It's a rare man who can stand being around an intelligent woman, let alone married to her. - Bette Davis
It never ceases to amaze me how so many, assume that because you have what is considered a "pretty face" or "attractive body" that you have nothing between your ears! I can only speak for myself, and in doing that - I will say this... I am ANYTHING but stupid.
And here is the part where I bring the men into the conversation. (Please ensure that you have your BIG BOY undies on guys!) - Men seem to have this "socially conditioned" perspective that because women are emotionally driven creatures and the fact that we do NOT in ANY way think or act like you guys, that we are "air heads"?! I have one response to that - MWUHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Yes dears, we are VERY emotionally driven creatures. We allow our hearts to speak to us long before our mind ever does - and yes, we can react to situations with exaggerated expression - but neither of these attributes deem us stupid!
I am SO tired of seeing women being "played" by men, because they wore their heart on their sleeve and the men that revel in this kind of activity, mockingly laugh at those women because they were "easy"?! No - they weren't EASY! - They were simply real and they trusted you. That does not make them stupid or easy. That makes them authentic! If I were to point any fingers or ask any questions, it would have to be... why do you so many of you wear your dicks on your sleeves? Lol!
I am not generalizing here - as there are PLENTY of good men out there. Men who hold value to and appreciate the worth of the women in their lives - and hats off to all of them! But the reality of the matter is, there are so many MORE who are just all out there for themselves! Just as there are women precisely the same - but I am not lesbian, so that point is irrelevant in this context....
They "strut" around like the world owes them a favour - but guess what... it DOESN'T! - So best you tone it down a little there cowboys, because just in case you have not noticed yet... us ladies are doing it for ourselves these days and we HONESTLY don't have the time nor the inclination for self-absorbed ego-maniacs that treat us like we are brainless sex objects.
At the risk of being "burnt at the stake" right now - I am going to say this... For centuries, women have been "restrained" and restricted - men dominated the world. They were the providers, they were the hunters and us women were the gatherers. Women - for the most part, were never afforded the opportunity to be "the hunter" - and now that we are... things have changed dramatically.Women are now the hunters AND the gatherers! Yes boys, yes we are! - Don't worry - we still love and need you though, because changing light bulbs and tyres is boring haha! (Juuuust teasing)
I derail...point being... Women are AMAZING creatures, who encompass both beauty and brains! - ANY QUALITY MAN that lives with a GOOD WOMAN will testify to this truth! (Don't feel left out guys... you are also awesome.... but this post is NOT focused on you - ok! lol) I just wish... that more men saw AND appreciated the value AND INTELLIGENCE of the women in their lives - instead of treating them like... well - in the words of Shakira..."Starting to feel just a little abused - Like a coffee machine in an office."
“She was beautiful, but not like those girls in the magazines. She was beautiful, for the way she thought. She was beautiful, for the sparkle in her eyes when she talked about something she loved. She was beautiful, for her ability to make other people smile, even if she was sad. No, she wasn't beautiful for something as temporary as her looks. She was beautiful, deep down to her soul. She is beautiful.” ― F. Scott Fitzgerald
