I seriously could never do that.

What is with women these days, throwing themselves at every passing guy and handing out favors like rice bags at a wedding?  Like seriously people, I’m not trying to be overly judgmental here, and God knows I’ve made mistakes of my own, but really?  Have some self-respect ladies.  People sometimes ask me why I don’t like Megan Fox.  It isn’t that I don’t like her, it’s that I don’t respect her because she doesn’t respect herself.  Yes, there is a trashy Hollywood, but there is a classy Hollywood.  Megan Fox ain’t it.  Marilyn Monroe is classy Hollywood.  Lindsey Lohan is not.  There is a classy way to flirt, and there is a trashy way to flirt.

The technicality lies within the attitude, and the manner of delivery.  You can say thousands of words a multitude of different ways, and each one implies an individual meaning.  In the same way, the purpose and motivation behind people’s actions implies things.  So why is it, that women have got it into their head that the only way they can catch a man is by throwing themselves at him (less than clothed, more often than not) and batting her eyelashes prettily at him?  Of course, a feminist could/would argue that this stereotype has been written and then reinforced my men – but don’t women confirm it on a daily basis?  It may have been that once upon a time, Caveman Sue decided to pretty up her hair and pretend that she twisted her ankle while picking berries, and since then society has deemed that a fragile woman is attractive.

However, that does not apply to all women.  Yes, some men are attracted to “weaker” women and others are drawn to women with charisma, ambition, and expectations.  There is no right or wrong neccesarily.  The problem comes when all women attempt to fit the perfect cookie-cutter mold of what they *think* that men want.  Which brings me to my next point – behavior.  Not only are the mentalities and ideas of many women jaded, but their actions are influenced by them.  Losing their self-respect and ceasing to demand treatment like the lady they are, women have resorted to basically playing dirty to get the man they want.  In doing this, women have put themselves in a far more dangerous position than they ever would have been had they not interefered.

No longer is there a such thing as an innocent smile, for a glance can be interpreted as a sultry invitation for later rendezvous.  This comes about because somewhere, women decided that sex was the only way to snare a man, to captivate him.  Ah, and so seduction overran & overruled sensibility.  Intelligence is replaced with ignorancy, and a refusal to engage a man in conversation.  Anyone who reads historical fiction will find the majority of the decent male characters in want of a companion who he may not only have as a friend, not only as a lover, but as someone who can share his life.  This is the basic equality of relationships since the beginning of time.

Women complain that men dominate them, discriminate against them.  They do nothing to aid this however, only entrapping themselves more in their reinforcement of the thought that there is only one way to get a man – the way he wants.  Hence, the men still have the control.  And so here we have it, women starting these habits early in high school.  They start innocently enough, bringing cupcakes to class, flirting in the halls, before the actions become more serious and it takes more to satisfy the boy’s appetite than a sugary confection.  Of course the girl gives in, thinking that as long as she can exercise her current behavior, she’ll continue to control him…right?  Wrong.  Instead the girl is locked into a vicious cycle that continues, for the boy will grow into a man who knows that she will never leave him.  Ladies and gentlemen?  I seriously could never do that.
