Through writing the past few posts of this blog I have found it incredibly ridiculous how many times I have had to throw in a disclaimer to express my belief no two people are the same and we shouldn’t group people into little molds of being based on appearance, stereotypes, or gender, yet I find it exhausting how people must go out of their way in order to prevent hurting someone’s feelings or making someone feel ostracized for a passion they hold. Why isn’t inclusion our first go to instead of exclusion? We are so bent on grouping things places and people into groups in order to fully understand them that we forget to actually see them for who they are.
