Ok nikki, have you met, most of the 'straight-edge' people in the world? No you have not. So dont use minority examples for the majority. Thanks

a^ ah ok.. i researched this group last year or so; as the post "Straightedge" would indicate, but I'd like to know.. What is the difference between a straight edge person and a vegetarian who does not do drugs, smoke or take alcohol> I mean several people have adopted that kind of life style; be it for religious reasons, personal or otherwise. Moreover, why do some people in the straight edge movement think they are better than others? and to my friend above I believe she wasn't addressing all of them

Vybz 'straight-edge' is like a lot of things - just a popular buzzword that has ended up having differing meanings.

I've never understood why underage people can say they are straightedge since according to law or whatever they shouldn't be drinking etc anyway even though people do and it would be hypocritical of me to say they shouldn't drink etc underage... But yeah I don't understand it, just my opinion though.

thx Matt @nikki- well that would just depend on the individual and now strong he or she is. But i see where you are coming from. Yet I kinda agree with what Bex is saying lol. Cause then we'd have a lot of straight edge babies xD.

this site perfectly answers my question lol - not connected to dietary or religious beliefs xD What is Straight Edge? The short answer is that it is a subculture centered around hardcore music. People who are straight edge do not smoke, do drugs or consume alcohol. There are no dietary or religious beliefs tied to straight edge contrary to media coverage. The long answer requires a bit of a history lesson. the site http://www.straightedge.com/whatissxe.html
