Today I walked into Del Taco for Taco Tuesday, and I see this banner in the middle of the store. The text is something like this 'We support the bold' 'To every '4' that landed a '10.' On the banner there is a stereotypical geek with curly hair and glasses, mouth shut, chin up, with one hand in his jacket pocket and one on a woman's waist. The '10' in question. She is wearing a sequined silver dress not exactly suitable for day time wear, her hair is flowing in true model fashion, and her lips are slightly parted and hips swayed out.

The message is clear. If you are a geek, there is still hope for you to 'land' a ten. After all you are still a man, and she is nothing but a woman, albeit a pretty one. And no matter dating her or wooing her, you are 'landing' her.

In other words, you own a beautiful woman.

Women, you are only valued for your beauty, men, you can judge and rate a woman based on your specific needs. Fantastic.


Sometimes I think I am crazy because these things bug me yet no one else seems to care. But then I know I'm not. I will not be 'landed' and I will not be rated on a scale of one to ten. I hate the way sexism is normal in our society. It makes me never want to go outside again, because when I do, I want to throw acid on people.

I am angry and I feel helpless because there is not much I can do. It fucking sucks.

It's official. Sarah Palin is not human. She wanted rape victims to pay for their own rape kits... OMFG. Who the hell raised her?? ALIENS. Sarah Palin is an alien. That's my decision and I am going to cry so hard if McCain/Palin are elected, and then I'm probably going to go crazy and move to another country. And then when I realize that country is as nuts as this one, I'm going to become a mermaid and live in international waters.

I beginning to strongly dislike modern culture. Today I made an english muffin for myself. The first one I made wasn't toasted enough, so I tried to make it crispier, then I burned it and I threw it away and made another one without a second thought. So much waste! At work we throw all the hangers away, we don't recycle. And then we have all these eco-friendly shirts and crap... So hypocritical, I hate big companies.

Also part of modern culture, gender socialization is driving me insane. At work I have people asking me about socks for toddlers. 'Are these for a boy or a girl?' ....? Socks?? You want to know if the SOCKS are gender specific? For like, a two year old? [Are you nuts?] And then it also cracks me up when people wont buy things when they're meant for 'girls' or 'boys'. This lady asked me about shoes 'are these boys shoes?' 'Well...they're underneath the other 'boy' stuff so I guess' 'Oh I don't want them then.' Also in the boys section there's a lot of black, grey, red, blue, green. Very basic colors. And shirts and pants that say 'footballer player' and crap about not wanting to do homework. Seriously? You think it's funny your kid refuses to do his homework? And the girls stuff, of course, says 'cutie' and stuff like that. If my store had their way, all girls would pretty and dumb, and all men would be football players, and also dumb. Ugh.

( gender, and sex, and stuff )

Anyway, I'm trying to reserve this skirt;


I think the print is GORGEOUS and it would compliment my very small lolita wardrobe nicely... I hope I can reserve it :\

Don't you think it's funny I just wrote about gender socialization and waste of resources yet I'd gladly pay for a very-gender-specific Japanese skirt that costs $200?

Hippocrit. :D

I was involved in a recent mini debate online about Palin being an irresponsible mother because she was choosing the Vice Presidency over taking care of her retarded child. What it boiled down to was me arguing she has resources, and a capable husband, to take care of the child, and the 'other side' stating something along the lines of 'women are more nurturing parents, biologically.' I used to be a slave to the biology game, and I don't discredit it at all, but I don't think judging and stereotyping a gender based on biology, or genetics, is correct.

( theorizing...maybe )

First off, I'd like to mention that I've struggled with being open about this topic. On one hand, I think it is important to spread the word that female masturbation is 'okay', and if I have to contribute to that cause by being open about it, then so be it!. [I also realize a lot of females are okay with it, but an equal amount are not, so thats why I am writing this and who I am referring to].

On the other hand, sex is something that is very personal to me, which is why I still abstain, etc. But since I am talking about masturbating, and this is for a good cause and all that... I guess it's okay :D

So now that that's out of the way, women and men treat sex differently. I don't care if you want to argue with me, that both sexes treat it the same, because they do not. For example, if a young girl is molested by a teacher, she is going to be horrified and have extreme mental trauma, if a young boy is molested by a [female] teacher part of him is going to be thinking 'fuck yeah' and the other part is going to be horrified and have extreme mental trauma. Or rather, rape, I know both a woman and a man who have been raped [although the girl will not call it rape, but in my opinion and every definition of the word, it was rape, or if you rather, it was date-rape]. The girl attempted to make a relationship out of it, not really knowing what to do, whereas the boy didn't really care and even continues to make jokes about it. Differences differences. Women and men also mature at different ages, women tend to mature quicker, I think this might be an attempt to catch up with man's rampant sexuality, but who knows.

Oh and this is just funny, thanks to http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Sex

"The common known sex position 3- (not to be confused with 69) is when a man opens up his anus and simultaneously shoves into it a sharp object, such as a knife, after which he will die. Another common sex position is 99 which happens when a pencil is shoved up one man's anus by his homosexual partner who then asks him to do the same, both end up dead sooner or later, that is unless you are immortal. A rare sex position is 6 where the poor man is left alone. Perhaps the rarest of all positions is the 9 where a woman cannot find a partner. There hasn't been a "9" reported in the last two decades, although it's rumored that one occurred with Hilary Clinton during Bill's first night at the Whitehouse. If you use SHARPIES, they work well also. Plus, They create a higher pleasure standard. The vibrating end of a toothbrush works best, If you are too poor to buy a dildo. Note: NOT THE END WITH BRISTLES. A more frequent position is the 96, usually performed amongst married couples, where both parties are lying in bed thinking the other's asleep and are secretly attempting to perform oral pleasures upon themselves. Another very common position is the "690", in which two people perform 69, and a very fat man lies in bed next to them and watches."

I LOLed at the last sentence.
