Here is a rant I have been holding back for a while: (please scroll if you’re a sexist or ageist😘)
Obviously being young in the fashion community is tough on its own, it’s like fighting against a million people’s rules that they all individually made up for people to follow, it (most of the times) absolutely sucks. What I love to do is break the rules of fashion, and allow other people to also break those rules! But it is seriously difficult when I constantly get people in my DMs telling me that what I am doing is wrong, or people TELLING ME TO MY FACE that what I am doing is wrong. I never let hate get to me, by telling myself that their just jealous of my confidence🤣 But what really gets to me is when people tell me to change what I am doing because there are “Creepy people” out there... Yes, this is 100% true, but I should NOT have to change what I love doing for other people! To the people telling me to change what I do are telling me that I AM THE REASON for the creepy people, and that the way I dress is the reason these “creepy people” exist... The way I dress is not the reason for these creepy people, THE REASON FOR CREEPY PEOPLE, IS CREEPY PEOPLE!!
I am basically taking the blame for people who need to be put in prison!
Also... I’m constantly being told to “dress my age.”
Clothing has NO AGE.
I am a human being, therefore I shall be able to wear whatever I want! Stop telling me to wear “less revealing” clothes, and let me wear what I want! Stop expecting me to dress like “a normal kid,” Because if you know me at all, you would know that I don’t want to be“normal,” I want to be different, I want to be Indi! So why don’t you just let me?
I feel like when people see a boy my age with his shirt off he is still respect the same, but as soon as a girl shows some of her stomach she is a “whore,” “not respectable” or “asking for it”
Anyway, I could go on for hours, but thank you for listening, and if you think that a kid can’t have an opinion, please take a look at yourself and realise that kids can have an opinion, and that your generation is the reason that kids have to have an opinion✌️
Love from, Indi
And thank you to feminism🤍
