Stereotypes


 

 

Stereotypes

 

Some think they have it all figured out, judging faces with little background.

You have this idea that is in your head, but you prefer to say it out loud

instead of keeping it inside.

 

Just because a person has blonde hair, it does not determine their intelligence.

Just because a person enjoys wearing makeup, it does not mean their fake.

Just because a person cries, it does not mean their a baby.

 

Things are constantly going to be said that can be insulting and upsetting.

You have to learn to look around it.

Life makes you think that you are forced to fit in with everyone.

Why is that?

It's good to be different than others.

Why can’t they see it?

Everyone is unique in their own way.

 

I can be a successful person by just being myself,

without the world’s opinions about me.

 

Although there will always be these assumptions in other’s heads,

we should stop,

and instead learn to connect with our differences.
