If you're bisexual, you're confused. If you're gay, it's a sin. If you're skinny, you're on drugs. If you're fat, you look nasty. If you're dressed up, you're conceited. If you dress for comfort, you're a slob. If you speak you're mind, you're a bitch. If you don't say anything, you're a punk. If you are sweet to strangers, you are fake. If you cry, you're a drama queen. If you have male friends, you're a hoe. If you have female friends, you're a player. YOU can't do anything without being criticized . We live in a society where people can't survive if they're not judging the next person... I agree with what you are saying but that ties in a bit with something that I have been thinking about, that often we do not make a distinction between our conscious self and out subconscious. To carry your thought one step further, often if we are told often enough something, our subconscious can make us become that. If we told we are too fat, for example, we can start to believe that if we are told that often enough and that too many times is one of the reasons for teen suicide, among other reasons. If we are told we are worthless and given reasons someone says that, we can start to believe that we have no right to have our own self esteem and then start to actually feel worthless because we do not fit into what someone else thinks we should be like. Those with high enough self esteem do not need to judge others other than perhaps figure out where they fit in our lives and it is those with low self esteem who judge others to compare them with themselves. Unless we are really aware of our conscious and subconscious thoughts and values, we may well become those things others think, whether gay, lesbian, short, fat, and so on.
