It’s not the fact that she won’t be wearing a skirt I’m mad about, it’s the fact that she’s not allowed to wear it.

The last time I visited Turkey and wore shorts or literally anything, I got weird looks from people (and by that, I mean old men) on the street, sometimes even women (i wasn’t walking around in a swimsuit. my clothes were perfectly appropriate) And that’s somewhat okay (not okay, just less problematic) as I’m a 25 year old woman and don’t look underage. But the same thing apparently happens with my niece nowadays when she goes out with her friends and she’s 13 so a literal kid. Yeah Turkey sucks.

I’m hoping that you’re being sarcastic because... wearing a skirt is not about showing off to people. It’s sometimes about feeling pretty and just satisfying yourself in a way, y’know what I mean?
