When I was younger, I lived with my aunt Rhonda and she always tried to make me into a “girl girl”. She would fix my hair and make it curly and keep telling me “When you are older, I am going to buy you butt loads of makeup”.

They are always putting on makeup before going to work or even taking me to school. I would pay close attention to them and always questioned who my dad never did this. I remember when I was around 7 years told and grabbing my mom’s makeup mad and putting on some pink blush and pink eye shadow. I applied it super fast so my mom would not see that I was in the middle of doing it and take it away, rather once she saw me, it was too late. One day, my younger brother decided to follow me and out on the pink eye shadow as well, my dad was furious when he saw him. He told my brother that it was a girl thing and boys do not wear makeup.
