People classifying other people into categories?
I was playing a game at Pogo..and I am in a room I actually enjoy..(a bi, gay, lesbian room)...and I had this lesbian start on me for being "goth"...saying I could only be in my "teens or 20's" because that is when people usually are "classified" or identify with the "gothic lifestyle"...umm excuse me..since when was being "goth" reserved for the teens..I have been this way since I was a child..I have always been different, unique and I actually LIKE me this way. So what if I like to wear black..so what if I wear makeup...so what if I have fangs? Does it hurt YOU? Fuck no it doesn't....she was also so condesending...treating me like I was stupid....Excuse me..I have a 162 IQ..what about you?
You would think that her being a lesbian and being a "minority"...she would treat other people well, but fuck no...I don't know who stuck something up her ass, but she made me feel like shit...and it hurt. I don't like people judging me before they know jack shit about me...she doesn't know that behind this "goth" exterior, I am a nice, gentle person with a heart of gold. I am a sensitive person who gets hurt very easily. My abusive childhood/teenage years have made me a very emotional person..I can't help that..and I won't apologize for it..so get over yourself...Think before you speak, know that there IS a person behind the keyboard, one that cries, bleeds and feels pain...Don't look at me and make a rash decision of who you THINK I am....
Plain and simple..don't label me.
I am out...
