A house all to myself? Red wine that I am going to proceed to drink by myself straight out of the bottle? Any music I want as LOUD as I want? I love my family, but oh, I do appreciate being alone every now and then!
here are two phrases I don’t want to hear anymore:
1. “Real women are/have/like/do/weigh x.”
Well, if “real women” have curves then I must be a man. How nice of you to inform me that I must have switched genders without noticing. “Real women” are the women proud to call themselves women - no matter if fat, thin, curvy, cisgender, transgender, gay, straight, we’re all women. So no, I won’t gain weight just to “be a women”. In your opinion, what does this make me? A second-class woman? A guy? A dog? An alien? Fuck you. I don’t have curves and I feel very real.
2. “Men like some meat on your bones to hold onto.”
One: I am bisexual, so thanks for assuming all women like men. Two: Women should have the bodies that make *them* happy. Not for men, women, for society or for others, but for themselves. If a woman likes being skinny, why should she change for a man? A woman isn’t an object solely designed to please men and she doesn’t need to be considered desirable by them.
Thank you for the glares I received when I said we don’t carry Coke products. I felt sorry for your parents when one of you threw down your menu and yelled “Fine! I guess I won’t be eating ANYTHING!!” when I said we ran out of honey mustard.
I really enjoy the way Matt Smith says, “bowties are cool.” Makes me laugh every time.
Things I need to buy : Books, drafting/art supplies, electric blanket.
