The truth is, I'm not much of a fan of make up. It takes too long to put on, and its just smudges and makes me skin feel heavy and weighed down. And you know something? My skin looks a lot better and clearer for it! As for fashionable clothes...no thanks. If I'm comfy in clothes I will wear them, even if they're not featured on the latest catwalk designs. I don't care if they are years out of date; I don't see why I should spend a fortune on new clothes each season when I have some at home that are still wearable. <br /><br />There were a lot of 'girly' girls at school who tried to get me interested in make up and fashion and all things stereotypically pink and girly, but I wasn't interested. These were the groups of girls that would laugh and tease me about the fact I was interested in hockey and football and planes and cars, and the fact I was an air cadet. So what if I was seen as 'a bit of a tomboy?' There's nothing wrong with that. It made me happy and was something I was interested in. It was my choice to like these things and maintain an interest in them. <br /><br />Being a girl is about being yourself, not what others want you to be.

You are who you are, no-one can change that. No-one can decide what you like or dislike, what you want or don't want or what you want to be or not to be. The others aren't going to force you to get what they want from you! It's your decision; you make it. Don't let them. It's your life, not theirs. Look at how the world has changed over the years by following your heart and soul, motivated by your dreams along the way. Judgements are only set in your path to test you, your determination and capability, nothing else. Don't let them get into you. First it was with racism, but thanks to our noble peace award winner this issue has heavily reduced. Now it's with sexism - by doing your best to brush aside the nasty, evil comments you get given from your peers even if it feels like that is IMPOSSIBLE, remember that the word itself says I'm possible.

If someone says I run like a girl, do they mean I run like my mum (sorry Mum!) or Paula Radcliffe? Girls are obviously not one and the same just because of their gender. Boys neither, they're all different too. Gender is just one of many labels to conveniently identify people - it's not meant to segregate or pit people against each other. There should be no female vs male, no black vs white, no straight vs gay. Labels are for identification, they're not weapons. But I guess it's human nature to turn harmless words into swords and to find happiness in depleting the happiness of others. That tends to be why I get annoyed rather than upset - no one's taking anything from my meagre supply of happiness! Eh. Bit of a tangent. Still. My opinion stands. You can't cram 51% of the population into one personality group. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12688575236166949747noreply@blogger.com
