"Why do you hate sports at school? It's like the playground. It's so cool."
Oh because being the last one chosen for teams all the time is cool?
Seeing your friends complaining when you're on their team is cool?
Being yelled at because I made a mistake is cool?
No one passing me the ball is cool?
Being judged when I run is cool?
And in the locker rooms. Always having to go to the bathroom to change because I hate my body and have self-harm scars, is that okay?
Still having to keep my sweater on even in summer, is that good?
Seeing your classmates chatting with each other and laughing without you is cool?
So no, it's not cool for me. It's awful. Makes me want to die or break my leg.
Anyway, I'm used to it.

Just so you know, this happened to me more in elementary school when I was 10, 11, and 12 years old, even if I still receive some of these same remarks.
Sorry, I know it's late but I really wanted to write.
