classic literature girls
Are any other girls embarrassed that they enjoy the book/tv series gossip girl?

Soooooo i’ve never really been a girlie girl or enjoyed drama. I’ve always read classic’s and literature. But here recently i’ve started getting hooked on the series gossip girl. I haven’t told ANYONE because i’m really embarrassed about it. I don’t know why either. I just don’t want people to think i’m a girlie girl or something haha….

Don’t worry about being embarrassed! :)

I totally understand, actually. I absolutely looooveee literature and classics (my favorite classic are either Pride and Prejudice or Gone with the Wind), but I used to feel embarrassed by liking Gossip Girl and other tv dramas, too.

But you don’t have to be! Honestly, pretty much everyone gets hooked on dramas because that’s just the way these tv shows are. So, you don’t have to feel embarrassed. I mean, I even know some guys that watch the show with me!

And I promise that people won’t think you’re a girly girl! :)
