Unfairrr unfairr unfairrr unfairrrrr. Not fairrrrr. 44136 - |
I dont even want to further discuss it. It really felt like I have something to say which may worsen my state 44136 - |
. 58831 - |
somebody here? 58831 - |
..... 58831 - |
>.< 58831 - |
hey 58833 - |
hello? 58832 - |
alr nobody here 58832 - |
Honestly it's a blessing that in some ways my mom really doesn't follow gender roles like she doesn't cook, shave, or wear make-up much...I see a lot of girls feeling pressured to do that or say they 57664 - |
Were pushed by their own family to do those things but I never really thought of it at all...of course cooking is a life skill and something I want to learn but I'm not going to cook and clean for 57664 - |
Everyone else...like you got to do your own part! I also am not very attracted to men so I wouldn't fall over myself doing all that just for them either 57664 - |
Anyways this was inspired by a girl I know who posts regularly about wishing she didn't have to shave or wear make-up but her mom complains to her about it and I know they live together but sometimes 57664 - |
I wish I could tell her to...just not do it? I know it's not that easy especially with familial pressure but honestly it shouldn't cause that much angst! Just don't do it and be free, it really 57664 - |
oh hey' 58832 - |
hello 58832 - |
Doesn't take much thought! I have hairy arms and legs and I've never shaved in my life and never will...I proudly bear my hairy armpits too because really who cares? 57664 - |
Oops I think it's actually bare 57664 - |
i dont care enough abt myself to do those sorts of things so i dont rlly care 58832 - |
It's not about caring enough about yourself but of others' opinions 57664 - |
I know some women don't like the feeling of hair on their skin (which is a little funny to me or whatever), but I'm willing to bet that a lot of them are socialized into thinking they must shave 57664 - |
hey 58834 - |
Why do people do the things they do or want the things they want? How much of it is really their choice? We're all influenced by others but why not examine that further? 57664 - |
Yes purple? 57664 - |
anyone there? 58834 - |
f 18 wby? 58834 - |
F 23 57664 - |
i remember at the strt of the year my freind wispered to her freind '' oh i think he does self harm'' and i was like in my mind daym i gotta go get my jacket BUT THEN I CANT FIND IT and i stressed out 58832 - |
I know it's that easy but every time I see other women complaining about toxic beauty standards I always think, girls stop caring and following them, why worry about this when you could just...not? 57664 - |
*not 57664 - |
and then today we were signing eachothers graduation bears i was signng a girls bear "she used to be a furry not anymore and i dont rlly care abt that but she had drawn what look like scars and i was 58832 - |
like daym shit she does sh!? 58832 - |
Well it's true that women face societal or familial pressures and consequences but I personally stopped caring about that years ago...I know it's not easy though 57664 - |
and now im freaking out bcuz i dont want her to go through the same shit i did 58832 - |
Well whatever...my point is not that I'm #notlikeothergirls but that I want my fellow women to liberate themselves over beauty standards that don't really matter and hold no weight 57664 - |
Once you abandon them, you will realize how silly and flimsy they really are 57664 - |
Anyways rant over, I do understand sometime people like expressing them with make-up or shave because they don't like the feeling of hair but please examine your behaviors to see their true motivation 57664 - |
onestly since im not a woman we dont rlly have beauty standards but also im always thinking "i kinda might wanna be trans" but knowing everyone with homophobic shit and stuff i know will never 58832 - |
I think guys have beauty standards too but anyways your feelings are valid blue 57664 - |
If you feel like a woman, then I consider you one 57664 - |
