Okay so I guess I don't hate being a girl, but it is really frustrating me!! And I wasn't sure what category to put this under but since it kind of deals w/ boys, I chose this one... Okay so I'm just getting really frustrated and I need a reminder of why being a girl is great. So first off, the whole period deal is just not fair! Its such a pain and guys don't have to go through it!! I put in my first tampon today and it hurt like he**! Its just not fair!! Also, I start swimming for gym class at my school tomorrow... I'm really nervous about that... Also, I get really frustrated by the double standard of morality thing. You know, the whole stud and slut reasoning. Why is it that boys can fool around and do all of these bad things and its snuffed off as "boys will be boys" and all the other guys consider him a stud? But if a girl were to do those same things, she would be labeled a slut and looked down upon by everyone else? I'm not saying I want to fool around or do those things but its the principle of the matter. Its sexist and totally bogus... Plus boys never have to worry about being raped or things like that because those things rarely happen to boys, its so lame and I hate it!! Please... Can anybody remind me why being a girl is good... Because I honestly don't think its so dandy at the moment...

I agree that it's not always fair, but you can't really change the way people think. Those "studs" might get what's coming to them if they make stupid mistakes. It's normal to get frustrated about these things, & periods do suck, I know. But being a girl is great. You get to wear cute clothes & fix your hair in different styles. How many guys can do that? Sorry, I'm just trying to think of how to help you here.

As for the rape thing, it happens to more guys than you think, most just don't like to admit to it.
