So What! [venting away. feel free to join.]

I hate the fact that I just can't be accepted around here [my city] at all. Society expects us to be these annorexic women, that all men can desire. They want us to be perfect. But what's wrong with being us. Beauty isn't measured by the size of your clothes. So what's the big deal? I think every type of person is beautiful in their own ways. And there's people out there to love them for who they are. i'm telling you DO NOT CHANGE for ANYONE. if thy love you, it should be for who you areo nthe inside, not who you are on the outside.

So my butt may be too big, and my hair is always crazy colors, so WHAT! I dont want plastic surgery because i dont like my nose.God made us who we are, he gave us the looks we have for all kinds of reasons.

were not the celebs on TV. they claim to be role models, but their teaching us to be like EVERYONE else. i dont want to be a paris hilton clone. i want to be me.
ANGELINA JOLE & OPRAH WINFERY are REAL reole models.

their not the skinniest people in the world, but their trying to make a change in it.

TYRA BANKS, EMBRACES curves, and is teaching women to do it too.

so when is America going to wake-up nd realize,were INDIVIDUALS, not barbie clones!

And your point is?...

Courtney, I agree one hundred percent! I like the way you think. It's hard to be part of the crowd if they wont accept you for who you are. So, what you should do is start your own damn crowd! XD

Lol RockerGirl.^^

deffinetly =)

I would be the one to actua;;y do that,

my mom today was all like 'Courtney whay can't you be moe like the girls on TV, you know, have some more manners and respect.' I was like OMG.

lol
I can be the girls on TV IF i wasnted to.
Truth is;; i just don't want to be.

& hint to her;; shes always said 'you have to give respect to get it' so it don't look like she's gettny anytime soon =)

'you have to give respect to get it'

Uhm...she's you're mother and if you were my daughter I'd smack the crap out of you for even thinking that...

NO you should show your family respect, Lord help you kids these days...

'my moms so mean she won't let me do this...blah blah blah'

I think I might just call my Mother right now and say thank you to her for teaching me manners, for teaching me respect for others, something I have instilled in to my children and am grateful I did, with how you youth run around these days, God I'm glad my children know better then some of you teens, thats pathetic.

It's even more pathetic that you believe that respect should be granted to you, that you deserve something for being in this world and doing nothing in it...Hay guess what, your parents, the ones you show no respect to, well ohhhh they brought you into this world...and oh my god, they didn't Half to...imagine what the other choices were...

And all your pretty pretty clothes that you wear...and all that stuff that you just half to have...yeah...think on it for a seond and I'm sure you know what I'm thinking.

"If I wanted to be"...

your kidding right?

Well i guess its a good thing im not your daughter then huh^^

look, im not looking for an arguemanet here. im stating what i know.

my 'mother' means nothin to me anymore. for years she's ridiculed me and manipulated me into thinking that the skiiny girls on TV is what im meant ot look like. im skiiny. i weigh 120lbs. but its not good enough for her. she calls me fat a** and other very hurful things.

she also says ill never ammount to anything, and she'll be glad to have my die, so she can be rid of me.

She blames my dads death on me, saying i caused her to get mad, which made him want to leave in the 1st place. honestly, dont jude what im saying unless you really know my situation.

My so-called mother, isnt a mother at all.
and im the one who buys my clother, i buy my own food. & i also help pay rent while SHE lays aroundthe house drinking all day.

you dont know my situation. so until you do. dont judge what i say.

and agian. not arguing. ju st VENTING. theres not crime agianst that.

Yes it is a damn good thing your not my daughter, because then I might teach you about how short talk is and how hard Action is...

Again not many people would take action but if you're life is so hard and your mother is the way you say then they do have ways of protecting children in situations such as yours.

I took legal action to move out when I was 16 and got my own place, had a good job and took care of what I needed to. I learned quickly that I had no right to complain about anything if I wasn't willing to try and change it...

And I don't judge what you say...maybe that lack of what you say to be honest.

Im waiting for my 16th birthday to actually leave.

because yes it is that bad.

Lol Courtney!

Thats EXACTLY how I feel!
