Ok, I'm not Goth or Emo, so what EXACTLY IS the difference(s) between the 2? PLZ ANSWER CAUSE I HAVE A GOTH FRIEND AND AN EMO FRIEND. AND I'M TOO CHICKEN 2 ASK THEM.
Honestly they're both just different styles/fads. Music associate with say emo is emotional lyrics with a rock feel, gothic music is more metal. Clothing and style wise emo is just black skinny jeans and a black band t-shirt, black hair with a long swept over fringe. Goth is more black with a dark purple or red, flowy long clothing, dark lipstick/eyeshadow (emo it's just thick black eyeliner). Goth is more of a classical interests, old books, old horror movies...emo is just an average teenager.
That's how it was say..7 years ago or so, it's changed a lot now and people just dress a way to fit in with others moreso than back then.
