Gender roles are the roles or behaviors learned by a person as appropriate to their gender, determined by the prevailing cultural norms. These are the bits of your culture or society that assign to you at birth blue or...

I prefer to trust a person before I do anything with them. I want to learn what I can about them and what their history is. I want them to know mine also. I know some may say "You are a virgin still why?" Honestly, do you...

Anoraks are going to be pretty big this fall (as they are every fall lol). They do a great job at keeping you dry during rainy weather and keeping away chilly winds. They are also very fashionable, so I compiled a list of...

Starting over sucks. When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I’d pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring… until I spotted my hot neighbor, with...

I wouldn't have thought that my first MyTake on this website would be about my first heartbreak that I have had in a while. Some people say that heartbreaks and disappointments actually inspire and lead us to write, make...

I know, I know... Faux leather is the 'humane option'. Real leather shoes, bags and everything else is the 'devil'. But why is this? Is it because you're vegan and are all about animal rights? Or is it because you just...

Well...I'm sure we all know that there's always something you see on a well made up woman that you just know is classical. It's classically beautiful and appealing. But those classic looks don't always have to be so...

Dark purples are not always popular nor are they easily wearable, but... Fall is the perfect season for them. And this fall - with darker hair - purple lipsticks look absolutely amazing! While purple is amazing for a...

We are a world obsessed with hair. It's something that's right in your face (literally) and that can get you noticed for better or worse. More than just an accessory, sometimes, hair can be an indicator that we are...

Silence and ignorance are two things that most often allow abuse to continue on in victims lives. Silence on the part of the victims, and ignorance on the part of the families and friends. People have in their minds, the...

Before you continue reading my myTake i want you to close your eyes and repeat S outh Africa , South Africa, South Africa to yourself three times. What imagery did you immediately associate with the country? Everyone...
