Growing Up as A Girl

Being a girl is not always about make-up and posting selfies on the internet. Not all girls do that, some enjoy being anonymous rather than attract attention from strangers to build jealousy towards people you hate and know.

I know guys also have feelings. But most of the time, you should be more understanding than the rest of the world. Living a life and giving birth to another life is a whole lot of sacrifice and pain.

Here are some facts about girls that most people can't seem to understand.

PERIOD AND CRAMPS

Menstruation every month is not always about bleeding alone. There are so many things going on. Diarrhea is the worst actually. You have pains inside that you can't easily release and if you do, you hear another person say that you're just overreacting. You have no idea what we're going through. Imagine having pains that has no curr except you have to deal with it until its gone.

COMMENTS AFTER COMMENTS

It is really hard to be yourself when you are judged by the people around you. You wear shorts then hear that those are too short for you. You wear make-up to be beautiful because they say that you should fix yourself then hear that you don't have to weak make-up to be beautiful. People like having opinions. But when you do what they want you to do and to be, they still have opinions. I personally don't mind comments but at the end of the day, it all get into me to the point that I will feel the sadness on why am I still living.

GOING OUT WITH BOYS MAKES YOU A FLIRT

When you go to the mall with your male friends, they call you a slut. It's not always about flirting with boys when you are with them. Sometimes, boys make the best friends compared to female ones who are just insecure with you and gets plastic with you everyday. Building a relationship towards opposite sex is a good habit, especially when you want to have someone to lean on and fight for you when you get into trouble.

BEING SEXUALLY HARASSED IS YOUR FAULT

I hate it when people do and say this. I totally hate it. Like why would you blame the victim and not the suspect? The society always believe that if you don't take care of yourself, you will get into trouble. I understand that. But imagine this, you put a padlock in your door to keep the thieves outside, same thing goes to when you wear a long pants to avoid being harassed in the streets. But what if the thief really wants to go inside so he breaks the lock to get in, same thing when the guy in the street ran to you so he can touch you? Is it still your fault? Kids are dying and dreams were shattered because of lust. But since people thinks they are smart with everything, they judge you before they know you.
