Your eyebrows are beautiful

Recently I read a post made by Megan Kyla, the writer of the Coffin Kitsch blog. It was about eyebrows. Yes, eyebrows. It really got me in to the writing mood and I was going to make a huge ass comment on her post, but decided to make a whole new post about it.

Now days I am a big fan of thin and drawn brows, but that was not always the case. I used to be that horrible person that laughed at people who shaved their brows and then drew them back in. Why was I like that? Well, I had some really close people who felt strongly that it was ugly to draw your eyebrows. Commented on them on the street, send me pictures of drawn brows as a joke. Like I should laugh at it. Even asked me that why are girls so stupid that they do it. And yes, I did laugh.

Of course, that was years ago. I have really grown as a person since then. I used to make fun of lots of things in peoples appearance, there was this norm in the goth community to make fun of those skinny ass blondes with fake tans, fake nails, fake hair... Of course that affected me. I saw endless amount of comics, strips etc. about how they were the "enemy". "Oh oh, look how different these people are, no way they could ever be friends or get along." These were of course made with humor and I should had not taken them seriously.

I am so happy that I have realized how wrong I was. All of us are just people. And all of us just like different things. How fucking boring the world would be if we all were goths or hipsters or rockers or whatever. People like different things and that what makes people great.

I promise that what ever you wear, put on your face, pierce, color, tattoo, or modify. I won't be the one saying anything negative about it. That's how you like it, that's how you should wear it!

I can't begin to tell you how angry it makes me to see pictures on the internet, that make fun of other people's appearance. Yeah I like to browse pages like 9gag or riemurasia. But these pages are full of offensive pictures. Every time I see one of those pictures I have to stop browsing. That's just so I don't throw my phone to the wall or punch a hole in my laptop. Just imagine if your picture ended up there for everyone to make fun of. How would you feel?

I am constantly made feel bad about my appearance and how I choose to dress, so I can't stand anyone doing it to anyone else.

It's okay if you do not like something on someone, and it's okay to think that "oh well that's not something I would do/wear myself". But it's not okay to say it out loud! And it's even less okay to insult people in the internet about it. It makes me so damn mad!


Ranting mood is the best mood ehhh..? :D Wellp on to other things. Yesterday I shaved my sides again and I got rid of those little sideburn hairs. They were nice but they were a pain to style. Also this way my new ear piercings show much better! I have a terrible urge to fill my ears with metal. So I got 2 new holes at the Underground Store in Joensuu.



Something also arrived in the mail! I ordered this Lipcote from ebay, and I have to say that I'm in love! It's a clear coat that you put over your lipstick. It keeps your lipstick in place while kissing, eating, drinking, what ever you use your lips in! I don't know how have I even lived without this. Definitely going to use lipstick even more often.

  1. Hyvin kirjoitettu! ^^ Luulen, että tuo "me vastaan muut" -asetelma on vain jäänyt pyörimään niiltä ajoilta, kun alakulttuurigenret alun perin alkoivat kehittymään.

      Hyvin mahdollista, ehkäpä siitä joskus päästäisiin eroon.

  2. Glad my eyebrow posted inspired you! Hehehe! We all grow as a person and realizing that is great thing! I also get upset about all those comics and meme's making fun of people (eyebrows and all).

    1. Hahaa xD
      And yeah, I guess we all have that phase more or less. I'm just glad at least some people get rid of it eventually and realize how it hurts other people.
