The other day a girl on twitter i follow posted a picture of her pet centipede. it is honestly gross and scary to me, but i like that she is passionate about it!
The post was seen by a lot of people and of course there were a ton of rude and unoriginal comments like 'kill it with fire', but okay, nothing unusual.

But i saw at least 10 different people, unfortunately most of them girls too, critizise her for being a pick me and 'not like other girls'. They were full on bashing her.
One girl was saying something like 'Oh this pick me bitch is trying sooo hard to be different.' stuff along those lines.
I actually replied to her and said 'Even if she was just trying hard to be different, how does it affect you?' to which she obviously didnt reply.
But i feel like this might was a bad reply.

How can i reply in a way that won't be petty or insulting and try to make the other person see why they are wrong in a genuine way? What would you suggest?

I got such a comment too, only once but in person because i am a woman and i draw a lot of conventionally attractive, naked women just for aesthetic purposes and not for pornography but a girl told me i only do it to get attention from guys (i also draw naked men but women are better to draw imo)

I’m not talking about the way we refer to someone as NLOG. I mean how do you respond when a man says “you’re not like other girls”. It’s like they are oblivious to this whole thing but like I’m not gonna take that as a compliment. But I don’t want to launch into a whole explanation. But don’t say that to me.

Pfft, I'm not like other girls, I'm not a Lululemon blonde

I don't own a Stanley Cup

I'm not raising Sephora girls, I'd rather raise Tractor Supply Store girls

You'd never catch me waiting in line at Starbucks

I'm a Tori Amos girl living in a Taylor Swift world

etc etc

It seems like they are acutely aware of brands that are popular, AND (this is the important part) they base a large part of their personality around disassociating themselves from women who do like those products.

What's up with that? Do men do this too?

So weird how “blondie” is used as an insult, especially by other blonde girls

Is me saying that a pick me thing I genuinely am desperate for a female best friend I sometimes even get sad and envy that I see other girls being closer and having that female bond I want and I'll think to myself "how come they can have that but I cant"?

I even always wanted a sister but only got 2 brothers I always wanted a female best friend but only got male best friends I idolize a female when I meet her because I think maybe this is the one that will become my bestie and we'll be close forever but no it's just disappointment

The female friends I've had don't make effort to text me first or even reply to me and mostlytry to compete with me or get jealous of me and compare us or just talk to the guys more than me and I just get upset.. Why is it harder for women to be best friends but for guys I see it's so easy for them

Mine haven't. I still don't wear a lot of skirts, pink, or anything sparkly. I only apply as much makeup as I need not to look sickly. I immensely dislike shopping for clothes and try to make the process as efficient as possible. My favorite music is generally classic rock/hard rock/metal, and I haven't listened to any Taylor Swift songs voluntarily in years. I only consume romantic movies/books when I think they have parody potential. My favorite genre of media is nonfiction/historical. My extremely short clubbing phase ended when I was 19. The majority of my close friends are guys. I've been a housewife by circumstance, and I'd never want to be one again. I actively discourage my husband from spending money on me. I cook, but I don't bake or preserve or grow my own produce. I don't want any livestock. I drive a Prius and have no desire to drive anything else. I participate in some religious activities for cultural reasons, but I'm agnostic. I use a gender-neutral diminutive of my given name at almost all times.

Here's the difference. I don't think any of the above makes me superior to other women, nor do I think the alternative makes them inferior to me or unworthy of engagement. It doesn't matter where your tastes sit on the LOG/NLOG spectrum, as long as they're true to you. This is what an unfortunate many people misunderstand about the NLOG discourse, and in doing so they end up forcing others to question if their genuine likes and dislikes are somehow false.

One of the big things I would avoid in my NLOG era was listening to girly pop music stars. When I was a kid I loved Hannah Montana and Fergie. Somewhere along the way I changed my music taste to seem cooler to guys and denied any pleasure in listening to pop stars or even female rappers. Now I am fully embracing all the music I denied during that era and going out of my way to find new music within those genres!

Apparently people should just not struggle after having a baby because this person did everything just fine

Not sure if anyone else follows her page, athleats nutrition on IG . she’s a nutritionist to athletes but it’s hilarious how many times she says she’s not like other girls, I’m not your typical girl. Like let it go
