I know you've read articles like this before. Ones that go on and on about how much it SUCKS to be a female and all that beauty is pain shit. I'm here to tell you that every single thing those articles say is true. It does suck to be a woman sometimes. There are negatives, but there are positives. I'm almost 100% positive that guys can't wear a mini-skirt and a crop top to get into a club in record time. Guys can't fake cramps to get out of a boring three-hour night class.
It's a #struggle. Everything is either fattening or expensive.
1. Having to ALWAYS remember to take your birth control pill every day
2. Sneaking that pill from your backpack into your mouth while trying to hide it from everyone else (like birth control isn't a common thing)
3. Always carrying around at least 2 tampons and hoping that they don't fall out (again like it's a shocker that periods exist)
4. Spending money on make-up. I mean you could get the cheap stuff from CVS or Walgreens, but you get what you pay for so I'll be sticking with Benefit.
5. Spending money on clothes. I'm sure that as my age increases, so does the cost for the type of clothing I want... @future husband I apologize in advance for that one..
6. Shaving. Whether it's summer, winter, fall or spring my legs are always growing hair and constantly reminding me of that extra five minutes that I have to take in the shower to shave it off.
7. Remembering that the Victoria Secret Fashion Show is on EVERY YEAR which makes you want to die
8. Deciding if you should let your nails be "natural" and "healthy" for a bit or get a manicure every time it chips
9. Wanting to look like Savannah Montano every day of your life but CLEARLY that's not happening
10. Straightening your hair, only to have it curl/poof in two seconds
11. Deciding between showing the world your REALLY cute outfit or freezing your ass off
12. Taking, at least, twenty minutes to Instagram
13. The never-ending search for comfy high-heels
14. Deciphering texts from guys (it's really like another language)
15. Being caught between wanting to eat a whole tray of slutty brownies or look like Kendall Jenner
16. Having to wear a bra
17. Everything about haircuts
18. Wanting to buy out the whole Victoria Secret store
19. Taking an hour and a half just to get ready to go out
20. Wishing it was socially acceptable to take a bottle of wine with you everywhere you went
21. Being single
22. Not being in a relationship
23. Not being able to be assertive without a bad connotation..."When I am assertive, I’m a bitch. When a man is assertive, he’s a boss. He bossed up. No negative connotation behind ’bossed up.’ But lots of negative connotation behind being a bitch." - Nicki Minaj
