<b> is presentational. It says, "Make this bold." <em> and <strong> aren't presentational. They say "emphasize"/"strongly emphasize" this. They don't say HOW to emphasize/strongly emphasize it. They're just saying that this text is more important than surrounding text, so emphasize it. --- And how is that text emphasized? In most cases by changing the way it is presented to the reader. I know EM and STRONG don't require that it's presentation be changed which is probably where everyone thinks that the tags are then rendered non-presentational. I use use EM when I want italic and STRONG when I want bold, sometimes I'll change the font color as well, therefore I consider them presentational tags.
