If they're friends, then they've got your back . . . whether you're there or not. Friends won't "forget" about you.

All right, let's consider some history here. I see a number of girls are wearing pants. This used to be frowned upon. In 1938, Helen Hulick was jailed for wearing slacks -- put behind bars.
Do you think society should have the right to jail or punish you for what you choose to wear?
