sXe is short for
straight edge. This means that you dont smoke, do drugs, or drink. sXe is a lifetime commitment, not just until you're of age. It also often means that the person says not to
promiscuity and perverted forms of sex.

sXe isn't just a commitment,
it's a way of life, as well as a form of music related closely to
hXc (hardcore). since it's a personal decision to be straight edge, it shouldn't be looked down upon as being "fucking stupid" or "pussy" because a person chooses not to partake in certain things such as sex outside of a commited relationship, illegal drugs, etc.
Example:
travisXe:
hey kids, did you make it to the xbrutal fightx show last weekend?
jean: what makes you think i would be crazy enough to miss that? they're the best
sXe band EVER!!

Straight edge is a way of life free from drugs, alcohol, and promiscuous sex. It originated in the original hardcore and punk scene. When bands would play at all ages venues, minors were required to have X's put on the top of there hands, signifying that they were underage. When one band member,
Ian Mackaye from the band Minor Threat, decided he was going to where
the X's on his hands even though he wasn't underage but still free from drugs and alcohol, he built a community of people that were
drug free. Straight edge eventually evolved into keeping yourself clean, and not harming your body.
Example:
some people mark themselves in
tatoo's with the sxe signia,
because to
most it is a life long commitment
venues that still mark X's on minors hands in the
orange county area include, but not limited to: Hoques Barmichaels, The Galaxy, and the choachhouse

SxE is an abbreviation of straight-edge. Straight-edge is a lifestyle, in which a person will not drink, smoke, do drugs or have any kind of permiscious/perverted sex. Straight edge also breaks off into even smaller groups, vegans and vegetarians, Christians/religious groups, nazi/
hate edge,
gay edge.
Most straight edgers frown upon hate edge and
hardline.
Hardline is a more conservative type of straight edge, started in the late 80s by bands such as Youth of Today and Judge. Hardline is anti homosexuality, extreme veganism and Christian values.

Alright people, you are a bunch of retards! It does NOT mean sexy. It means that you have taken a personal
vow not to ever drink, do drugs, or smoke.
Get a clue will you?

No drugs
No alcohol
No
casual sex
Being straight edge is not something you decide to be one day; it takes time and thought.
Don't boast about it or put down others who don't follow such ways. The whole point of it is to respect oneself and others.
sXe is not a trend. It started before any of those stereotypical labels were even invented and it will be here when they all die out.

Short for Straight-edge. One of it's originators is Ian MacKaye of Minor Threat and Fugazi. This is the trend that's sweeping the nation slowly making it's way into the lives of most scene kids. Usually distinguised by the black "x" on their hands at hardcore shows. They commit to not taking drugs, drinking alcohol, having sex (until marriage) and for some also
going vegan. For the extreme edger no cursing either. I myself have noticed very few dedicated
edgers out there. Most claim straight-edge but don't live by it. They'll drink, smoke cigarettes, perform other sexual acts (ie oral) as long as its not intercourse.
Edgers in other words are fairly
hippocritical and think they're better than you because they lead "pure" lives. This leads to some violence to. Which you'd think would be no-no to somebody who thinks everything else is the devil.

pretty much a choice to live life without habit forming activities. The most common of these is no drinking, no drugs and no casual sex. Most sxe kids go to shows in groups together, and mark their hands with big black "X"s to represent they don't drink and volunteer to put
the X on their hand. They also
two-step and
hardcore dance, which is common especially at Straight Edge shows! I personally live by the straight edge lifestyle, and it probably saved my life.
Example:
emogirl-"like omg do you see those kids whatre they doing?"
sxeboy-"they're
stepping, duh."
emogirl-"rofl i should have seen
the X's on their hands XD
