over the last few months, specifically, i've realized that most teenage girls are so fake, myself included. for example, all girls... (1) talk without caps but usually in abbreviations or with all correct punctuation, (2) carry tote bags to school, (3) wear hollister & abercrombie, (4) have a manicure, pedicure or combo, (5) have or had side bangs, (6) either "scrunch" or straighten their hair, (7) have or have wanted a tiffany bracelet / necklace, (8) own converse in any color... (9) have / have worn / have wanted to wear mascara and / or eyeliner (1) usually talk with extra letters (e.g., heyy! how are youu?)
all of the above apply to me, but why are girls so obsessed with fitting in with the popular crowd? it's not even state-wide, it's NATIONwide. all teenage girls are skinny and obsessed with their weight and either all or most of the above apply. why is this? what's your opinion on it? i sometimes wonder myself where my individuality has gone, but EVERYONE does it. so why does everyone go along with it? it's so bad that once on advicenators, i was reading a girl's problem and i was going through the exact same thing and -- BECAUSE ALL GIRLS TALK THE SAME WAY -- i actually stopped and asked myself if i submitted that question, and had to check. i can't even recognize my own voice and way of speaking because everyone talks in the same way.
I was thinking of this concept last week! You put it into words really well. I love this question. Thank you for asking this, even though it's a little depressing to think about.. :( Deep down inside, I don't want to conform. But I feel like if I don't conform, I won't have any friends. Or rather, my friends will be the most loserish, ugliest girls. It almost hurts to say it.
Sigh.
PS: I wrote my answer in all lower case. I went back and rewrote it. haha.
(Another thing to add to your list: girls have started abandoning "lol" for "ahaha" and "lmao" for "ahahahahahahahaha" (That was exaggerated, btw))
(Rating: 5) that's because LOL is really annoying and no one is actually ever laughing outloud. so we use "hahahha" to show how funny it is, "HAHHAHAHA" being really funny and "haha" being like a chuckle during an awkward silence. i do thattt.. and you didn't have to rewrite the question!
