Questioning
💁: “ Auntie, I'm a straight girl, but I only really feel comfortable in boyish clothes. I would never change myself just to get a guy, but often my friends will try to persuade me to 'girl up' a bit to try to attract a date. They never force anything on me, but when I'm out with them my clothes can sometimes make me feel like a child in comparison to their short dresses and high heels.
My question is- “Do you think that some men are attracted to more masculine women?”

I want to F the world
Today, I made the best decision ever. I am going to fulfill my dream of traveling the world. Too many times have I given up on something. Too many times have I had this dream crushed by my mother or lack of money. But that ends now.
I will travel the world.
I will experience the cultures.
But how you say?
I’m going to work for it. I am going to start planning now. Decide where I want to go, what languages to learn, and what customs I should know. I will work my way through the countries. Find out places to stay. Rely on the kindness of strangers. Travel light, travel cheap and have fun. I will do it before being tied down by a job, or family.
I want to dig more about more cultures. I want to see what it’s like to live differently. I want to live more selfless, sparing, and adventurous. I want to become an explorer, even in my backyard. I want other people and places and thoughts to fill my soul. I want my mind to be captured, yet constantly wandering in awe of the things around me. I never want to be left alone with time for boredom, because time is sincere of the essence - I only have so much of it. That’s the only thing that I want to be selfish with, my time. I just want to live. I want to live big and courageous. I want to take in the scenery, the lives around me, and just watch and listen. I want to cross oceans, travel through deserts, and climb mountains. It’s like I want to be a conqueror of not the world, but my little world. These are the types of things that I want to fill it with, new things - cool things. Things worth remembering. I want to get out there with no intentions of looking back, and when I do return, I don’t just want to feel a change- I want to be captivated, eager, and satisfied.
I will.
