Hot take: We should normalize men shaving their body hair too

Maybe it’s just me but a lot of body hair gives me the ick…

Edit: Yes we also need to normalize women having body hair, that’s just so obvious to me so I forgot to state that in the post. And I’m not saying men should be shamed for it (nobody should be shamed for something that natural), I’m just saying it should also be normal for guys to shave. Everyone should get to do what they want with their bodies, I’m not saying otherwise.

Edit 2: I’m also not saying men HAVE to shave. I’m just saying they should be allowed to

I'm religious, but not in the way my parents are

I just want to live my faith the way i want. Today when my dad came to pick me up, he saw me wearing short sleeves and told me that i should stop wearing them. My mom also always scolds me for wearing short sleeves even when it's like hell outside. I get that they want their child to be like them, especially after the first 2 didn't believe the way they did. But like, i could've been a serial killer. Clothing is a much smaller sin thing compared to other things. I don't even wear anything revealing. I do to them tho. And i'm 14, i don't know if they realize it but i'm very conscious about the decisions i make when it comes to things like religion. Then there's the coming out thing, oh god. That's another story.

I know they could've been much worse, i just wanted to rant.

I hate my fuckass classmates.

So, I'm currently in school, and we have a guy with Down's Syndrome (I'll call him "Michael") in the class, and guess what? A lot of my classmates decided that it would be "very funny" to make fun of him right near him. During the break, they walked out in the hallway, and began yelling "six seven" to him, causing him to yell and chase after them (For context: They've been doing this since 7th grade, we're in 9th now. This has come to the point, that even the slightest attempt to interact with Michael causes him to go nuts, at beat up everyone he sees). I've never felt so stressed in school before, and i honestly don't know what to do, cause no matter how much these "funny" guys been told to stop teasing him, it feels like they just don't care.

wtf is wrong with my school

for context i'm in 9th grade (finals week as I'm writing this) and I go to a private catholic high school.

This story starts with a english teacher, lets just call her ms. m for this story. So Ms. M is the english teacher that nobody likes, shes annoying, she'll crashout if you have your laptop in class, and she is very strict with her grading. There are a few other things that make us dislike her but those are the obvious.

Now theres this other freshman (who I don't really know) and we'll call him Max.

So one day, Max decided to make a snapchat account posing as Ms. M, he quickly started adding people from our school. What he did next was he said "Send n_des for English extra credit", now you can see how this would be a problem. The school administration (and the police) found out and they started an investigation.

They found out that luckily nobody send actual "content" to it but.. HE HAS "CONTENT" ON HIS PHONE. He got expelled a week before finals and his credits for this year won't count now...

He also is getting charged with Procession of [it], Intent to get it (dont know the full name of it), and a few other things (I heard this through the school gossip though so idk)
