Being a Woman

::rant::

I've been thinking about what's it like to be a woman. I say it's hard man! You've got certain expectations on how you should look, act, and speak. Many times I break it and I'm met with lots of protests. But you're like, Lori come on, it's the 21st century! Women have more rights then before, there's not that many expectations! Ha! I laugh at you. You raving liberals. It's not true, because still if I want to cut off my own got damn hair there's a problem or some slight negative comment about it. Or if I decided to wear a suit and a tie, I'd get many whispers behind my back. What the hell is she doing? Who cares if I cut it off? Honestly... Why should I have to go through the pain every single morning to comb it out, blow dry it, etc. It be nice and simple just to let it go.

Women will always be second class citizens. No matter how many protests or demonstrations, the majority still believes women are inferior beings who need protection, and it's everyone's fault, and many women don't do anything about it. There's a way women are suppose to look, cute with their little skirts and tight fitting shirts, or something like that... Can't blame it on the men. Too many feminists do that instead of looking at society as a whole. Women allow it, they set these norms to please because they believe that's what the men want. Who thought of the gurttle...women...who thought of foot binding...women... How can this be changed? :: shrug::

I think a woman in a business suit is so damn sexy, but that's because I have Venus in Capricorn.

Not just women but minorities as well. Difference will be used to justify other differences.

You know what they say, temporary absence makes the heart grow fonder. :P I haven't seen Caitlin myself in four days, but I am not too beat up about it. In fact, I've had more time to concentrate on some responsibilities (like pay bills) Finals are coming up for me. I have two more weeks left of school and then I'm out. My birthday is next sunday so I'm looking foward to getting more socks.
