It's an annoying fact that our society is very much based around judging others, and maybe it's just our human nature to compare ourselves. We are a competitive people in a competitive society. However, that is no excuse. Time and time again I hear girls commenting on other girls' appearances saying things like, "She just has on way too much makeup" or "She only wears/does that to get attention from the guys" and it's about time we step back and think that maybe, just maybe, girls don't actually do things for the approval of someone else. Did we ever think that they do it for themselves? So what a girl wears a lot of makeup? If she likes the way it makes her look & feel, she should embrace it. The same goes for wearing no makeup, dressing conservatively or wearing a short dress, dressing overly nice or not caring what you wear... The list goes on. As girls, we can be fairly petty towards one another. We should be in this together! As for boys, it's time you realize that our lives DO NOT revolve around pleasing you. We were not put on this earth to look good for you. I find myself unsure about a lot of things, but one thing I know for sure is that I was put on this earth for so much more than attracting your attention. If I look good, I'm doing it for myself.
As soon as we start thinking this way, confidence follows.
