Emo is not defined as a look, rather a liking to a particular genre of music. Usually this is expressed in the look, not the other way around. So get your classifications straight, ok?

Emo is short for emotional, and at first the word "emo" didn't have anything to do with music at all..

"Emo (pronounced /ˈiːmoʊ/) is a genre of music that originated from hardcore punk and later adopted pop punk influences when it became mainstream in the United States.
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. hardcore 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. "Revolution Summer" movement 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."
Dont even try to lecture me on emo mate. How about you do a bit of research before you make such a bold statement, your highlighting your own ignorance.
