Society frowns upon those who are different, depending on the level and degree of the difference.

 

People who are superficially different are ridiculed. Different races are accepted, to an extent, by most of society. Of course, there are those who hate based on skin color, but those people are, in turn, labeled “different” and scorned by society.

 

Those who reject popular culture, whether it be fashion, customs, pastimes, or anything else that would be considered a social norm, are rejected.

 

The social hierarchy is especially prevalent in high school. Those who do not “fit in” are bullied, teased, and generally tortured until they fit the social norms. Unfortunately, most people who are “abnormal” will never be normal, no matter how much they pretend.

 

And then there are people like me. People who seem to fit in, for the most part. We look the part, we act the part, we have perfect families, lots of friends, lots of hobbies. But people like me know that as soon as we take off the mask—as soon as we reveal who we truly are—what we really are—we will be rejected, too. We'll be labeled what we've always been, but no one could ever see.
