Murmur

Time for some English typing practice

From time to time, I couldn't help but feel hopeless with certain issues rooted in our society.

I just watched the Hasan Minhaj show on Netflix talking about all of the racist BS he faced growing up. Though we don't have much race problems in Taiwan, it's still horrifying to just imagine how it feels to live in a place with such vast discrimination.

Gender problem seems to be a much obvious issue here in Taiwan. Living in a enlightened family, I still feel the different treatment among my sisters and me.

However, this is not what I want to talk about tonight. What I want to discuss is stereotypes.

I always hate the moments when people are so into constellation. Not only because it's totally pseudoscience to me, but also the idea that the personality of a person is decided by something one can't control.

We all have the right to choose which kind of person we want to be. Maybe it's way too ideal to become what we dream of, but it's certainly pursuable.

When people say something like "You know that's just how men treat others." or "Bitches always get what they want by whining.", these words disgust me a lot.

We all want to be treated according to who we really are instead of our appearance, gender, income, etc. Sarcastically, those are exactly how many people judge others. I believe that surely we can find some correlation between those issues and one's personality, but we're not here to do social researching. We're here to get along with one another.

Just murmuring about what I'm always frustrated about, not to judge anyone.

I truly doubt whether anyone would manage to read all these, LOL.
