10 years ago this guy would've just been called emo, or hipster.

Emo is a music genre Emotive Hardcore, so he'd just be a hipster lol.

people hanging around the music often got called by the names of the music genres - it was punk, goth, then emo, to describe the more artistic/ costumey fashions...

These days, you don't need the music first to create a community bc you can meet online. Back then meeting at concerts, clubs or record stores was the hub of social life, so the only place to show off your fashions was going out to a show.

That's true, but I don't think anyone can be a music genre imo lol. Even people that like Goth rock and Emotive Hardcore say it's about the music.

Right, and nowadays people say it's about their gender identity. The point is, people find ways to express various desires to be different, and it can shift with cultural trends. If you look at the big picture, somehow there are less people with a fundamental need to focus on music and more people with a serious gender crisis 20 years later, but otherwise they're behaving just the same.

Maybe they just think it's about the music - or the gender.

You're correct: for them it's about the gender (now days)
