So I found this article on yahoo about a girl named Balpreet Kaur who was made fun of for following he Sikh religion. She is a very strict follower so she is forbidden to alter her body in anyway which means not removing hair from her body and face. Someone took a photo and posted it of her and her facial hair was clearly visible. Instantly many people commented back making rude and inappropriate comments about her appearance. She was brave enough to confront them in a peaceful way instead of causing a ruckus. She informed them about her religion and why she doesn't want to alter her body even if that is what people believe she should do because that is what all other girls do. She is a truly inspiring person and has become a role model for many by just typing a few words.
