We are taught as young girls not to shine too bright or speak our minds because that’s being sassy. We are made to feel uncomfortable in our own homes by having to change out of “revealing” clothes because the creepy uncle is coming over. We are taught to not wear red nail polish because then we’ll be labeled as fast. We are taught to not wear our hair straight because then we are seen as being too grown. It’s our fault for being sexually assaulted because we shouldn’t have drank too much. We should have thought about what we were wearing before we went out for the night.
