Why can't women go out wearing what they want? Do what they want? Be who they want to be?
"Sorry, this is for skinny people"
"You're too busty"
"You should go out more"
"Don't date so many guys, you'll look like a slut"
"Why are your shorts so high? You look like a ho"
"Stop wearing such long skirts, wear more frilly short things, it will make you more desirable"
It seems like the only people who don't say these thing are the guys who date you, and even they will dump you if you won't have sex with them because that's how they were brought up.
Girls: don't have sex, you'll look bad
Boys: have all the sex, it makes you a man
These stereotypes are what make people want to hurt themselves, they make people want to stop hurting by killing themselves. Why can't we just accept the fact that maybe some girl wants to marry a girl? Oh this guy like that one? Okay sure I'll get the flowers. Nobody knows how each person feels in their soul, no one else knows the pain and the sadness you do. And even I'm failing, falling deeper and deeperJanuary 23, 2018
