Let's Not Overthink It Shall We ?

Today, one of my classmates said something that bugged me -I'm sorry but i'm not a gentleman so don't expect me to help you. Well, not of that exact context but that's what he meant. Before this, he wrote on his status that he thinks the world's unfair. He wonders about the existenece of a gentlegirl instead of a gentleman. He thinks that it's unfair that boys are always the ones who tolerate and give in to girls. Well, i'm not gonna be the judge of this but if we were to lay every single unfairness between boys and girls, i think we're even. It's not easy being a boy, neither it is easy being a girl. Well it's not easy being anything !

My point is, why do we need to differentiate and label ourselves? Whether you are a gentleman or not, it's up to you to decide. What other people want to think is out of our control. Instead of complaining or trying to be the perfect gentleman, why can't we just let things be simple and help each other as friends? Why do we have to label ourselves in a way that'll make everything so complicated?

I guess that's jsut the norm of us human minds. We tend to overthink every single detail and confuse everyone including ourselves. We just can't be simple.
