To the OP.
You are 1300. You do not understand what aggressive or "passive" (not defensive) really is based on your comments.
The Sicilian Defense is not aggressive at all if you even remotely understand it! The Sicilian Defense requires nerves of steal and VERY strong defensive skills. If you were to look at GM games in say, the Najdorf Variation, almost all quick attacks go in favor of White. All the sacrifices are in White's possession. Black has to sit there and withstand a major assault for 30 or 40 moves until he can fend off the attack.
So why do so many players play the Najdorf?
Simple! If Black is able to reach an endgame, he is almost always better, and is usually then playing for 2 results: 0-1 and 1/2-1/2. The problem is getting there!
I would recommend understanding middlegame ideas and what attack and defense really is. Just because one opening has more tactical ideas to it or results in fewer draws does not make it more aggressive.
I laugh every time I see people call the Sicilian Defense aggressive just like I do when I see people call the French passive (not this OP, but many do on here) just because of the bad Bishop.
i have been trying lots of different opening for black, and it seem that lots of popular opening doesn't really work for me. Sicilian and French defense feel too aggressive and caro kann is too awkward and too close. i do often play sicilian but not very good at it. The problem is e5 is pretty inconsistent since i don't really know many line and variation. opening i prefers are Modern defence, sicilian defense: old sicilian variation, four knight game, and semi-slav or slav depend on situation. is there any solid opening for black that give decent amount of space advantage and good position and not too aggressive nor too defensive?
