 opinion they are good. Besides playing soccer, this is one of my favorite
hobbies because this is the time when I can relax and have a good time, as
other people say "Think about life". The last of my hobbies is texting my
friends, I enjoy it because I have fun talking to them and sometimes this
helps me stop thinking about the things that worry
me._____________________________________________________________

________________________________________________________________
There is a phrase that says "My body my norms" you could say that if it is
your body you should take care of it by using a condom and pregnancy
prevention measures and that if you opened your legs for something that
you liked and that clearly left a consequence to do so to face that
consequence and that's it, which means that I do not agree with this type
of aberrant acts.
