Thank you for those of you that said something. I was going to post something yesterday but I couldn't form the words. I 'm very upset by some things that are being said, though I'm not by any means surprised. since I've seen it before. I had a cousin that had above average looks, I would say. For reasons I still don't know, she committed suicide about two or so years ago. Someone in the family made a page for her on Facebook and when I looked, there were the typical "She was so gorgeous. RIP," posts mixed in with comments talking about how she was "a ****" and, yes, the classic "she deserved it. Thank god she's gone." So, this is kind of hitting a bit too close to home for me.
In any case, both the "ugly" and "pretty" people deserve my sympathies. It's very upsetting that certain groups of people are left out and it's not just ugly people. Hate crimes against certain groups, such as the trans* community, is nonexistent in the media. But since the media isn't going to do a thing about it, sometimes you just have to raise awareness on your own if it's important to you. In order to get the media to change what it's reporting, you have to change the minds and hearts of the audience. It's unfortunate, but some people are still so backwards as to not care about anyone not pretty and white. But that's the fault of the media and parts of society, not the pretty, white girl's.
