Don't hate me because i'm beautiful

One of my favorite classes in college was "Men and Masculinities." Sure, i decided to take it because it was the only class left and i thought, hey maybe there will be some cuties! Well, it was more gay men than not and it actually turned out to be really entertaining. We had lengthy discussions of the male species, and even discussed the role of females in society.
As women, yes we can vote, yes we're doing more in the work force-but our role in society has not changed. A girl is to constantly look her best so that she can hook the best man she possibly can. Because, afterall, the man is the one who will be providing us with funding and protection during our marraige. I always thought, why are pretty girls with ugly guys? Why is there an Average Joe but no Average Jane? A woman's goal is to compete in order to find the man she wants-so why shouldn't these men settle with the prettiest they can find without having to clean up much themselves?
This is why so many girls hate each other, this is where all the cattyness comes from-we're in constant competition in order to one up each other, to look prettier, to land the man!
This entire thought process stems from the amount of times I've been called "whore" or "slut" (which was not only two times in one saturday, but throughout the past few years quite a bit as well). There's two types of girls in society: the "good" girl, who is sweet, passive, obeys her man, and doesn't know too much about sex so she won't be doing any cheating. Then there's the "bad" girl, the whore who knows too much about sex and loves it. No man wants to end up with the "bad" girl, because he's ultimately supposed to be the ruler over his woman.

Well you are who you, whether that may whorey, naive, or somewhere in between. But what is so wrong about being any of them? Because I like making out with boys, because I'm not constantly in a monotonous relationship-I am labeled a whore. Well i say: SO WHAT! To all those girls that think it's offending me: it's not. Start doing yourself a favor and stop putting women in a place where we're condemned for ever thinking or acting the way a man does. If we want sex, let us have sex! Don't feed into this box we are supposed to conform to which is favorable mainly to the male species.
And for all the assholes that are punk rock and think they're out to change society's views and the world - i've heard it more from you than anyone else. Expand your mind more than your tattoo and record collection.

"Well you are who you, whether that may whorey, naive, or somewhere in between." I know you may think you're being slick, but I really don't appreciate my private life being dragged into the public arena like this. I'll cut you....
