It's not I got a straight edge friend that comes to parties with all of us they make great designated drivers, and also most people don't realize that straight edge is more than just not doing drugs, drinking, smoking etc. But then again most kids who claim that tittle really aren't really straight edge considering the whole promiscuous sex thing went out the window quite a while ago.

No, it was just some people in my building, they don't drink and blaze cuz its "their personal choice" no too. I don't get it, are people really that ingrained in cultural values?

So they aren't straight edge they just choose to be sober, these are two very different things.

Not to me, where i come from a person that doesn't do drugs = straight edge. I know there is some underground group of people that call them selves "str8 edge" or something. Im not talking about that.

They have never tried any drug except for caffeine, thats way different than the occasional smoker/drinker.

so then they aren't straight edge at all. If your not apart of the hardcore/punk scene you aren't straight edge. People just miss use the term.

I'm not misusing any term, where i live straightedge = mormon sobriety. The term straight edge for sober people came before that underground culture.

What is wrong with that?
You may not want to live your life that way; I know I definitely dont, but that doesnt make my perspective any more valid than theirs.
I live my life they way I want to, and as long as someone isnt trying to prevent me from doing so, I cans respect the way in which they choose to live as well.
One of my best friends is a cop who rarely ever drinks, and has never done any kind of illegal drug. We are still able to have a good time together, because we respect each others perspective without trying to change each other.
He actually has my grow lights in storage at his apartment right now.

That may have been the origin of the word, but the meaning has changed. I hear it used pretty often to describe any number of things. The people I worked with at a porn shop when I was younger used to call me straight edge because I wore polo shirts, and didn't have any tattoos, or piercings.

Nah, I'm agreeing with you. I always thought that straight edge meant any person who didn't drink or do drugs.

And there is nothing wrong with people that stay mormon sober, but it just directly conflicts with my life style.
