Okay, wow. I'm really sick of all the people who are saying people that are sXe are pussies. Okay, no.
Being sXe means following the three X's: no drugs (X), no drinking (X), and no casual sex (X). Basically, being healthy. It's about respecting yourself and being strong enough not to need drugs and alcohol to make life fun. Some sXe people choose to be vegetarian, vegan, etc. but it's not necessary by any means. Others also choose to avoid drugs (medicines), although that kind of negates the whole "being healthy" thing.
Real sXe people will not condemn others for not being sXe. They also won't announce to everyone in the fucking world that they're sXe - it's a personal choice and it should remain private. Some people choose to show that they're sXe by having X's on their hands, and that's fine too. Just another personal choice.
Contrary to popular belief, it has nothing to do with religion, cursing or the scene. It may have originated in the punk scene, but it has spread out and away from it - not every sXe person is punk, emo, etc.
Please refrain from being ignorant and keep an open mind.
I'm sXe (straight edge) but I'm an Atheist, I swear and I'm not a fucking punk. What do you think about THAT?

One who has made a lifetime commitment to not smoke, drink, do drugs, or participate in promiscuous sex.
This does not mean no sex at all, it just means only sex when in a serious relationship - not random hook-ups.
Being straight edge has nothing to do with religion. Although someone who is religious can be straight edge - the two are not correlated.
One cannot call themselves straight edge unless they plan to obstain from these acts for life. If someone breaks one of these, he or she was never straight edge.
Those who are straight edge feel they do not need to smoke, drink, do drugs, or participate in casual sex to have a good time and enjoy life. People who are straight edge still go to parties, go see bands at shows, and most of what non-straight edge individuals do - they just don't poison their bodies in the process.
I'm 25 and have been straight edge for 8 years - I go to parties, still see my favorite bands, and have sex with my husband regularly. I never engage in acts that I regret since my mind is clear at all times. I don't cough up a lung going up the stairs since I don't smoke. Being straight edge has never stopped me from having a good time - and the best part is that I remember all of them!

The kind of people who choose not to do drugs or drink, but are too trendy to realize you don't need a label to describe everything you do.
I'm straight edge because I want to remember my life, because all drugs give you amnesia.

Where I grew up we used to use this term to refer to the style of beard/sideburns someone gets where the sideburns are trimmed into a thin line that may connect to a goatee/moustasche of the same thinness. I've never really heard anyone from anywhere else really call it that. It looks cool on people with a dark complexion, but I think it looks kind of white-trashy on white guys.
-similar to "edge up" but refers specifically to facial hair
Shit, man nice edge job!
-Yeah, it's tight, right?

When a television series intentionally edges fans by delaying the consummation of a highly popular ship for an inordinate length of time, usually spanning at least several seasons and making it almost painful for the ship's fans to watch those characters interact. Term originates from the popular ship destiel, which is comprised of the characters Dean Winchester and Castiel.
Supernatural has been desti-edging fans of the relationship between Dean Winchester and Castiel for over a decade.
