep your thoughts to yourself

she is probably just an emotional little puss...
i guess you could call me emo and i would be like, "yup"

actually thats happened to me a lot lately for sticking needles in my arm at school

Its not in the dictionary

I guess that answered your question.
