Emo is, in reality, a subgenre of 80s hardcore punk, created by bands like Fugazi, Rites of Spring and Embrace. Later, in the early 90s, it was furthered by bands such as Sunny Day Real Estate and Jawbreaker.

Emos are emotional, not humans who cut themselves. Emos can be emotionally depressed, emotionally disturbed, or just emotional about things.
"I cut myself, so I must be emo!", "No, emos don't cut themselves, that's what a cutter does! I am emotional about... stuff, so I am emo, not you.".
