Out Shout The Crazies/By Erica | August 6, 2015
"Even in Western culture, which proclaims freedom to be the highest of the high on the list of perks that make our country great, our society quietly dictates how we should present ourselves as individuals at every turn. We are taught from a very young age there is an acceptable "green zone" in terms of what we should wear on our bodies and how we should behave if we are to be welcomed into society. Boys wear blue and play with footballs, girls wear pink and play with Barbie."

I have absolutely no idea what she is talking about, what changes she wants to make in our culture, and how she plans to make them. It might have helped if she gave a few examples rather than dealing completely in abstractions.
