why do you think emos are ad and ppl who should not be related to them? Let's imagine a teenager who cuts, maybe joining emo group makes it better for him/her, makes it easier in a way? You don't have to explain things about scars, you're emo and you might find ppl who will understand you ad your cutting. Maybe it's not that if you're emo, you cut, maybe it's the other way around, if you cut, you might want to become emo.
