Lydia,
I agree with everything you said and I admire your courage to write about a topic that may be difficult to talk about. I definitely feel that people need to become more confident in themselves and not let an uncontrollable illness or condition depict who they are as a person. It is important to note that an illness does not make a person…Read More -

Keira commented on the post, Empathy for Social Media Influencers
Paige, I liked how you mentioned that social media influencers are judged for who they may portray themselves online to be, rather than for who they truly. It is important to realize this happens everywhere; people are judged by their outside/ cover or who they let the world see them as, rather than for who they are on the inside.

Dear Keira,
I am interested in your post because I think it addresses a very important issue. I think that everyone has experienced the impacts of gender stereotypes. One thing you said that stands out to me is: “Society is teaching people that if one wants to be different, they are going to have to accept experiencing judgement”. This is an important reminder for people to not accept the poor treatment of others because it should not be acceptable in any circumstances. I agree that empathy is necessary for improving society. Thanks for your post, and I look forward to seeing what you write next because you have made interesting points.
