I think I was 8 the first time I realized I was pretty different from the other people I met in the small town I grew up in. I had no interest in their narrow minded attitudes, lack of interest in self improvement, and their fondness for shitty domestic beers. Over the last 3 years, I have given up hope of ever fitting in , superficially or mentally. I started dying my hair, getting tattoos, wearing what I was comfortable in and quit letting their ideas of what was attractive dictate how I presented myself. Suicide Girls has always been a beacon for me of women who have high self worth and express themselves however they please. I am very excited to be submitting my first set later this week. So, cheers to realizing your own beauty standards, whatever they may be.
