Adventures in the Girls' Locker Room

For the love of all that is good, please stop.

We're here to get through this stupid ass course,

Why must you make it more painful than it already is?

She didn't ask you how you thought she looked today.

Even if she did, the response she was looking for most likely would not be "like shit".

I'm sorry we can't all be a size zero, cheer captain, honor student, homecoming queen like you.

Some people are content with themselves.

And then you come along.

And then YOU screw it up.

The words "fat", "hideous" and "worthless" never crossed her mind in relation to herself.

Now they are the only words crossing her mind.
