I realize how social media, my family, friends, and other aspects of society have influenced my negative attitudes toward women. When I was in middle school, I wanted more friends who were boys because I felt like girls were too much drama. I joined my 9th grade peers in calling a classmate in a tight dress a ho. During lunch, the same girl was hanging out with a couple of boys and seemed to be flirting, even though she had gotten out of a relationship the day before. I was judging her based on how she dressed and talked to boys.
