Is anyone here Straightedge (logo: sXe)?

Not too sure what it is, click here for more informations.

Quote:
"make a commitment to refrain from using alcohol, tobacco, and recreational drugs. Some followers also abstain from caffeine and casual sex. " ...  "Some people in the straight edge movement embrace a vegetarian lifestyle and others abstain from animal products altogether, a practice known as veganism. These choices are not considered aspects of the movement but do share some common members."

Although it says many Vegetarians embrace it, I, for one, am not, but still pretty strict on the stereotype.

I've been on for around two years now.

It's a way of...making your body pure, not ruining it by drinking alcohol, drugs, smoking and even sex.

Although, I believe sex, to myself, is fine, but still. As I said, the rest is strict.

So I was wondering, is anyone here Straightedge? If not, would you like to become one? (ps. im not "advertising" xD. Just asking generally).

If you consider yourself Straightedge, and you dont smoke, drink, or take drugs, then yes. Then again, you can do those things and not consider yourself it.

So what's up with the X in sXe? Is it because the dumb little twats who like to align themselves with a lifestyle based in punk music think that the letter X is X-TREME?

Hmm, I'm guessing it's because of the "X-TREAME" bit [:

I'm only straightedge cause being "bad" is overrated and a little bit annoying, and I wanna keep my innocents for a little bit. Although I love meat.

I don't drink, do drugs, or smoke. I'm not intentionally straight edge, but I guess I am straight edge. I do have sex though. But I guess that doesn't matter.

Smoking is my number one turn off, and with all of the information out there about how expensive, unnatractive, and detrimental to your health it is, I don't know how anyone can try it these days. Must be peer pressure, that's the only reason I can think of.

Drinking is okay in my eyes, but it has no allure to me. Especially not drinking until you are stupidly drunk. I'm done highschool and I've never done that once. I don't want to be like all of the stupid girls I went to school with, drinking to bloatation and then using it as an excuse to say and do stupid things. Idiotic.

Drugs also have no allure for me, and i've never done drugs.

So yeah, I guess I am "straight edge."

I know a couple kids who are straight-edge. They kind have the whole 'superiority' thing going on. Like, they use it to rub in peoples faces.
