| Just because a boy is wearing nail polish, doesn't mean to say he's transgender. Nail polish is a gender neutral product however SOCIETY says it's for girls. Wearing a product doesn't make you transgender. I mean I wear stereotypically men's boots but it doesn't mean to say I think I'm a boy. Please... |

It's not like I want to meet up but when I haven't spoke to someone ... |

I too am learning how to socialize, and surprisingly, I have a great group of friends at college. I'm the same, Iike I'm pushing mys... |

| Am I the only one who tries to be less awkward around people and make friends? Like I dislike how people restrict me to a diagnosis and say "she's going to be a loser in life". Even though I first found it so hard, I'm finally fitting in with people and making new friends. I'm still getting used to ... |

It is ok to say that technological progress from lets say the horse and cart to cars is a sign of civilisation becoming more advanced but arts also becoming more sophisticated in some areas except for popular music.
