If he's EMO, he may show what we consider to be more of a feminine attitude/demeanor. Most of the people I know that call themselves that embrace both sides of themselves. The reason I say that is because a lot of the Goth's I know also consider themselves EMO, but not necessarily the opposite.

Pany - from Wiki: Emo, a genre of rock music and affiliated fashion styles and attitudes

That's not really an accurate definition. From what they've told me, it's also more of a sexual freedom from stereotypes, they don't go for the hetero, homo labels for instance, they are very in touch with all of their emotions

LadyT, sounds fascinating, very 60's. I think I may read up on them more. BTW, I didn't read the entire Wiki article, just the tagline in Google, to get a sense of it. The only EMO I've heard of is a comedian named Emo.

Urban Dictionary has a few different definitions of "emo", if it helps.

I would love to know what Kynt's and Vyxen's parents think of their new names cause you know their mamas didn't name them that at birth. Secondly, I think anyone over 19 who is still doing the Goth or "emo" thing needs to grow up now. We had an aquaintance that was doing the whole Goth thing and he was 35 and a mess. Couldn't keep a job, didn't really want to work because it interferred with his partying etc. I wonder if K and V work and do they dress and makeup that way for work. Now, having said all of that, I really enjoy watching them in the race.

There ARE jobs where they would fit right in.. certain bars, music stores, tattoo shops, alternate bookstores, hairdressers, makeup artists, body piercers, musicians. Personally I love the look!!

but really not many multi million dollar companies hire them. I agree with Sea that they could get those jobs but unless they were a top hairdresser/m-up artist or big time musician they really do limit the money they could make

I am liking Vyksin a lot for some reason. She seems to be a can-do gal and the brains (well, and maybe brawn too) of her team.
