To start, can I just say how much I HATE when people choose to type in such an ignorant way? How hard is it to fully spell out your words? Rarely you will see me use shortened words or abbreviations, and mostly that's because I'm either pressed for time or trying to fit within the word capacity allowed. But I definitely make it a point to not look uneducated.
On to the 'trolling' issue. I literally roll my eyes whenever I see people chatting about Trolls. It angers me that just because people get off on making negative comments or enjoy hurting others, that the 'victims' need to stoop as low as throwing out more negativity to them by calling them Trolls. It reminds me of when I was little and kids would say "you're stupid" so, naturally you would respond with "no, you're stupid" which would probably get you one of those "well, you're stupider" and then you find yourself stooping to "well, you're the stupidest". This and calling people Trolls look like the same thing to me... Am I the only one?
In Real Life: If "Madeeha Miraaj" came up to me (in person) and said these same exact words to my face, how would I react?
Instinctively, I would raise my voice, use profane language and pretty much say Fuck You... and probably throw in some anti-god or anti-religious comments.
But of course, in real life, I don't act as immature as I would like to, and I strive to discuss issues rather than yell at people. My responses you see above are very similar to how I would react in real life.
Although "Madeeha Miraaj"'s comment seems like an attack, I realistically looked at it like this:
- I'm nowhere near popular enough to have people who wake up and say "today I'm going to comment on Beauty By Krystal's Facebook page and call her daughter a bastard"
- This person 'liked' my Facebook page a couple of days ago, and today decided to voice their opinion on my life/child
- This person is not a regular visitor to my websites or a fan of my work, they are a passerby who decided to speak up
- The comment she left on her own post to my wall reads more emotional than hateful, this made me feel like she was not attacking me or directly trying to offend me or my family or my daughter
- This person is a religious person, they obviously have some relationship with their God and feel the need to spread the word to hopefully "save" me or my family or my daughter
With all that said, I am not a religious person. I do not believe in God. I grew up in a God fearing household, and from an early age I knew that religion and any other religion were not for me. I have overcome a LOT in my life, I did it all on my own, there was no higher power performing miracles to my life or to save me. Because of my past and my history with "God" and religions, I am a very open minded individual. I do not hate on you because of creed, I have many friends that love god, attend church, are active and practicing in their religions, but they are also respectful of my beliefs too and do not try to convert me or sell their religion to me.
I bring all this up to help show why I took the time to respond to "Madeeha Miraaj". People who are passionate about their beliefs, their religion, their God(s) feel urges to spread the word. To try to help other people by getting them to see what they see, because they feel it's the only Truth. I decided to accept her bizarre comments as an emotional reaction to seeing how lovely of a daughter my boyfriend and I have. Seeing a beautiful, healthy baby in a family not married might have made "Madeeha Miraaj" feel the urge to 'save' us. So I couldn't just bash on her for her comments, I had to explain that I did understand where she was coming from and that my boyfriend and I have chosen to not believe in such things.
I did end up removing the comments and banning "Madeeha Miraaj" from my Facebook beauty page, this was not to run away from a bully or anything like that. My Facebook beauty page, my beauty channel on youtube, and my beauty blog are all beauty related and people come to these sites to talk about beauty. I feel that "Madeeha Miraaj" overstepped the boundaries by discussing something that is not beauty related or even positive for that matter. I was going to keep it up because I really don't care about it, but I thought about the other beautiful people who might be offended by her comments on my page. So, that is why the comments were removed, so no one else would feel offended or add comments to it.
I'm a very honest and open person, and that's why I opened a personal blog and vlog channel, to be able to share the life I love and to chat about non-beauty things.
If my opinions or words offend you on here (my personal blog), I cannot apologize because this is where I can be my raw self without having to censor myself.
Thank you for reading :)
