5 Unpopular Opinions

We all have opinions on things in this world, and sometimes they can be considered an unpopular one. It's totally normal for this to happen, because we are each individuals with our way of thinking. It's also normal for us to have the same opinion because of the environment, culture, and beliefs we have grown up around. For a little fun, I'm going to list some of my opinions and then I'd love to hear some of your opinions!

1. Pepsi is Disgusting

I don't know about the rest of you, but I think Pepsi and Coca-Cola are nasty. It's probably cause of the acidity or something in them, but either way I prefer to drink Dr. Pepper, Root Beer or Mountain Dew to either of those. Of course, if none of my favorites are available, it's always safe to go with water.

2. Military - Transgenders

I would first like to say that I am very thankful for everyone who has served, be they man, woman, or transgender. It's great that you have served the U.S.! But I do agree with the ban, because of a few things. One of them being that among the LGBT community, transgenders have the highest suicide rates. I connect that back to gender dysphoria, which is considered a mental disorder. Money wise, treatments are also on the same level as people with diabetes and they're not allowed into the military. So that leads me to think that we can save even more lives by not letting transgenders into the military until after they've completely gone through the transition.

3. Apple Juice is Better

This is an ongoing fun debate on whether apple juice or orange juice is better. Personally, I think that apple juice is the best thing in the world. I've been teased that it's my 'boyfriend' because of how much I like it. Orange juice is okay on occasion, but it has to be no pulp and with breakfast. Apple juice is awesome to drink at any time of the day because of it's soothing, sweet coolness.

4. New Pokemon/Yu-Gi-Oh

These newer versions of these two amazing shows are terrible. I don't know what it is about them, but I dislike them. My brother absolutely loves them. Maybe it's because I grew up watching the original shows and now seeing the spin-offs it kind of drives me up a wall. It's the same with Teen Titans, though, because the new one of that show is absolutely crazy inducing.

5. Abortion

Quite frankly, it's the woman's body and society has no say over what she does with it. I personally wouldn't ever get an abortion, but it's my body so I can make that decision. A woman who makes that decision has the right to do so, and we should give her the facilities to safely do so. We don't need woman to go to sleezy doctors who could wind up severely hurting or killing the woman. Scientifically, there's a time frame where abortion is okay to do. Late term abortions are rare and usually only done when there's a medical emergency. In the end, it's the woman's choice.


Now maybe some of these aren't that unpopular and there are a lot of people who agree, who knows! But these are what my opinions are on these few subjects. What are your opinions?

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.
