Being a girl consists of many priorities. Generally speaking girls, like myself, often find themselves either spending too much money on themselves or other people. This is not meant for every girl out there, and for the most part many guys might go through this too.
1. Constantly Taking Care of our Hygiene
I don't know about you, but when I walk into Lush I instantly run to the bath bombs. I spend about 30 minutes on EACH new bath bomb that was released. And of course you can't forget the exfoliators. From waking up in the morning to getting ready for a good nights sleep, girls tend to go all out with washing their face, exfoliating, braiding their hair, and flossing, it's definitely a struggle out here, but also a good source of being able to feel confident.
2. That Time of the Month
All girls go through the menstrual cycle, and guys will never know the struggle! Not only do we have to spend money on pads or tampons EVERY month, but we deal with cramps, fatigue, headaches, and odd cravings. It's a time where we can act like brats and it won't actually be on purpose.
3. Being Catcalled
It's a beautiful day outside so I decide to go on a walk, when a man in a sports car drives by and shouts "AY MAMI!" and a little whistle shortly after. This is the most annoying thing ever. Being catcalled can make us feel insecure, and takes our happy mood away.
4. Picking Outfits
"Does this match?" Something I always ask my roommate even when she s half asleep. Even on the lazy days, it's hard to find an effortless lazy look. This is the biggest reason why I wake up a little too early for class. I'm too busy trying to find something to where in my closet full of old clothes. Then I tell myself "I should Go Shopping."
5. Being Categorized as weak
"You throw like a girl!" Something we've all heard. Up until recently I started taking it as a compliment. Just because a girl often appears shorter, and more petite than a guy, doesn't make them weak. Take sports for example; I still don't understand why boys and girls can't play baseball. Instead of making a "soft ball" for girls to play with.
