I Want To Write My Random Thoughts And Feelings

So I want to talk about this photo.



This kind of post gets circulated a lot on “pro-freedom” or “pro-liberty” pages (mostly on Facebook) and honestly it seems very hypocritical. You can’t be pro-freedom and demand people to live the life *you* think is appropriate. The whole point of freedom and liberty is to live a FREE life as long as it does not infringe on the freedom of others. Your hurt feelings do not matter in this situation. Boys wearing makeup literally hurts no one. It is a creative expression that has nothing to do with anyone but them. Even teenagers/kids deserve a certain level of creative freedom and body autonomy. Maybe consider worrying about your own life and just let people be happy.

On a side note, men have been wearing makeup for centuries. It’s not a new concept. Even the Founding Father’s of the USA wore makeup. Pretty much everyone in ancient Egypt wore makeup, male/female and rich/poor. So many cultures all throughout history normalized this. 😂

Thing is, being equal doesn't mean being the same. Boys acting like girls and vise versa is not that good. Of course a person is free to do whatever he wants to unless it hurts someone. But accepting and living with our differences makes it better and fun. Also this pic could mean that over the generation, kids and their choice of having fun changes a lot. Kids often get criticised for spending time on the pc lol.

Who said they are being the same? What you should be doing is accepting who *you* naturally are. If you’re feminine, then be feminine. If you’re masculine, then be masculine. But no one should be told they have to be a certain way. @cutandexposed

@666Maggotz Of course they aren't! But people assume equality is "sameness". I agree with you, of course you must be free to decide who you want to be. Kids generally make a choice under parent pressure. That's sad.

No one is saying be the same. What my point is to leave people to be themselves 😂 don’t twist my message. @cutandexposed

@666Maggotz I'm not twisting your message at all. I'm aware of the boys raised as girls in the name of equality in the Sweden. They say they are "genderless" but raised as all females...

That is not what this post is about. This post is about boys choosing to wear makeup. Don’t bring up a different subject. @cutandexposed

@666Maggotz I'm taking things in a general matter. Sorry for not being a narrow-minded person.

This post was about boys wearing makeup. It’s not narrow minded to stay on topic. @cutandexposed

@cutandexposed just a word for those parents of sad kids who are still alive because of parent pressure that wanted to walk out into the street in front of a car but was denied his choice. It's the parents responsibility for their kids until they become of age . Same as most animals teaching their young how to survive .
