Taking into account everything that I see on a daily basis, whether it’s on social media, on TV, or even in my interactions with people, I definitely don’t want to bring a little girl into this madhouse. Being a girl is just a set-up for a lifetime of inadequacy.

I can’t even begin to describe why I wouldn’t want a daughter, but they are mostly surrounding ideas based on lies that society mass produces and feeds to the general population.

I don’t want her to feel ashamed if her butt is small.

I don’t want her to feel embarrassed if her stomach isn’t flat.

I don’t want her to feel like her appearance is more important than her reputation.

I don’t want her to feel like her number of followers correlates to her worth.

I don’t want her to feel like she has to be flirty and sexual to get attention from males.

I don’t want her to feel like being abstinent is old-fashioned, and get called a prude.

I don’t want her to feel worried that if she doesn’t please her man, someone else will.

I don’t want her to feel like she has to give all of herself, and it’s her fault if she ever gets cheated on.

I don’t want her to feel small and insignificant.

I don’t want her to feel like she’s never enough.

I don’t want her to feel like the world is crashing down around her as she sits in her room and cries.

I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, especially my own flesh and blood: someone I brought into this messed up world. That also goes without saying that a son could feel all the same things, but in different, milder ways. If by chance I do end up having a daughter, I would fight like no other to protect her, and teach her all the good things she can be. I would hope that her mind would stay sharp, and not be tainted by the lack of propriety that has developed.

I would hope that any daughter of mine would find someone good to look up to. There are too many glorified women that aren’t good role models. And there aren’t enough good role models who get glorified as great women.

Selena Gomez has 95.9 million Instagram followers, and she sits almost completely naked on the cover of her own album. Natalie Falls has less than 3,400 followers, but those few that know her story see her as a brave soul and admire her deeply. She is not a celebrity, nor does she share any resemblance to a Kardashian, but she lives in such a way that brightens up the gray skies of everyone she comes into contact with. Regardless of who is famous at the time, I think I would still prefer not having to raise a daughter in a culture that celebrates promiscuity.
