Hi my name is Bell… well that’s my nickname. When I was younger about from when I was born to 5 years old I was more feminine because my parents made me that way (like I really had a choice then). They made me wear skirts and dresses and girly clothing like a “normal” little girl would, I always hated that. At age 6 I started acting more of a tomboy; it was like my tomboyness was hidden away before though. Since age 6 to now I’ve always been that type of person. I was always in the mud, climbing trees, playing sports, being with the guys more than the girls. This wasn’t a problem until I was 8 or 9. My parents thought it was just a phase but eventually learned it wasn’t. My mother, growing up as a farm girl with 6 brothers, didn’t really care that I was a tomboy but on the other hand my father did. He’d tell me I shouldn’t look like a boy, act like one, or even be around them, he’d tell me I needed to act like a girl because I am one; that didn’t stop me though. Now I’m 13 and in 8th. My friends mostly consist of guys, I only have 2 friends that are girls and the rest are boys including my best friend. All the girls in my class except my two friends hate me because I’m a tomboy and don’t act like a girl, so basically only the guys like me. They don’t reject me and they actually consider me as a boy so that’s great, they know I can take a hit and don’t make fun of me unless it’s in a joking matter. Now for clothing matter, it’s changed a lot. Like I said in the beginning my parents made me wear pink a lot but now that’s changed thank God. (I really hate pink) I wear more boyish clothing now if I can get by with it, because my mother won’t let me shop in the boys section and doesn’t want me to wear boy’s clothes because I am still a female and that means I should dress and act the part. I hate it when people say that to me. Because it’s my life and I can freaking live it how I want to… But since I can’t usually wear boy’s clothes I just wear shorts, jeans, and t-shirts. My hair I just throw into a ponytail because I don’t want it getting in my face while I’m playing (duh).
That’s just the story of my life and being a tomboy, this is the only place I can actually talk about this stuff too. If you have any suggestions for what to do with my parents please tell me.
the Thing with mom and Cloth is exactly the same by me
