Are there male directioners

I have to restrain myself in the way I act in public, and even around my guy friends. If they knew everything, I would not be able to go out in public, and school would be pretty miserable. I know, a big step for me! Similar to the above point, it will affect your friendships. It makes you feel awkward to be there.

The fact that we are male! Maybe they have a different sexual orientation, or maybe they are simply more feminine than your stereotypical alpha male, but whatever the case this perceived stigma leads many to put down those who are willing to admit they enjoy music from groups such as One Direction.

I used to internalize these thoughts, and for a while I questioned if maybe something really were wrong with me, but as I grew older I learned you cannot let the outside world dictate what you enjoy. You have to be yourself, always. You might not want to work in music marketing and you might not even have ambitions of getting into the world of entertainment, but I can promise you wherever you go in life will be infinitely better if you learn to stay true to who you are no matter what.

This may sound cheesy or old fashioned, but you are an incredibly unique being that will never be replicated and that is something you should take great pride in. Your personality is entirely your own, and you should embrace it. Friends, love, and success will all follow. There is so much wonderful art and music to be experienced in this life, and the vast majority of it is not made with any one gender or sexual orientation in mind.

Everyone is welcome to enjoy what they create, and if you approach their albums with an open mind I have a hard time believe you will walk away having had anything other than a good time. But even if you did, at least you would have given the group a fair chance, and that is more than most are ever willing to do mostly because they are afraid of how other will react.

Explore everything you can get your hands on, form your own opinions, and never be afraid to stand up for yourself. Never forget that. James Shotwell is the Marketing Coordinator for Haulix.
