Isn't it funny...?

General
Isn't it funny that when you go to the mall with your friends and you look down at the person with black jeans and studs but smile at the girl wearing a mini-skirt with a lowcut tanktop that barely covers anything?
Isn't it funny you can change your music taste to impress the people around you but when it comes to a girl who likes her own music and has her own style, you give her a mouthful?
Isn't it funny that a guy can get away with being a "gangsta" but the person who expresses themself gets a mouthful from everyone?
Are you laughing?
Isn't it funny how someone who dresses differently can be quiet all through the week when they get more shit from people than the girl who sleeps around and sells her virginity?
Isn't it funny that you dont mind your friends drinking or smoking but
the minute someone mentions punk, emo, or metal music you can give them a lecture on melodramatic teenage outcasts?
I'm not laughing.
It's so funny that you and your friends can make a girl's life hell and not know anything about the silent battle she might be fighting.
Isn't it funny that you can call emos, punks, and goths attention seekers and rebels without a cause but still manage to get through your day without an inch of guilt in your heart?
How can you call someone a poser or label them for being themselves? How can you say to someone "YOUR EMO" OR "YOUR AN ATTENTION SEEKER" without spending a second trying to figure out why there are cuts on their wrists and why they spend their lunchtimes crying instead of laughing with their friends?
(Now I do understand that some people take it to the extreme and DO do it for attention, but that isn't the point here. Also, I realize that slitting your wrists is NOT a healthy way to releave yourself of the world around you.)
Keep on laughing.
Isn't it funny how you can say this without any idea of what is going on in this person's life...
Without knowing her situation with his or her friends...
Or his or her
family...
Or his or her LIFE?
Brave isn't going on a stage and stripping....
Or dumping your significant other...
or embarassing others and making them feel like crap.
Brave is not just getting up on stage and giving a speach...
Brave is...
Going to school and not -FOR A SECOND- care what people around you are saying about your clothes.
It's listening to your own music, and being proud of it.
It's going through everyday with the things people say to your face and behind your back and you just pick yourself up and carry on.
It's knowing that your friends are people who accept you for who you are, not for who you want to be.
Brave is knowing that tomorrow may not be bright and happy but yet you continue to live life to its fullest.
How would you feel if every day of your life you were put down by the people around you, your friends, even your parents. Put yourself in someone else's shoes and take a look around.
Not too fun is it.
Go ahead, keep on laughing.
