actually its about monogamy, and the true old schoolers are about no sex. but damnit, im lutheran, so im finna have a partner
hardliners border on insanity from the whole no sex/ no masturbation thing. no pornography...etc... that theory just really goes against the way your body is supposed to work, there is a point where "living healthy" becomes unsafe...

i believe caffeine is a vice, it is a vice i have yet to conquer. drugs are drugs. i dont however drink soda because im tired, or coffee, i do it because it tastes good.

so is punk an influence for a lot of you sXe'ers
has a little to do with the clubs that serve alcohol, and the fact that little bars hosted punk bands back in the day, and little else.

I think sXe originates from the black X's that people put on their hands.
Straight "X" Edge = sXe.
you would be correct. the x indicated that this person was under age and could not be served alcohol. when sXe came about people started voluntarily putting the x on their hand, and ive seen a few of my friends get tatooed. (to those thinking this is a good idea, ive seen a couple of them with cigs in their mouth...talk about a good way to get your ass kicked)

I know. but maybe just leave it as an X? or just say straightedge...
I'm just saying the thing is stupid. lazy punks always gotta be throwin out acronyms.
its about the history, thats why its sXe. do a little reading

sXe = short, specific, recognizable
get over it.
the history...
i like this site, it clears up a lot of misconceptions fairly quickly:

anyway, the whole point of sXe boils down to one thing: keep your mind clear for life. drugs and booze are crutches, and if your life is about fawking all kinda hoes than that becomes a distraction too.
