My social media ads lately have been for razors. And I& #39;m sitting here like jokes on them because shaving is a stupid societal norm that I don& #39;t buy into. I rarely do it and when I do, it& #39;s for me and no one else.
While we& #39;re at it, I don& #39;t really buy into societal gender roles. Make up? Nah, I& #39;d rather spend my money on something else. Dresses? On occasion. They& #39;re comfy and some days I& #39;m feeling it. Heels? F no. I already have a jank ankle why would I put myself through that pain?
It took me a long time to be comfortable with who I am and what I like. Is that to say anyone who does like those things is wrong? Nope. Do what makes you comfortable an happy. But as for me? I& #39;m a "braid my hair to get it out of the way, t-shirt and jeans, no make up" person.
And the fact that I have people in my life who feel "It& #39;s such a waste" and I could "look so much better if only I tried" is frustrating.
And I& #39;m tired of hearing how I& #39;ll "never get a guy with that attitude" because, guess what? I don& #39;t even WANT a romantic relationship. Why do I care what people think of my looks?
Well, that& #39;s the end of my rant. I hope more people can learn to be more comfortable in their own skin. No one else& #39;s opinion matters. Do what makes you the most comfortable and happy.
