Can We Stop Hating on Each Other?

It just needs to stop.

Can We Stop Hating on Each Other?

I find this very funny because people talk about not being hateful towards others, but yet it is everywhere.

If a women comes out and says they want to be a stay at home mom and not work, she gets hated on for not going out and working because it is "unrealistic." However, they never ask why she would want to stay at home and people just assume its because she doesn't want to work.

If a women wants to have an abortion, she gets judged for not wanting to have the child. No one ever asks why she did it. Maybe because she didn't want to have a toddler and a new born at the same time, maybe for medical reasons, or maybe because she isn't financially ready.

If a women decides to breast feed her child and for how long people judge on that (usually other moms shaming others). Again not asking why the mother decided not to beast feed or stop at a year compared to stopping when the child is ready.

If a girl/women doesn't want to go into a STEM job she gets judged because she isn't taking advantage of the opportunities that are available to her. Does anyone ever stop to think that maybe she isn't interested in doing a STEM job?

If a guy shows emotion, he is seen as weak.

If a guy likes to do "feminine" activities, they are seen as doing a "women's job" and let me say this: I know many guys who can cook really, really well, and clean better than some women. It doesn't mean that they are doing a "women's job" — it means they were taught to do more than just the stereotypical "mans job" and they were actually taught how to care for the inside of the house and not live in a mess and actually cook real meals.

If a guy wants to stay home with his kids he is looked down on because it isn't the social norm.

Why do people talk so much about supporting each other and yet turn around and do the complete opposite?

Can we stop judging others with how they live their personal lives, which will in no way affect your life in anyway?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
