It always means
NO
smokes drinks drugs or promiscious sex.
Sometimes it means not consuming meat and caffiene, it varies.
It's about strength as a person.
Usually kids take it too far and can be real asshats about it.
Most edge kids break edge/sell out by the end of their teens.
hatexedgers act like jerks to non-edgers because they are insecure about themselves and think labels like vegan and straight edge make them a better person.

A philosophy originated in the early 80's in the US punk rock community which defines a punk who does not use drugs (either legal or illegal). The name came from a song from the band Minor Threat that briefly described what was understood as the straight edge way of life. In the early 90's "straight edge" started to be viewed as vegetarian, contrary to promiscuous sex and even religious which is not true despite the attitude of certain groups inside the community who can be held responsible for such image.
A:I am a straight edge / I am a straight edger
B:What does that say about you?
A: It means I am a member of the punk rock community who does not use drugs and choose to define myself as a straight edge
B: Is it true that you guys are all vegetarian, avoid promiscuous sex andhave connections with christian and hindu religions?
A: I think most straight edgers are either vegan or vegetarian but I have not met many who would avoid sex for moral reasons and many of us are atheists.

The term Straight Edge originates from Emoy little fucks who stay home at night and cut themselves (with a straight edge) while their friends are out partying hard. Straight edge "parties" commonly have such entertaining games as pin the tail on the donkey, and who can stay up the longest without succumbing to boredom induced exhaustion; a step up from being a Mormon, but still a mass of displaced losers in society, adhering to another pointless fad. Straight edges rarely go to non-straight edge parties, because they woe to know what they're missing out on.
