My mother and I had a dispute about, in part, the way I wish to dress. I want to have a more gothic/metal look to me (and I manage to put together an outfit here and there but not much.) but she says I basically need to grow up because I'm a senior in high school and that it's not socially acceptable, that I will look like a weird freak. The problem is that that clothing style reflects my personality and interests, who I am basically. I feel like people can obviously see that I'm different despite the fact that I dress "normal", I act and think differently than others. I am intelligent and people can see that, but, like I said, they also can see that I'm a bit strange no matter how I look. I just want to enjoy myself because I had a difficult (and rather dark) high school career and never really got to enjoy myself. I want to look unique. I want to enjoy being myself without worrying so much about other's views. I am a Christian. And by the way, I'm a guy.
