Here's the deal. If you are going to be in the work force one day, and if you are going to have an opinion, on ANYTHING, you might get called a name. A very specific name reserved for a woman with an opinion, a mind, and the will to stand up for herself. You probably know what that name is, because, unfortunately, you may have already been called this name. You can be the sweetest, nicest girl in the world, and if you have a different opinion from someone else, you will probably be called this name. If you're still in the dark, it starts with a B, and that's as far as I'll take it. Sadly, gender issues are still out there. Maybe by the time you get to be in your 30's and in the work place it will change, but I doubt it.
Here's my advice ladies: go and do anyways. People will try to bring you down. Sadly, just by being a girl you will have labels placed on you that may already weigh you down. Go and do anyways. Men will say, "this girl is hotter than you," "shut up, what do you know" and girls will talk behind your back and say, "who does she think she is?" Go and do anyways.
Be smart and keep striving to learn more. Don't be dumb because it "looks cute." Any man that is worth his weight in gold will love and want a woman with a MIND, who can think for herself and stands up for what she believes in and knows she's worthy of love all on her own.
It's not easy. Some days you may want to just be that "dumb, cute chick". Don't fall for it. Stand on your own two feet, lift your head, and don't let your crown fall, because you're a QUEEN, not a princess. Let people rise to your standards, and never lower yourself to theirs. They may call you names, especially the one reserved for a woman with an opinion, a mind, and the will to stand up for herself, but at least you're standing for something, and that's good enough.
