What do you like/dislike about society?

Post by Jolie »

In my opinion:

Like: Women have more rights today than back in the 1900s
Children are more important today(:
Men are less sexist :)
Books are been published more often
Dislike: Society has hypocrites -__-

What is you opinion?

Their inability to inform themselves of the FACTS before entering the voting booth...ESPECIALLY for P.O.T.U.S....

The result is the DISASTER we find ourselves living in now..........

In he society where I live right now, I like that I am considered beautiful :D and that it's so cool I can speak English.
I dislike the advertisements promoting weight loss programs and body sculpting techniques. When I figure out how to post a picture, I will show this one ad that promises to reduce fat thighs... the "before" picture already has a thigh gap...

Jerk-offs who dont care about anything but how they can shaft everyone else. Especially politicians. Thats why I dont vote because even the ones with good intentions when they get into office they get caught up in the system and turn out to be bums like all the rest of them.

I like society's perseverance. Even though atrocities happen every day, humanity as a whole keeps pushing on and offering us the chance to live longer and healthier lives (generally). What we've achieved in the past century alone is incredible.

I hate intolerance. We should respect other despite differences in opinion, colour, sexual orientation etc. :)
