      Some nasty ass Karen just accused me of being sexist. She was fighting and yelling with heart and emotion, and using invalid points. She was yelling that "women's rights were created because of men like me!" But when I pulled facts on her, and quoted her, she denied everything. Then, she "had to leave". She was being toxic and bitter, saying stuff like "nobody cares" when I was talking to my friend, not even HER, about my dead dog. SMH shame on her. Her roblox username is unicactus_4life. She stressed me out so much, and I had a bad day because of her. She ruined my mood. Feel free to go yell at that asshole.

    people say that she is turning childish things inappropriate, when she is really spreading a big message. That message is that people should not be judged by what they look like and that people should not be changing themselves just to impress others. This is why she is such an inspiration, she teaches so many valuable lessons in her songs, and for some people it’s hard to get the message.

I started even before hitting the play button, since then I've been reading the comments and repeating the song for almost an hour, even when I was supposed to do other things. But it is what happens to me with this type of subject. I can't handle them, I have a limit and the line is over.
      In your case, there may be no going back. But what there is, is another way out. You could try to convince your parents to change schools for you. That was my solution. I hope you are better now and in the future you can find that those around you respect, value, appreciate and love you for who you are for all what you worth. Good luck ❤️.
      I wish the people who inhabit the world were different, so as not to force anyone against their physical or mental integrity. Do not humiliate, do not mistreat, do not attack, do not abuse. In order not to make people like me sometimes just want to stop breathing in the bathtub with the water up to the brim. Thank you very much to all the comments on this video and to the fans of this wonderful singer as well, including her. It helps. After the painful daily assaults amon others that exist everywhere and that too many pass in silence, it is truly moving to see that there are people like you and yourselves.
      Too bad they are not everywhere. And that where they are needed there are others who are completely alone, and isolated.
      I wish all of you light, peace and love in your life.

    Something that really shocked me about this song apart from the lyrics is that during the video at some point the boys take pieces of the cake and Crybaby looks upset. She didn't give it to them, they took it and that's not right. It's another detail that makes K-12 an amazing and interesting experience.

    lyrics:
    feeling unsure of my naked body
    stand by watch it taking shape
    wondering why i don't look like barbie
    they say boys like girls with a tiny waist
    now my mama's preaching to make sure i'm pure
    but i never really cared about that shit before
    look around the room to whoever wants me
    got boys acting like they ain't seen skin before
    got sent home to change cause my skirt is too short
    it's my fault, it's my fault
    cause i put icing on top
    now the boys want a taste of the strawberry shortcake
    that's my bad, that's my bad
    no one told them not to grab
    now the boys want a taste of the strawberry shortcake
    got to make sure that my legs are shiny
    hot wax melting burn my skin
    people all around me watching closely
    cause it's how i look and not what i think
    mikey's eyes seem to be glued to her chest
    so i'm stuffing my bra so that mine look the best
    it's my fault, it's my fault
    cause i put icing on top
    now the boys want a taste of the strawberry shortcake
    that's my bad, that's my bad
    no one told them not to grab
    now the boys want a taste of the strawberry shortcake
    instead of making me feel bad for the body i got
    just teach him to keep it in his pants and tell him to stop
    sayin' it's my fault, it's my fault
    cause i put icing on top
    now the boys want a taste of the strawberry shortcake
    that's my bad, that's my bad
    no one told them not to grab
    now the boys want a taste of the strawberry shortcake

    This is one of my favorite songs because not only is the melody amazing, but because it shows a deep message, revealing some things that aren’t being talked about enough. One of the lyrics “Got sent home to change cause my skirt is too short” shows how women are the ones being blamed rather than the men. Instead of teaching boys not fucking harass girls, the girls are taught to not express themselves truly because they might get hurt. Like what type of society is that? Can’t we all just live in peace without having to worry about getting harassed while walking down the street? This is even an issue in court where the answer is obvious, but people still ask questions like, “why didn’t you say no?” or “why didn’t you say anything earlier?”. I’m sick of women constantly being blamed, harassed, and hurt because men can’t get themselves together and respect fellow human beings. 90% of people who are sexually harassed are women, and 60% of women have been sexually harassed. This needs to stop now.

    Not many people talk about this part, but it truly hits home. “Just teach him to keep it in his pants and tell him to stop, saying it’s my fault.” It’s awful to hear and honestly heartbreaking to know how many young girls who has to face this, like I did. It scars us for life, and it’s never be fair or justified. We act like guys are like animals and just can’t hold themselves, but that’s just another excuse to allow this to happen.

      @@read.with.rupkatha It's the reason I love this song. I am getting sexually harassed by a boy at my school. AND IM ONLY IN 6TH GRADE KEEP IN MIND! I have asked him to stop and he never did. NOW here comes costume day and all my friends wanted us to be a group of animals and I was a tiger. We all had skin tight full body costumes and overalls on and AS SOON as I walk into my third period, he looked at me and didn't stop. And since I'm 13 I have a little bit of breasts. And keep in mind it is SKIN TIGHT. So I felt very uncomfortable that whole day and finally in my band class in seventh period I say to him " Oh my God stop staring at me like that!!! " He asked why... HE ASKED. WHY SHOULD HE STOP LOOKING AT ME!!! I got so mad at that and screamed at him " BECAUSE ITS CREEPY PERVERT!! YOU DONT GO AROUND LOOKING AT GIRLS BREASTS ALL DAY! " And then he said back to me " Well it's your fault for wearing that. " And keep in mind I have told my teachers about it but they have done nothing but agree with him. He still goes to my school. And he is doing the same exact thing to my girlfriend now. I won't say his or my teachers names but I just thought I had to get that out.

      Yes, see this comment, OOHH, I jus love it so much, it gets me into another conversation. If you go to a public swimming pool, you have to wear a top and bottom if you are female. If you are male, you have to wear only bottoms. Why is this required? This is so stupid to me honestly. Most people in my life tell me I’m overreacting, but I know I’m not, if men who have bigger tits than women can walk around shirtless, I believe women can do the same. Seriously. It’s stupid. Same with the scenario of it being a hot, sticky, day, and all a female wants to do is just rip their shirt off. But they can’t. That’s illegal! :/ But males who are hot and sticky on that day, have no problem whipping their shirt off. Again, stupid. When I was little, I remember always wanting, AND SAYING, that I wanted to take my shirt off so badly. Even just around my family. Even my cousins, and other female relatives laughed in agreement. Then why don’t we? It’s so odd. We can handle a male who has a bigger chest then most females(for example) to be walking shirtless, but we can’t do the same for females, just because there is a bit of fat there that provides milk and is a natural thing for some reproduction? Even males who don’t have a big chest, or are fat, and maybe have nothing there, ITS FAT, ITS A PEICE OF FUCKING FAT. This topic is my most important argument for me personally. Maybe we’ve progressed to far into modernness. It’s just such an ignorant and dense law. I also don’t care at all, because most likely, women don’t mind wearing tops, that doesn’t change the fact though that it SHOULD NOT BE A LAW. I really really do want to make petitions for these things, or at least men have to follow these requirements, because both gender’s skins should be treated equally!! We shouldn’t act as if men’s skin is something carefree, doesn’t - matter - if - you - show - it - off shit, and then turn around and tell women that their skin is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT, and you need to hide it, OOOOOHHHH WAIT. But also DON’T hide it! See what I mean? Men can’t even make up their minds them selves. My final message to get to every ignorant, and laws, brain, is that EVERY GENDER’S SKIN SHOULD BE TREATED THE SAME, NOT ONE LESS FRAGILE THEN THE OTHER, NOT ONE LESS TOUGH THEN THE OTHER. Thanks for anyone who survived this long rant! ;)
      Edit: I’d also like to add I know that in ONLY 6 STATES it’s legal to have no top. Another not fun fact, is that women are literally arrested in some places for having the wrong BATHING SUIT!!
