What's a girl to do?

September 17th 2006 09:00
What are these glossy bibles that condemn anorexia whilst its papers flip infatuated with the skeletal form? These ALMIGHTY papers that celebrate celebrities only when they manage to team a crisp high collar with oversized (fly eye) frames for a "preppy chic" look that will heat up ones wardrobe for the next five minutes? What is this explosion of colour, fashion, fame and SEX, celebrating female liberty and applauding female talent as well as describing precisely "HOW TO…Give Great Head"? The modern woman must strive for super powers…and "having it all" is her kryptonite. She must be beautiful, or at least tweezed, she must work if to avoid stay-at-home hate, however also not neglect her children for fear of power-suit-bitch status, and most of all never abandon her domestic responsibilities. Women are taking the good with the bad… the Man said sure you can enter our world of flawed and unreliable technology, sit behind a desk all day and lets face it, pretend you know what you're doing until the boss is fooled into thinking you are indispensable, get a raise…still steal a stapler, and one day head out for your final and very looooong coffee break…then sit at another desk with a better chair….BUT… you will also still prepare the meals and be blamed for raising the rate of obesity if you cop out and by take-away, and lest we forget the cleaning, shopping and socializing….this results in the modern woman sitting at her desk frustrated with the devil re-incarnate staring at her, named Excel, wondering whether she turned the oven off or not, trying to recall actions before turning oven off or not, trying to recall insurance policy and climb the corporate ladder …when she receives a call that little Johnny is in sick bay and could you please come to the school straight away. I mean really…What's a girl to do?...paint her nails?

I have always been against women demanding equal rights as men in this world. Women should demand MORE rights than men, they should demand to be paid wages, full tax free wages if they are raising kids, they should be demanding the best health care available. What is all this bull about equal rights? I mean its obvious women have it more tough than men if they expected to hold down two jobs while simulataneously raising a family.


As for the skinny/fat and appearance thing, well if your looking for someone who you wan't to marry for instnace, your probably not looking for someone who will judge you by appearance so harshly
