Wake up at 6:30am to go to school, spend 7 consecutive hours using your brain. Stay after school for another hour or two for clubs or sports because it’ll look good on your college resume! Come home, spend another 3 hours doing homework and studying. 

You’re 16 you should have a job, go work at the fast food place on the corner. Spend another 20 hours per week working at your minimum wage job.

Don’t worry you have plenty of time to do your homework.

You have to save up for college that’ll cost you $40,000 a year.

Don’t forget to eat 3 healthy meals a day!

Don’t forget that test you have in 2 weeks!

Make sure you’re getting 8 hours of sleep every night!

Don’t eat fast food, it’s not good for you!

Make sure you’re exercising so you don’t gain weight!

Why didn’t you get a 100% on your exam?

You think you’re tired now? Wait until you’re an adult!

You think you have responsibility now? Wait until you’re an adult!

You should be studying not hanging out with you friends.

Why do you care so much about what people think about you?

You're 18 and you don’t know what you want to do for the rest of your life?

Anxiety is a myth…

As Women, we have to ACCEPT complements, dress so men will be attracted to us, shave so we do not have hair in places men don’t want, starve ourselves so we have bodies that are what society believes is PRETTY, say things that women are supposed to say, like the things women are supposed to like. What if we DIDNT? What if we dressed how we wanted, accepted compliments we don’t wish to, shaved if we were going to or not, had curves and stretch marks, said things that we wanted to with no fear of how men would react, like things that we like without fear of JUDGMENT from men. What if?
