~So This Is Love~

                          Here in this blog, we support love.

And it doesn't matter what form it takes...

Because it's still love.

You can try to put a label on it....

                       But that won't make it any less real.

Real Love Needs No Labels.

Choose To Love.

A Girl Thing....

It was the week of our first debate tournament. Thrown by us. Coach asked us to give the kiddies a dress tutorial. When I asked you for your opinion, you responded with "I prefer girls in pantsuits because I think it puts them on level playing field with the guys." I about fell off my chair. At that moment I was ashamed to be a girl. Obviously, you have never been told that you couldn't do something as well because you were a girl. Me? I am damn proud to be a girl. I am proud to be a slightly feminine girl. I believe every girl should do the same thing successful guys do. Dress to LOOK good. That might mean a pantsuit. That might mean a dress. That might mean combat boots. Girls should use what they are given. You should not try to get on a level playing field by wearing pantsuits. You should demand that you are respected by the role that you play. If that means you are a housewife, own it. A business woman, own it. Even if you have a crewcut and work in an auotshop. Own the role that you play. THAT is putting yourself on the level playing field with "the guys" You think people do not notice when you are TRYING to put yourself on the same level by taking away your feminine charm? By making yourself look more and more plain? [If you are not feminine, then fine. I bet you look hella good in guys pants and oversized plaid shirts.]That was insulting, because I have been spending the past four years of my life working to get the same level of respect as a female authority figure. After you said that, I immediately went out and bought a suit, with a skirt instead of pants. I also bought 3 inch heels. Now, I will spend the rest of the year proving you wrong.
