Can We Stop Hating on Each Other?

It just needs to stop.

Can We Stop Hating on Each Other?

I find this very funny because people talk about not being hateful towards others, but yet it is everywhere.

If a women comes out and says they want to be a stay at home mom and not work, she gets hated on for not going out and working because it is "unrealistic." However, they never ask why she would want to stay at home and people just assume its because she doesn't want to work.

If a women wants to have an abortion, she gets judged for not wanting to have the child. No one ever asks why she did it. Maybe because she didn't want to have a toddler and a new born at the same time, maybe for medical reasons, or maybe because she isn't financially ready.

If a women decides to breast feed her child and for how long people judge on that (usually other moms shaming others). Again not asking why the mother decided not to beast feed or stop at a year compared to stopping when the child is ready.

If a girl/women doesn't want to go into a STEM job she gets judged because she isn't taking advantage of the opportunities that are available to her. Does anyone ever stop to think that maybe she isn't interested in doing a STEM job?

If a guy shows emotion, he is seen as weak.

If a guy likes to do "feminine" activities, they are seen as doing a "women's job" and let me say this: I know many guys who can cook really, really well, and clean better than some women. It doesn't mean that they are doing a "women's job" — it means they were taught to do more than just the stereotypical "mans job" and they were actually taught how to care for the inside of the house and not live in a mess and actually cook real meals.

If a guy wants to stay home with his kids he is looked down on because it isn't the social norm.

Why do people talk so much about supporting each other and yet turn around and do the complete opposite?

Can we stop judging others with how they live their personal lives, which will in no way affect your life in anyway?

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
