Favouritism, Sexism, Egoism - Reality

Fifth year has opened up my eyes to the interpersonal relationship dynamic that runs the world. Its not what you know, its who you know and whose ass youve kissed. (or who youve screwed) Confidence is translated into knowing shit about something. So faking it goes a long way.

Men and women are so different. Men have been trained to believe the world is thiers for the taking. Im in a group with a serious alpha male type and watching him is a lesson in gender differences. He does what he has to do without thought to if the animal is feeling pain or discomfort. Caution is thrown to the wind.

Men are soo much more aggressive than females. Unfortunaely that is translated into competence. SO a woman that is hesitant is seen as less confident than a male.

Men arent taught in conflict resolution. I have seen women back down just to keep the peace. Its a foreign concept to most guys.

A woman is trained to be nuturing and think of others before themselves. With most guys its about me, me, me. And these "male" qualities are the qualities that are required to succeed in life.

As easy as it would be to think of this as feminist mumbo jumbo, its a reality. Im seeing it everyday at school. People talking shit about sending a woman to do a man's work.

ANd even though women have been taking over universities for however long they still get paid less than men to do the same job.

So even though my parents have told me that the world is mine, and if i work to the best of my ability I will succeed in life, the reality is that the person thats more of an egomaniac, less considerate and more "male" is more likely to succeed in this world than i am.

And at the end of it all

Its still damned good to be a girl

end rant
feels better

now for a fantastic friday

It's Like That Y'all - Feelin SO Hot Tamale

Im craving a Girls Night like nobody's business. Ideally I'd love to have the B Girls here so we can go out and do what the hell we want to (cause we can);)

But either way, this friday night I want to get the cutest top, put on my sexiest heels and the tightest jeans and go somewhere to shake my groove thing like the wanton sex goddess I know I am.

RAAR

Unfortunately, the reality is I'll be home curled up with a romance novel, avoiding studying by doing a whole bunch of nothing.

we will see....
Im going cute top shopping just in case though

loving that new Mariah song

I came to have a party
Open up the Bacardi
Feeling soooo hot tamale

Another Weekend Over
This weekend was really nice. Almost complete solitude. Every time I have weekends like this I discover more and more how self sufficient I am. I love it when I have the house to myself.

*ahem*


My First Love

I havent seen that guy in years. He called me up out of the blue. He's coming home to visit this summer and I cant wait to see him again. He's not the pseudo bad boy/ ghetto yout' that I happened to fall in love with. He's all matured and responsible and taking his education and life seriously.

hmmmm

this should be interesting
