You guys don't have to read this if you don't want to. This is just somethings that kinda bother me and I'm not trying to insult anyone with anything that I say and I'm not pinpointing anyone out on this. I'm writing this regarding to me and my life and not anyone else's. This is not me pointing out and insulting any race, religion, sexuality, gender, person, or anything. This is my feelings on somethings and I don't want anyone getting offended. So if you are easily offended you should probably not read or comment anything on this.


When did we start living in a world where the only thing that mattered was your height and your weight and if you had thigh gap or not? And when personality meant nothing anymore and women were not treated equally
.

Since when was being single a bad thing and it was wrong to not have your first kiss by the time you were in high school? And if you're still a virgin in your senior year you're "uncool" and considered "weird" and will always be alone. And if you're not a virgin you're considered a "slut" and a "whore" and will grow up to be a prostitute.

Why do we live in a society where I as a christian I can't bring up my religion without offending people because some other guy who was also a christian put a bad taste in other people's mouths? But any other religion is okay to talk about and everyone thinks it's fine for them to express themselves.

Why is it that we have to keep in our emotions because if anyone saw a single tear roll down our cheek we would get laughed at and if we are angry we get looked at like a monster? And we have to put fake smiles on our faces because if we don't people will see the real us and then they will run away.

How is it that even if I never say a word about anyone else's sexuality but I'm straight I get looked at like a cruel human-being because I don't like other women? And if I'm single people think I'm a lesbian because they don't see me making out with guys in the school halls.

I don't understand why I have to watch every word that comes out of my mouth because everything I say offends someone in some type of way. And if I say one wrong word people have to correct me like I'm a child.

Since when was I racist because I'm white and other white people don't know how to accept others? Why is it that even though most of my closest friends are of a different race I'm looked at as someone who only hangs out with other whites? And how come I can't go spend time with my friends that are black without people looking at me like I'm insane?

And how come I have to constantly worry about the fact that just because some of my friends are immigrants it might come to the day that I will never get to see them again because some man wants to "make America great again" and send them back to their original countries? And all because he is racist and doesn't like anyone who isn't white. But the only people that actually see this is problem are that people that are too young to vote.

Why is it that every time I go into a public restroom I'll have the constant fear of getting raped because there is now a law saying that any man who says he's a woman can go into any bathroom he pleases? But anyone can lie, and people don't think about women's feelings and their fears.

How is it that just because I am a female I am not treated with the equal amount of respect and rights as men? Even tho women's rights was passed many years ago. Why is it that my future daughter will have to struggle with that same sexist feelings that I have to because men think that they are better and stronger?

Why is it that I am criticized because I am me? And because I like me. And I don't want to change. Why can't we live in a world where everyone can be equal and treated with respect no matter their race, sexuality, religion, size, shape, gender, and age?
