one whose chooses to live away from drugs, alcohol, and violence.
NOTE: a true straightedge person is hard to find. many people call them this for the image while they do all the things they claim not to do. beware the fakes as they usually travel in packs and are no better than any other group of stupid people. often using weapons in fist fights and ect....

No drinking,smoking,drugs,or casual sex-the clean,"pure" way of life.Straightedge are super arsed cool people who actually have pride in themselves,want to be decent people,and don't believe in going around and looking like a bunch of drunk,high,stupid,slutty morons-aka most of America's youth nowadays-just because they can.Not all straightedge people think that they're better than everyone else and not all of them try to force their views on others,so if you think that's how it is then just get over yourself already.I'm not saying that this is the best or only way to be,but everyone at least has the right to be whatever and whoever they want,so just accept it already or move along.Bascially stop hating on the straightedge for living how they want and they won't hate on you.*
Straightedge and non straightedge should be free to live how they wanna live.

Straightedge was an accidental movement sparked by the hardcore punk band minor threat in the 80's. The movement came from the song "straightedge", which of course should be self explanatory. Of course, it has changed immensely over the years.
Straightedge is considered the basic building blocks for self purification by many people who have claimed straightedge themselves. Vegans for the most part could even consider straightedge as their prime reason for opening their eyes to such horrors observed in human/non human animal relationships. The band earth crisis(a vegan straight edge band from Syracuse, NY) wrote a song called "the discipline". In that song they go on to say "straightedge, the discipline, the key to self liberation". This song soon became an anthem for anyone who wasn't a complete fucking waste of life, and those who decided to reach for enlightenment.
A lot of people in the hardcore scene claim that straightedge has saved their lives, meanwhile a large percentage of edge kids are doing it for fashion or to follow a trend. The most militant of the straightedge movement are said to have shit family lives, thus despising everything associated with getting fucked up. We've seen shit as young kids that most people don't see. The true edge kids/hardcore kids alike turn to hardcore for a way out.
awesome guy-"yo were getting wasted later, im gunna take advantage of michelle. she used to love me."
bystander-"walks over, and crack awesome guy in the jaw."
"hey, trying to get high nigggaaa?"
"no dude, I claimed straightedge the other day. I'm fucking done with all this shit."
"IM FUCKING TRIPPIN BAWWLZ MAAYNE, I WISH I WUZ STRAIGHTEDGE!"
"hey I kinda like you, but I was scared to talk to you =("
"well duh, you arent even fucking straightedge."
"yo I'm all x'd up, I'm totally ready for this straightedge, beatdown, hardcore, rock-n-roll concert."
"see that bro with the x tat on his face? yeah well I heard he broke edge...thats sick."

A life choice made by those who's ego is the most defining characteristic they have. This ego is then justifed by, the belief that they are some how better than everyone else. These people are usually virgins with no friends, and like sheep, herd together to help boost each others egos. Straightedge, is a definition of a person who can't make a positive choice without fitting perfectly into a prearranged demographic. These people choose abstinence as a means to self justify. Meanwhile, their constant battle against temptation, coupled with their giant egos, causes them to become depressed, which they act out, (again with the support of the herd) in violence, and judgement of others.
These people don't understand that true positive choice goes much deeper than a tattoo and doesn't make u better or worse than anyone, or that we all have our own choices to make. and our own consequences .
"hey who's that guy with the tattoo on his face that was crying in the corner, and is now punching on with a random that was walking past?"
oh thats 'John'... he's straightedge

Abbreviation: SxE
Staightedge people are usually scene/emo but not necessarily. Staightedge basically means that someone refrains from drugs/alcohol, smoking and illicit sex. Most straightedge kids refrain from all three, but it can be any combonation. Many sxe people are also vegatarians or vegans and some are religous.
HardxcoreKid: Hey I heard you were pretty hardcore. You wanna go get crunk ?
SceneKid.SxE: Nah, I'm straightedge.

Someone who thinks they're better than everyone because they don't drink/smoke/do drugs/have random sex. Usually people say they're straightedge but still do one or all of the latter mentioned.
"I don't drink, I'm straightedge... yea I know you didn't offer I have to tell everyone though."
