Today, we are taking a break from taxonomy and biodiversity to talk about something completely different: my one-year update on my dreadlocks.
I'll give you a much-requested update on how things are going. I started sleeping on the floor at the beginning of the year and started walking barefoot soon after.
It's been six months since I DIYed my dreadlocks with the twist-and-rip method. I have been neglecting them since. In this video, I share an update about the progress.
We set all kinds of rules up for men and women. Shaving is just one example of a double-standard where it is totally okay for men not to shave, but women are expected to be hairless and smooth. And now, we are starting to make men just as insecure about themselves.
Clothes should be an expression of who you are, not something else to fit into a box. I talk about not wearing a bra, crop tops, flowing clothes, and not owning anything I like wearing. Let yourself be yourself and wear what you want to.
