hagaardi did it. i managed to walk into a store, and buy stuff to take care of my hair. the stuff that i wanted, that i chose. i'm going to comb my hair with an actual comb instead of child-sized versions or hotel knockoffs. i have a real hair dryer too.
i wont have to put gel in my hair. or that thing that I can't find the translation of but in french is "laque". i finally have an argument against anyone that comes by and says "cut your hair".
i can let my hair grow. i can take care of it.
that's a small victory, but a victory nonetheless.
honestly, i can already hear people telling me that others could make fun of me for using hairpins and having slightly longer hair than is expected from a "man". and that's even worse when they're women with long hair, cuz when I point it out theyll say "oh but i'm a WOMAHN. it's different because you're supposed to be a manly man and stuff.
i'm not comfortable having short hair. i'm not comfortable having body hair either. stop acting like it's a big deal, shaming me or telling me that i'll grow out of it when i tell you i shave and want to epilate. i fucking hate my body hair. i hate the hair on my legs, i hate the hair on my arms, and i don't want that beard either.
if that's being a man, i don't want to be a man.
and then they'll go around and tell me that i don't want to be a man because of feminism. i don't want to be a man because yall act like fucking morons and tell me "it's manliness". i've seen too many guys acting like pieces of shit and justifying it with "but i'm a boy, imma manly masculine man so it's fine". fuck you. a month ago i was chatting with the security man at the exit of a tech store. i had misplaced my ticket that proved i had paid for the item i had bought. i found it, and that guy told me "oh don't worry. we're men. we misplace stuff all the time and it's fine because we're men".
like no, fuck you. it's my fault that I'm clumsy. it wasn't a big thing, ofc, but i was at fault for that small thing. don't go around and tell me that fault doesn't exist because of that sMaLl ThInG.
i don't know what i should do next? nail polish sounds fun but smells a bit. eyeliner maybe? i dunno.
