When I  started becoming aware of emo as a musical genre in the late 90s, it 
was  mostly bands like Braid, The Promise Ring, Dashboard Confessional, Saves 
the  Day and whatnot that I was hearing about. Mostly clean-cut, very handsome 
 looking young men singing songs of love-lost whilst jacking off in front of 
a  full-length mirror. At some point, most of these bands really came to terms 
 with the fact that there was no difference between them and the likes of Bon 
 Jovi, which explains why the eyeliner started coming into play. That started 
 the snowball-effect of emo and goth coalescing into one big melting 
chocolate  cake (or that's what most of these gaylords look like to me anyways). It's  
definitely a weird evolution. When I was a lad, there wasn't much difference  
between an emo-kid and an indie-rock type kid as far as fashion went. Just  
some dude in tight, thrift-store clothes, Buddy Holly glasses and a fuckin  
back-pack. That was emo.

And it SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKED too.
