Respect. Society. And you.

Respect.

Society believes that you (we) should respect our elders.

Personally I don't believe that. Respect is a two ways Street and is deserved regardless of age, sexual orientation, gender, ethnicity, etc. They (society) also says the golden rule is to Treat others How YOU want to be treated. I agree and disagree with this. 50/50

I will not, 100%, will not put you on a pedestal if you are hateful, rude, or just a plain bully. If you disrespect me or insult others, you do not (in my eyes and heart) deserve respect.
I see this everywhere. It's annoying.
People will bully others and when they taste their own medicine they don't like it. They can't handle it. Don't you dare dish it out if you can't eat it yourself.

Reading this or any of my posts you might think, "oh, he is just a teenager who rants."
So what if I am? I have things to say.

But anyways, respect.

If you respect me, I'll respect you. If you are a jerk to me, I will not tolerate it nor will you receive respect back.

In all honesty people need to be accepted and respected regardless of anything society may want you to believe.
