Being Proud

No matter what you're orientation, No matter what you're culture, No matter what you're color. You are still you. You are still a person. A person who has rights. How many people can honestly say they are proud to be who they are? Some people these days are so judgemental and they always have to put down anyone who is different from them or what they believe. There is so much teasing and making fun anymore and it is ridiculous. Whatever happened to everyone being equal? Being different isn't anything to be ashamed of and its definately not something that is wrong. Everyone can't be the same. We're all our own person. We have our right to be different. It just makes me so mad.There were 2 girls holding hands in my school and so many people said mean remarks! They are not affecting you in any way so what does it matter to you!? Why do people have to discriminate? Feel free to include any experiences.

I agree, it's bad, but it's getting better. Whatever happened to equality? We never had it, and we still don't completely, but we're getting there. Like right now people are getting teased for publicly showing homosexual behavior, back in the day they would have actually been thrown in prison.

Yeah you are right. As least there is some progress happening.

i comepletly agree with you. people should love themselves and accept themselves of who they are but their arent many people like that nowerdays.
i am so proud of myself that im a vegitarian. and actualy i started at the right time because theres a meat plant in cananda and its meats are killing people. :) great timeing ? i think so!
Carbaby124 456 days ago
Wow that is pretty good timing. lol. I didn't hear about that, Then again, I'm not really a news person. lol. But good, Its about time theres someone who is ok with being themselves! And you should be proud of yourself, Being a vegetarian definately isn't easy.
Re: saroin420 456 days ago
yeah it made international headline news. they are now closing down multiple meat factories because of this bug. im so happy that their doing this because to raise awareness that meat is horrible for you and isnt healthy anymore. hoenstly those 15 people who have died is like a wake up call for society that meat is not a healthy way of living its a bad way of living. now more people are going vegitarian becasue they are paranoid about the meats. and if their infected or not.
i am really proud of myself for being a vegitarian becuase it was on my list of goals and now ive actualy accomplished it.
also im proud of myself for beeing bisexual :) even though i drift more towards the males i still aknowledge that i do still like girls in that way.
i dont care what anybody thinks becuase they dont have to live my life. really nobody really knows about it but its still good to know i have options.

Yeah you are definately right. And thats good that more people are noticing now that meat is NOT the way to go when it comes to healthy eating. Why do we need it anyway? I mean there are other foods out there that do not involve meat and that are better for you than meat is and people need to start realizing that. I mean, They have the veggie burgers and everything now. They have come up with alot more than what vegetarians had before. Its alot easier these days to be a vegetarian because they have so many meals strictly for vegetarians and so more people should try them. Alot of people are afraid of the challenge though. But I'm glad you're proud of everything you are. I think more people need to do the same! There is just so much negativity lately coming from people and its disgusting. But I think I can say I'm happy with who I am too. And whoever doesn't like that, Thats fine with me. But yeah I can definately relate to you because I'm also bisexual and nobody really knows but my best friend. There are other people in my school though that are also bisexual but they got so much ridicule and remarks that it makes other people kind of afraid to let it be known.
Re: saroin420 453 days ago
yeah they have come up with proabably more food options than ever before which is amazing and such a good alternative.
yeah everyones beeing so negative latley its just not good for the environment at all or ourselves. yeah i know people do that all the time in my school. theres a boy in my school and hes bisexual everyone makes fun of him. hes a nice guy and i feel bad for him. and im thinking k are you seroious? why would you make fun of someones sexual oriantaion its not like he comes up to them and makes fun of them for beeing stright.

Aw that is so sad. I think people should start doing that now, People should start dissing straight people so they see how it feels!

What the hell are you talking about?

Everyone is not equal no matter how you look at it.There is and will always be some type of division of some kind.Whether it is socially,economics,race,or status etc.You may fix one thing but something else will always make one different from the other.What your asking will never happen.But it will be more mask.People who out right did not like other races now how to find other ways of their disdain.It is no longer except able being and out right racist.It will also be some kind of inequality.
Re: saroin420 447 days ago
uhh are you kidding me ?
wow you can go right ahead and think that way keyonaj33, because everybody is equal deep inside. were all the same, we were just raised diffrently and have gone though diffrent life experiences to make us who we are.
Carbaby124 446 days ago
Whoa, keyonaj33. What are you saying? Are you saying its ok to be judgemental? Are you judgemental? What I'm saying is PEOPLE SHOULD BE PROUD OF WHO THEY ARE.
There are so many people who commit suicide or go and get plastic surgery or are so depressed because they don't like who they are! And the reason they don't like who they are is because they get made fun of! They get ridiculed and harassed and embarassed and that IS NOT RIGHT! People need to get it through their head that ITS NOT RIGHT TO MAKE FUN OF SOMEONE! And thats no matter their race, or sexual orientation, or culture, or religion, or ANYTHING! Every person has their right to be WHOEVER THEY WANT TO BE! And I actually am proud of people who are proud of themselves! I'm proud of the people who DON'T CARE what everyone else thinks! Because its all about YOUR happiness! Not theirs! PEOPLE WHO ARE JUDGEMENTAL ARE MISSING OUT ON SOME OF THE NICEST PEOPLE THEY COULD EVER MEET!

on a daily basis when me and my girlfriend are walkin through the hall and i give her a kiss before i say bye people always run their mouths. it hurts.
Carbaby124 440 days ago
I am so sorry to hear that, give_peace_a_chance. And I'm glad you had the courage to talk about it. I can definately relate. Those types of situations are exactly what I am talking about. Why is it the "average" girl can walk down the hall and kiss her boyfriend goodbye and nobody says anything, But as soon as something "Different" happens, Everyone in the school has to go run their mouth!? People need to start being more open to these things because with every year that goes by, These situations are going to be more and more common. And that is NOT a bad thing AT ALL! It just annoys the HELL out of me that people have to judge so much. You'd think being different was a crime! It is SO sad that people hide their relationships or their feelings because they don't want to have to get picked on! People shouldnt have to worry about that!
Re: aiufhewiufhaiuh 440 days ago
Why not? I have every right to judge you.
Carbaby124 439 days ago
Yes, CONORHENNESSEY, You do have the right to judge me. But this isn't about having the right to judge someone, This is about having the right to BE someone. And anyone who has the adaucity to judge someone, Is no better themselves.
Re: aiufhewiufhaiuh 439 days ago
You have a right to be whoever you want to be, and I have a right to criticize you for your decision. I have the audacity to judge you and I find you small minded. I'm better then that. Q.E.D.
