All the Boys and All the Pretty Girls
Why does
the first question from your close ones when you like someone have to be, “Are
they cute?”
Seriously.
What does looks have anything to do with this? Why do people focus their
attention on the outside rather than the inside? Yeah, sure, the first thing
you notice about someone is their envelope. Their body. Their shape. Their
skin. You get it. But does it consist of the only reason why you like them?
Why can’t
the question be, “Are they nice?” Or maybe, “Are they funny, smart, etc.?”
I hate when
I talk about a guy and my family asks if he’s cute. The guy that likes me won’t
be able to answer “yes” to this question when his parents asks. “Is she cute?”
And his answer is going to be, “No, she’s not.” And it’s a disappointment for
the family, because then you see your grandchildren being ugly and your whole
family judging your son for dating an ugly girl. You see his future crumbling
down and his life becoming a mess. Just because she isn’t cute. Just because
I’m not cute.
But since
most people don’t even care about personality anymore, there will be no family
to ask their son if I’m cute, because there will be no guy to like me. No guy
to judge beyond the envelope I carry around. The one I’m stuck with because of
genes and malnutrition.
But out of
respect for the people around you suffering daily of ugliness, please watch
your words. They hurt more than you can imagine.
