This is going to be a quick rant because...well... Im tired and Im sure we all have met people like this before...
The subject of my rant today..is RAMPANT STUPIDITY!!! Im sorry people... just because you MAY have an enormous IQ does NOT mean that you arent dumb as a box of rocks.
WHYYYYYY do people insist on exposing their complete and total lack of common sense and intelligence to the whole damn world. What? Is it some kind of badge of honor to prove to the world that your whole damn existance in this life has been a complete and total waste of space and air.
Ive met some people lately that even I cant find any redeeming qualitites in and by all thats sacred and profane... thats pretty DAMN BAD.
Why of why is rampant stupidity NOT punishable by slow disembowlment and eminent death???
God save me from the stupid people or this world or at least give them a raging case of year long layngitis so I wont have to listen to their moronic ramblings!!!!!
As women...we are our own worst enemy in regards to how we view ourselves. We have been brainwashed into thinking that to be attractive we have to "look" a certain way or weigh a certain amount...and towards that end we starve ourselves, have surgical implants, and wear clothes that are akin to medieval torture devices ie; underwire bras, spike heeled shoes, girdles, butt-floss (aka g-strings), corsets (which I will admit to liking), and various other things that once you get em on, takes a man having a degree in rocket science to get off. WHYYYY??? All in the name of fashion.
What sadistic SOB decided that 2 lbs of wire and 4 inches in padding shoved into a bra was a GOOD thing? So that the boobs sit up all nice and "perky"??? Got a news flash... breasts ARE NOT meant to sit up that high and no matter how much wire you stick in there... gravity will NOT be stopped. Its just not normal!!!
And for Gods sake, WHEN the hell did it become "fashionable" to look like an anorexic adolescent. Throughout history women were SUPPOSED to have some meat on thier bones. Ladies were curvy and soft, the way we ARE meant to be. Childbearing hips, lush breast and softly rounded bellies are depicted in almost ALL historical works of art. It wasnt until the last 50 years or so that the normal wieght and body image for women has changed. Just for the record.. marilyn monroe... who was one of the sexiest women of her time was a size 12 and even leaped up to a 14 at one point. So from a 12 we now have clothes sized for women that are a size 0. Does ANYONE besides me see this as being a problem. What are we teaching our children? Its no wonder that the rate for eating disorders has SKYROCKETED in the last 20 years for both girls AND boys. And we cant blame it on the men ladies... WE are the ones who are supporting the insanity and making the fashion industry RICH. Its not the guys out there buying the clothes and spending millions a year in diet pills and diet programs.
And one of the most horrific, are the surgical procedures. Women and even men will go under the knife to have breast implants, tummy tucks, rhinoplasty, liposuction and their body "reshaped". Maybe its just me...but I dont understand the appeal of having my body cut open so that someone can shove a bag of saline into my tits and then have to PAY for the privilidge. What they dont tell you in the fashion magazines are the risks such as seroma, reduction in breast/nipple sensation, scarring, leakage, necrosis and alot of other horrors all in the name of living up to some body image that for most of us is completely unattainable.
I will admit it...Ive bought into the game myself. Ive been on diets that wouldnt keep a mouse alive and Nox rides my ass about that bad habit all the time. But Im slowly starting to break myself out of that vicious cycle of trying to live up to fashion norms. There is no way in hell I will EVER get back into a size 7 and Ill be damed if Im going to kill myself trying.
I mean..look around at the avatars and backgrounds that people use on personal profiles..for the most part they are stock footage of playboy models and sex kittens with jaunty little asses and silicone enhanced tits. Hell, even Im guilty of it. We are constantly playing into the stereotype of what is sexy and attractive. When will we just be happy with who we are with all our lumps and curves, wrinkles and freckles and all that being human entails?
Im not saying that doing things to make you feel better about yourself is bad...because its not. We all want to feel beautiful and attractive but it starts with looking into the mirror and seeing past the "flaws" and knowing that true beauty isnt 'perfection'. Do it for yourself, not to live up to what someone else says you should look like or who you should be... Its about self esteem and realizing that as individuals women and men are beautiful creatures no matter what our shape, size or age. love yourself for who you are.. at this very moment.. in all your wonderous glory
Im sure this blog will ruffle a few female feathers out there and if it does...maybe it hits a little too close to home for your comfort *wink* Its just that Im sick to death of hearing females whine and bitch.... so in the spirit of feminism I have to call it like I see it!!!
Okay so here we go....Ladies...got newsflash for ya... its 2008!!!! The day of the simpering, wimpy, helpless female is over. We can now own property, drive a car and guess what... we can even VOTE!!!! Its TRUEEE we cannn!!!!!! Time to pull your heads out of those too tight thongs, let the blood back into the brain and learn how to stand on your own 2 feet. The days of "needing" a man to take care of you should be abolished. A woman SHOULD know how to fend for herself if need be. Come on now, acting like you are an invalid, moron or skank hoe, because you have a set of tits is ridiculous. I think every teenage girl should be made to take courses in auto-mechanics, finances, self defense and a self esteem as part of her education.
Nothing wads my panties more, than hearing a woman whine..."but I dont know how to do thatttttt...*makes puking noises* Its the age of the internet...you can learn how to do anything. Forget about the pretty french manicure...grab the jack and change the damned tire its not that friggin hard....
Or those infamous words that are guarenteed to make me crazy...... "I cant do that cuz "HE" wont LET me".... *head spins around, exorcist style* The days when women are considered "chattel or "property are long gone, despite what some of the more neanderthal men might think. Ummm..helloooooo....NO ONE owns anyone anymore so you can damned sure start thinking for yourself.
And for the female who uses tits and ass to get her own way or tease guys into doing what she wants them to. Heres an idea... why dont you use your god given brains or be up front about what you want? If you wanna fuck... then by all means... just say it for God/s sake, save yourself some time, trouble and heartache by NOT playing sexual mind games.
Guess what ladies... most guys ARENT that dumb... If you think you are tricking them into doing something you want them to do because you are just SOOOOO irresistable...you are in for a surprise. IF by the SLIM chance.....they do actually DO what you want, you can bet your pretty pink panties on the fact that they have some kind of motive...... so in the end...you are gonna end up losing anyway. Personally I dont think there is a man out there who can or will respect a woman who acts like trailor park trash or an "internet whore" to get what she wants or to gain attention. And if your inherent nature is one of sexuality... by all means, express who you are, but dont act stupid or sleazy because you think it will impress the boys or get you what you want. It will backfire on you in a New York minute and its your own fault for underestimating the male mentality.... so you shouldnt complain because you cant keep a man or guys dont take you seriously.
Dont get me wrong.... if your partner enjoys doing things for you and you dont mind letting him...then by all means, let him. Theres nothing more romantic than a man who still opens doors for ladies and who is protective, giving and caring. Its wonderful to have a man who enjoys doing things for you. Dont take advantage of that by exploiting the fact you are female and/or not giving him the appreciation he deserves. Be a strong woman..... dont "let" him take care of you because you arent capable of doing it yourself or worse yet.....stay in a relationship because you are too frightened or lazy to handle your own business. Im sick of seeing women sit on their asses and do nothing while their household struggles to survive on one income, when they are perfectly capable of putting down the Ho Ho's and the remote control to haul their lazy asses out and get a part time job.
In relationships taking your partners wishes and feelings into consideration is always a good thing when making decisions, because compromise and respect are the foundations for a good relationship. But dont base every decision in your life on whether or not he is going to be displeased or put your own dreams and desires on hold because your man "doesnt approve." There is always a way to work things out so both you and he can be satisfied and happy and STILL follow your own heart. And a good man will know that and respect you for expressing your needs/desires. If he really loves you, he will support you and do everything in his power to help you realize your dreams.
Being an independent female doesnt mean you have to lose your femininity or act like a man..... You can be a strong woman and STILL be and act like a "lady". By working to combine femininity and independence you DONT have to be the sterotypical "liberated" ball busting type of female that is assiociated with modern women libbers. By the same token: We certainly dont have to prove the reputation of being the "weaker" sex either.... DAMN ladies...lets STOP VALIDATING the sterotype BY NOT acting like helpless, brainless sheep whose only assets lie between our thighs. Its time to start relying on our own individual talents and brains. Maybe if we start by respecting ourselves and holding up our end of the relationships, men would be more willing to treat us the way we deserve to be treated.
Okay ladies.... check this out.... if you are really that dependent on a male...maybe you should go christian and join up with this group, they are about as anti-feminist as you can get *grin*

PS...And just for the record... I honestly dont consider myself a hard core feminist... some of my old fashioned ideas on man/woman relationships got me banned from the "she woman-man haters" club AGESSS ago... *wink* but my point in this is that....even myself at my most "girly girl" am perfectly capable of taking care of myself w/o needing to rely on a man to do it for me....and in reality....I honestly believe that EVERY female out there should be able to stand on her own 2 feet and if she cant...then she damn sure should learn how.....
