"Here's all you need to know about men and women: women are crazy, men are stupid. And the main reason why women are crazy is because men are stupid." ~George Carlin
There are some times in life where I see a case of pure idiocy and even without looking, know it's a male that's creating said idiocy. I don't know if it's obliviousness, ignorance, knowing the truth but refusing to acknowledge it, or just plain stupidity--but whatever it is, I'm afraid it's contagious, and I rather appreciate my intelligence...
As well as I am afraid of the Idiot Disease spreading like wildfire. I was in US1 today, and as usual, there's always one person (always a guy) who cuts in with something sexist.
Today's example was a real fun one:
Mr. K--my teacher--was helping us with essays about the Civil War. Being the *feminist* I am, I'm researching female spies and their role in the success of ending the war. It's quite fascinating, really, except as Mr. K was talking to me about one in particular, a female spy by the name of Belle Boyd, working for the Confederacy (the south; the north was the Union), when this jerk called Joe cuts in with:
"That's such a lie! Like women can ever do anything right? Whose stupid idea was it to send women into the war? Why aren't they at home, kissing babies and doing dishes?"
I swear to God, if I didn't have my friend Shayna holding me back, I might have clenched my jaw around Joe's neck or maybe pulled an arm out of his socket. What year does he think this is, 1950s? FYI, sweetheart, not all women are the "Ooh, I broke a nail!" or "Uh...what?" kind of girls that we are all branded to be.
I also resent the fact that so many guys I meet look at my *blonde* hair (it's STRAWBERRY BLONDE, IDIOTS!!!!) and start by telling me a dumb blonde joke.
Are you really going to introduce yourself by mocking me? I'm not a violent person, but get on my bad side and I will cut you down to the size of Flat Stanley using just words. Many people don't know this, but swearing and hurling useless and over-used insults at girls like, slut, whore, bitch, cunt, etc. isn't effective. Shocker! In all actuality, it just fuels my fire. You want to call me a bitch? Fine, go ahead. Call me a whore? Whatever, I'm a big girl, I'm wearing my big girl undies.
But what bothers me is that they just throw these words around like they weigh nothing. Did you know that not too long ago retard didn't mean 'weird' or 'stupid' but instead meant 'special' or 'learning-challenged'? It wasn't an insult. Of course, unless you're referring to a female dog, 'bitch' wasn't exactly ever a compliment.
But still.
And I reserve the right to say "Eat your heart out, bitches," because P!nk said that, and God help me, I love her and she's...well, let's face it. She's P!nk, and f**king awesome! Honestly, even though I'm not gay, I would totally date her if she was many years younger and not a celebrity.
But it is an insult to my intelligence when guys simply fling around these insults. Once, they might actually have been offensive. But now they're just words people throw at you when they're not creative enough to come up with a witty insult.
So in other words, they've lost their meaning.
The whole point of this post was mostly for venting power. It's true, though, I think. Call me biased, call me a Femi-Nazi, but I'm right. Most girls are extremely brainy. We know more than just the best places to buy shoes--much more. But since people--ahem, cough, cough, GUYS--don't give us the chance, I guess you'll never find out, will you?
Such a shame. You're truly missing out on so much.
