Confounding Societal Assumptions

1) I see my grey hair as a badge of honour.

2) I like to get my periods and have missed them during my pregnancy.

3) Relationships are on OUR terms. Monogamy is only one option.

4) I ask Why a lot more than I should. But probably not as often as I need to!

5) I love my 100 plus kilogram body, and wouldn't change it for the world. It never even occurs to me I should feel any other way. :-)

So which societal norms do you flout?

hehe, just re-reading my post this morning and it has occurred to me that the vast majority of my friends wouldn't find my half my list list that odd or not normal.
I love my friends, thank you all for being so wonderfully not normal!

I don't want children, ever.

I think everyone should do something creative, like writing or music or art.

I'm vegetarian, but I don't care whether other people are or not, and have no interest in preaching.

Owning a house is not the defining goal of my life.

I have absolutely no interest in watching sport, or hearing the results.

I think art is several orders of magnitude more important than sport, and that writers, playwrights, artists, sculptors, should receive at least as much fame an adulation as sportspeople.

Ah yes, the Australian obsession with sport. Y'know I've been here for over 20 years and I *still* don't get it. Don't get me wrong, I like sport but the arts are so much more enduring and endearing. Art enriches the collctive human soul!
