I'm lost in a sea of words.
Everytime I wanna say something.
It comes out all wrong and messy.
Does the whole ass universe hate me or something.
I was once told that there are 3 paths down to high school.
One the smartass people will do great things.
Two there are the normal ass people who get decent grades.
Three there are people who are misunderstood.
You must be thinking the third one was the people who fail.
But i didn't wanna say that.
so i used the word misunderstood.
There isn't the fourth one they said.
But I guess I had to break the only 3 rules or paths on the paper didn't I?
So I made the 4th one thinking because why not to.
I think everyone believed high school movies were real.
For example High School Musical.
In fact , highschool is where we are first introduced to the basic existential question of life.
How is it possible to exist in a place that sucks so bad?
The food sucks.
The cheeseburgers feel like horse meat.
No joke.
The dress code sucks.
The guys get to wear flip flops and tank tops and shorts.
And if a girl is shown wearing ripped jeans we will get dress coded.
Or a shirt that shows a little bit of skin.
We're called "whores and asking for it".
And wearing baggy clothes were called "fat and ugly".
Which is not true.
And if something bad happens we are told to shut up or keep our mouth closed about it.
Or they will do something bad to us.
NO do not keep them shut.
SAY SOMETHING.
TELL SOMEONE.
ASK For hELP WHEN YOU NEED IT.
DO NOT BE SCARED.
THEY EAT OUR FEAR.
USE YOUR VOICE.
YOU CAN YELL IT OR SCREAM IT.
ANYTHING TO GET THEM TO HEAR YOU.
Us girls are being teached to keep our expression in our hearts.
It's the most sick thing you can do.
Teen girls are being teached this is love.
This isn't love.
Love isn't some sick joke.
Teen girls and teen boys should be able to express themselves with clothing.
No offense to the guys or anything.
But they should be really teaching the guys to keep it in their pants.
Have some control.
If we say no.
It's no, get that in your thick head.
Y'all should be asking what the problem is and how I can fix it.
Not make it bloody worse.
You are making girls so fucking scared.
They overthink all the time.
"Oh should i wear this"
"No i look to fat in it"
You are wreaking her.
Inside and out.
And you don't even know it.
She might stop eating because of the fat shame.
Lately I've been watching the news and oh boy there's a lot of problems.
Like how girls are getting harassed.
And sexaully harassed.
And how we were told to dress.
And if we put something on we get fat shamed.
And then if we are skinny then we get skinny shamed.
I've been harassed and sexaully harassed.
More than once.
Let me tell you something that is not fun.
It is not a game.
My long time friend was raped.
I was scared for him.
And I'm scared for so many people who might go through this.
And let me be clear.
WE ARE NOT YOUR TOYS.
We are our own person.
We are beautiful souls.
We are human, not a flipping TOY.
The problem isn't only the boys, it's the girls as well.
There should be a club where young teens could stop the dress code and maybe help people who might be going through something.
There's so much stuff we can do to help.
If you see someone getting harassed or sexaully harassed.
You should step in.
Tell them what they are doing is wrong.
That they are hurting her or him.
We were born with voices.
Now is the time to use them.
If you know someone going through this.
Tell someone.
Help them.
