Before I say anything else, I just want to make it clear that this is my opinion based on my experience with life. Other people have different experiences which may cause them to think differently.
It is MY OPINION that people (men/boys and women/girls) should think about their actions and why they make the choices they do because in MY experience, people who do not think about why they do things often inadvertently hurt to themselves and/or those around them.
Everyone, however, gets the option to do what they want to do. Their thoughts exist in their own heads and no one can FORCE someone else to sit on their beds and actually think about why they did what they've done. My thinking that people should make informed decisions is in no way actually going to force them to do that if they find doing so to be boring or irrelevant.
(and I would say that both men and women experience judgement on their presentation. In fact, I would say that men have simpler rules, but also a far narrower range of acceptable presentation than women do in most modern industrial powers)
(also, I'm not sure why the idea that people should consider their reasons for doing things seems to be hitting a sore spot)
Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
