Remember no one can make you feel inferior without your consent. Eleanor Roosevelt



Did you ever think that maybe YOU are the problem with sexism? I mean, did you ever take a look at yourself and think, 'geeze maybe blogging about feminist ideas and adding women's rights to my interests doesn't make me a feminist'?


I'm tired and annoyed( obviously) with these females complaining about oppression, inequality and feeling like they have to conform to unrealistic expectations, YET they;
-wear more makeup than some drag-queens
-shave all the hair off their body except that perma-died clump on their head
-tan frequently( cancer, who cares?)
-wear push up bras so much that their tits are strangling them...
can i go on? Thongs; Fake Eyelashes ; High Heels ; extensions

I'm sorry, but do those sound like things a woman would do if she wanted freedom from male dominance and subjugation? Or if she just wanted liberation and to be gone of the media's sexist portrayal of women?

You are not a feminist, you are part of the problem. You are a creation of the male fantasy and you will stay like that until you open your eyes and stop living to please the other sex.
You are a feminist oxymoron.

Last Night/This Mornings DREAM:
I've already told close family and friends that i am pregnant. I'm fine with it, and everyone else seems to me. I actually seem to find it humorous. But I am sitting at a dinner table with one of Josh's VERY Catholic relative ( she only exists in this dream ) and we are having an average conversation then I am bored and she starts asking me about the baby and this is what i collectively say, " Nope, not going to get the baby baptized- i mean, i could just wash him in the tub, same thing ( she is disgruntled )... Nah, I decided to keep it because I don't have enough money to have an abortion, if i did i would've just cut the little guy out ( I'm just saying this to get a reaction, and in my dream she's grasping the front-seem of her dainty blouse)... and you know, if he ends up getting sick I have no problem with Euthanasia!" She gasps, shakes her head and huff-puffs away. I laugh and rub my belly feeling accomplished and proud.

Is it sad that money makes me happy? Superficial? It's not the actual fact that I have money. It's that it means I'm closer to AUSTRALIA. I'm 3/5ths the way there, and it's all i can think about.
I hate the thought of going to work, but when i'm there it's exhilarating and challenging to have three tables of 8-12 at once. At times I look like a mad rabbit dashing from kitchen - computer - table - bar - bathroom ( because my bladder is pea sized ). That's what work was like last night for only a few hours, then the Pub became a desolate desert bar with the same faces from the nights and nights before.
There's times when i fantasize about ripping off my apron and storming out the front due to a shitty-tipper or like last night. Two 'high school'-self conscious-girls ( not women ) whispered and rolled their eyes as i approached their table, and as soon as i turned my back they giggled as if we were in grade 7 again. Young women are so catty and exude low self esteem; defensive and harsh. I'd take grabby, slutty men too old for me over these females in ostentatious style.

I'm looking for another job, preferably something in the office. Rachel is looking in to getting her mom to find me a job at Stantec. I'm going to look online too, but it's never failed to disappoint me yet! I need all this money because I just realized I can't put ALL my income into savings, Christmas is coming and even though i'm not buying people anything ( because this year i am fully disgusted by Christmas consumerism and how materialistic, artificial, and full of crap this 'christian holiday' has become) but i still need supplies.

I'm looking forward to the future and independence
