{ What it feels like for a girl } Gen-Neutral Event is OPEN!

Girls can wear jeans and cut their hair short,
Wear shirts and boots ’cause it’s okay to be a boy.
But for a boy to look like a girl is degrading.
‘Cause you think that being a girl is degrading.
But secretly you’d love to know what it’s like wouldn’t you?
What it feels like for a girl.

Happy Shopping shoe lovers!
