its just about controlling ya life they way u want it to be.
i dont have any probs with ppl drinking, smoking or drugs, i just chose not to do them. i chose to live my life with out drinking and stuff and the amount of money i hav saved by doin this has helped me modding ma car.. but to be honest Straight Edge is alot to do with the music scene rather thn not drinking and what not..
i'll prob get slated off sum ppl on here but i dont care cos i live my life the way i want and u live urs the way u do and i dont complain

It was born out of the "hardcore" punk scene - Minor Threat coined the phrase.

Its more to do with respect for yourself and other people.
There was also a large STD outbreak at the time - it was best not to sleep around to start with.

The main rules are No Drink, No Drugs, No Fucking around. All the things your parents warn you about. All the things that typical people of our age do.
I refrain from the above cause I personally feel at this moment in time its the best thing for me.
I don't drink cause I don't like the way I act when I'm drunk. I don't smoke cause it kills you, and I don't do drugs cause they've never appealed to me.
As far as sex is concerned, it doesn't mean you stay a virgin til you married. It means you wait til you're in a relationship til you do it. It means not thinking with your dick all the time
If this has come out like I'm putting anyone down, or I'm telling you all what to do, I apologise, I didn't mean that at all.
