Infringing On Their Right To "Choice"

This is the same weirdness, spewing the same wishy-washy crap that all choices are equally valid, and that all choices have equal merit.

Only now it has grown to morbidly obese, grotesque proportions.  It is now gross, corpulent, like a sewer monster that feeds on the city's anger and malevolence. (Ghostbusters II)

The plain fact is that there is no way that a girl who was raised right and is fully aware of the options available to them, would ever choose this.  No boy would, either, for that matter.  All throughout history, the only time anyone would do this was if they were abandoned, abused, and had nowhere left to go.  It was borne out of extreme desperation and panic, the bottom of the barrel, out of shame of poverty and nothing else.

All throughout history, women who were forced to do this, did this because they were trapped.  And now, what?  Is this supposed to be an homage to them or something??

Perhaps these young ladies need a history lesson.  All throughout human history, women have been demeaned, degraded, reduced to their mere body parts, denigrated to being far less than the sum of their parts.  This has been done through prostttt, through selling wo as chattel, through sessss slaves, through selling children -- both boys and girls -- as __.

And now this is being hailed as the next wave of empowerment??  Seriously, what the hell is wrong with people?

This is caused by extreme ignorance.  This reveals an extreme lack of knowledge of history.  And believe it or not, it is also an extreme lack of knowledge of current goings-on in the world today.  These young ladies evidently need a current-events/social-studies lesson as well.  
Unfortunately slavery still exists in many permutations.

The plain fact is that emotionally healthy and stable people do not do this.  Let us consider an analogy.  Would anyone declare that a group of grown people who have severe Down’s syndrome should simply be set free, turned out, and be allowed to do whatever they want?  Left to fend for themselves out there in the cold cruel world.
"No."
Well, why not?  They are adults, after all.
"But they are not mentally healthy."
What makes you think so?  They are of legal age as adults, they have the right to make their own decisions.
"But they are not mentally aware... they do not have true sentience.  And it would be socially immoral and irresponsible of us to leave them to their own faculties when they are clearly not capable of taking care of themselves as consciously complete adults."
What makes you think so?  They are capable of making their own decisions.  They can choose what to have for dinner -- ice cream.  They can choose what they want to do with their lives -- be a clown and make balloon animals.  A lot of them might be capable of living alone and taking care of themselves.
"That’s ridiculous. Nobody who is fully mentally functional and capable would choose those options."

Exactly.

Grow Up For Real

Re:  the waking up in a stranger's dorm room not knowing what happened the night before or with whom, the failed breathalyzer tests, the screwing around that is rampant and epidemic.  And these gullible, astonishingly stoopid young females are claiming that this is how they are trying to find their identity and this is them trying to grow up.  And they accuse anyone who has a problem with this morass of "not wanting them to grow up."

Oh, for Christ's sake.  Don't give me that crap.  Don't insult my intelligence with that crap.

Wrong.  I DO want you to grow up.  I want you to learn responsibility for your life.  Learn how to manage checking and savings accounts.  Get a college education, get a job.  Realize that you will have a future life beyond the here and now, and you need to prepare for it.  Learn to respect yourself.

I was in the college library and I was staring at the cover of "Ms." magazine.  Well, half that and half staring off into space.  And in a hale and blaze, I realized why all these silly little females were engaging in all that self-destructive behavior.  The binge drinking, drunkenness, the drug abuse, the tattoos, the piercings in very delicate sensitive personal private places.

As long as we're on the subject of tattoos.  What is up with all these "butt tattoos," which is what I have monikered them, popping up on young females that evidently want to draw the whole entire world's attention to the top of their butt cracks?  Do they think they are challenging society's pre-conceived notions of women... by getting tattoos in personal private places?

Because I'm seeing these popping up all over the place nowadays.  Not that I am actively looking for them; I will be just innocuously minding my own business perhaps browsing through a sale rack at a clothing boutique, and I will happen to glance to the right -- and there will inevitably be but a "butt tattoo" staring me in the face.  They are kind of hard not to notice -- the females call attention to these tattoos by wearing reeeeeeaaaaly low "show-your-butt" jeans in tandem with reeeeeaaally high short too-small shirts.  I have managed to keep my shocked shrieking to a minimal decibel level.

In one of my classes, this one girl who is not particularly svelte happened to sit in front of me a couple times.  And every time I looked up from my notebook to look at the Prof and the chalkboard at the front of the room, that damn thing will ambush my line of vision.  Good god, man, it's like getting lemon juice squirted in the eye every time I look up from my books.  I try to keep the outward expression of cringing down to a minimum.

Mercifully the weather is getting a little colder and I make an effort not to sit behind her, so I do not see it as often now.  But I feel sorry for her future classmates in the spring semester.  Actually to be honest, her male classmates probably enjoy it.  And let's be even more honest -- that was probably her aspiration -- to please males and gain their approval by sexually objectify herself.  Let me be brutally honest yet again -- I am surprised she's even in this class.

Back to seriousness.  So this is what you think construes grown-up behavior?  They are under the impression that this is how grown-ups behave.

They don't much care that their rebellion, as it were, is dangerous and possibly deadly.  Blood alcohol poisoning, fatal car crash, the risk of drunken rape.  Stranger than that is, they don't even realize that this is not grown-up behavior in the first place.  They think that this delinquent mess is the entirety of being grown-up.

An average human lifetime follows thusly:

Childhood -- Rebellious adolescence -- Boring responsible adult phase
                                      ^
Wild teenager types do not realize that a stage of psychosocial development exists beyond this point, which is their current stage.  They truly seem to be locked in a worldview that only two stages of life exist-- childhood and rebellion.  They have reached the later one, rebellion, so they think they have achieved adulthood.

This is all because they are not *truly* grown-up.  I have finally figured out why teenagers think that drinking, drugs, promiscuity, general stupid irresponsible rebellion that only harms them and has no other outcome.  (I remember seeing that stoopid ms magazine cover and suddenly sprung from this theory.)  They think that this constitutes adult behavior.  Teenagers rebel against their parents and challenge their parents' authority, rules, anc control over the teenagers' lives.  Whatever parents tell teenagers not to do, like sneaking out late at night, going to drunken parties, getting drunk,

They think that simply by dint of questioning some authority figure in their lives, this automatically makes them grown-up and mature.  They think that breaking the rules,

Never mind the fact that the rules exist for good reason.  Parents don’t set rules for their children just to ruin the kids' lives and prevent them from having any fun.  Parents set rules because they would like to avoid having to encounter their child bearing a toe tag and having to identify the body at the scene of a drunken car crash or at the morgue.

Never mind the fact that this behavior is self-destructive, dangerous, etc.  The teenagers are questioning authority, and they think that is all that is required for the honor of being considered grown-up and responsible.  They think this is the extent of expectations that constitutes being a grown-up.

And just totally cast out of your mind the fact that teenagers are not grown-up in the least.  They do not take care of their own finances or bills, they do not manage their own money, they do not cook their own food, they do not run their own households.  They would have no idea what to do if their parents ever agreed with the teenagers and truly let the teenagers "run their own lives," as is the usual insufferable request from said adolescents.

I finally figured out that this is the sort of thing that un-grown up teenagers think is mature and adult.  <They> think that it is grown up behavior.

They don't know that there is a world beyond their immediate gratification -- because they are too shortsighted to see this.  They do not seem to realize that binge drinking and letting complete strangers with electric needles near private anatomy parts -- are not skills that will serve them well in the future.  They are so shallow in their vision that they don't realize that frat hos chanting "chug-chug-chug" at a job interview probably won't get them that job.  I don't imagine there are a lot of banks that view shooting heroin as a good reference on a mortgage application.  The fact that they do not realize any of this -- proves that they are not grown-up.

They think that screwing around and destroying one's medical health are emblems of growing up.  They seem defiantly obtuse to the fact that this incredibly narrow worldview is in fact point-blank-evidence that they are not grown-up.

They think all this -- precisely because they are NOT grownup.  They are not truly intelligent, reasonable, or responsible.  They are not truly rational or logical.  This is the sort of behavior that non-grownups, adolescents, think is mature grown-up behavior.  Real adults know that in truth it is destructive, damaging, and irresponsible.

Real adults know that in truth it is destructive, damaging, and irresponsible.

The Femininity-Inferiority-Complex

It has come to my mildly perplexing realization that I do not really understand how a lot of females think.  That is why it has taken me this long to figure out why the hell so many females in the mass media keep wanting to disrobe at all times no matter what the occasion.  I was staring at the cover of a celebrity/Hollywood/etc. magazine featuring the hollywood's darling of a bucknaked kate hudson.  And then I blinked slowly.  And then I suddenly and finally understood why females do this crap.  First of all, they are not using the correct definition of the word "empowering," which I have covered extensively.

You have heard of the stereotypical hyper-masculine exaggerated male that actually secretly has an inferiority complex?

He is secretly ashamed because he thinks he is not masculine enough?  Therefore he overcompensates and tries too hard to focus on outward appearances.  He is insecure in his masculinity, so the only way he knows to remedy this is to prove furiously to everyone *else* that he is unquestionably macho.

He is frantic and worried that someone might stumble upon the truth.  So in an effort to squelch the hesitancy that might crop up in anyone’s mind that he might be less than super-dooper tough,
After all, as long as he can convince everyone else that he is masculine, at least his public image is intact.

All this vehement nakedness in pop culture is basically the female equivalent.

Females are constantly assailed with accusations from the media that they do not have “body confidence.”  They are relentlessly beaten in the head with the idea that they have eating disorders.  ...That they are “ashamed of their bodies” if they are not exhibitionists with all their private parts on full unabashed display at all times.  So in a desperate ploy to prove the media and “society” wrong, they resort to this.

The females are too paranoid that someone might uncover their inner turmoil.  So they overcompensate with this exaggerated display.  This is an effort to quell, nay, crush the uncertainty possibility that they are not fully body-confidenced.  After all, as long as they can convince everyone else they are sexy and comfortable with their sexiness, their outward public impression is intact.

Do not interpret my comprehension of that self-trivializing behavior as if I am okay with it.  Here is an odd analogy, but you know that Sneaker Pimps song, "six underground."  There is a line that is as follows, "Don't think that 'cause I understand I care."

However, this is still quite a pathetic excuse, and I'm not buying it.  I’ve been bombarded by the exact same media messages every day, and I managed not to crumble like a stale cookie.  I stated the fact that it was not true, and I told them to bugger off.  I made my case and stood my ground.

Weird Inconsistency In "Art"

Here is another weird inconsistency regarding art as compared to other categories of entertainment, music, literature, poetry, prose, etc.

There is a weird consensus amongst pop culture that noone is allowed to question what they are told is pimped out at the public as "art."  Ever everever.

We are not allowed to discuss content.  We are not allowed to discuss the obvious, or lack thereof, evidence of genuine discernible *talent.*  "Oh you're so closed-minded, you just don't understand it."

We are not allowed to discuss the personal preferences -- and very legitimate topic -- of taste.  Mention the words ""tasteful" or "palatable," and they scream that you are being judgmental and closed-minded, that taste has absolutely nothing to do with art; who are you to decide what is and isn't appropriate; how dare you try to tell the artist what they can and can't charge the public audience ten bucks on Tuesdays to see, ad nauseum.

Like Thomas Kinkade just a few short years ago.  He has gorgeous paintings of cottages and cabins in the countryside.  They are cute and cozy and comfy and fill you with feelings of warm fuzzballs all inside.  I see one and I crave a cup of hot cocoa.

Then, all these self-proclaimed temperamental artiste types were saying, "he is a sellout, ohhhhh,” caterwauling, “he is so popular with the mainstream so he could not POSSIBLY have any genuine talent.  Plus look how happy peppy perky his art is, hah!  That is not possibly reeaaal art, reaaaall art must portray despair and suffering, it simply mussst portray struggle, it must reach deep into the caverns of the soul and disembowel the viewer!!  No ifs, ands, or buts!!"

I wonder if they were just jealous that Thomas Kinkade did genuinely become successful as an artist.  He managed to appeal to people who like happy, cozy, comfy things, which is obviously a lot of people.

And the guy has actual talent.  That's the part these sniffing haughty "disapproval" types always gloss over.  Have you seen one of his paintings?  They are gorgeous.  Exquisite detailing, it is obvious he labored over it painstakingly.  He managed to make a decent living off this art.  He probably is able to support this family with food and not food stamps; he was probably able to put his kids through college, etc.

I wonder if the rest of the self-proclaimed “realll” artists were just bitter, jealous, and resentful.  A lot of them are like this.  They rail against mainstream movies, they sniff haughty derision at happy hollywood endings.  They think they are automatically "better," i.e. more intellectual, more profound, more informed, if they only like entertainment that is miserable.

They also rail against kindness and sincerity.  They screech and scream, "oh that’s just so fake, oh the mainstream cheerleader and football types are just putting on a facade, oh their public image is so contrived and shallow, whereas I am so very honest and genuine and deep, I don't hide who I am, I don't carefully cultivate a public image at all.""

And then you have the notorious exhibit in NYC to which Rudy Giuliani cut off taxpayer funding.  (Agguhh, gag, I've seen pictures of it, and I flatly refuse to acknowledge it as art.  That's because it isn't.)  I am ever grateful to Mayor Giuliani for doing that, even thoo I don't live in NYC.  These people think that because they slapped the label "art" on whatever they vomited out, they can get away with anything?  Frankly, they seem rather mentally ill.

What Is Even Worse Is When Females Treat Themselves Like Pieces Of Meat

It is already bad enough that all over the entire frickin world males abuse and beat down women and treat them like sh!t. worse than sh!t. Like the stuff that sh!t wipes off its shoe and says ew gross at. Forced "prostitution," r--ing children in Thailand.  Child "brides," again r--ing children, in Africa.  Islamofascists r--ing and otherwise abusing women and children.  So-called legalized prostitution in Amsterdam.

What is even worse is when females treat themselves like pieces of meat. Like some sort of life form lower than pieces of meat.  Strippers, prn, The girls gone wilds, the b----es and h-s in gangsta rap videos, the hip-hop lifestyle (huh?), paris hiltons.  Who are actually stupid enough to believe some bullshit line about how taking off your clothes and showing your genital region to complete strangers is liberating and empowering.  They are convinced they made the conscious, informed choice to do this themselves.

Back in the 1990s, there was not much objectification of women.  At least not in my entertainment circles.  It sure as hell was not mainstream and routine.  There were supermodels on the catwalk that starved themselves... and that was it.  That was the extent of reducing women to sex objects or property.  Honestly I was never under the belief that males somehow "made" women do this.  Those females did this to themselves.  I still feel that way.

But this latest rehash is much, much worse than that.  This could not possibly be just the females inflicting this onto themselves.

It is the sickening convergence of everything misogynistic in this world.  It is the treatment of women like trash plus it is the sexual objectification of women -- all snowballed into a horrific runaway train.  It is a system of glorifying violence and other abuse against women.

Jennifer Lopez is supposedly hailed as being great because she is bringing multiculturalism and Latinos to hollywood.  Are you kidding me?? That is a sick, mirthless joke.  This is an extreme insult to real-life Latina women.  Jennifer Lopez is a grotesque parody of Latina women.  She has no respect for herself, she has no dignity, she has no grace.

I see also out in public, in the malls, in grocery stores, real human girls cheapening themselves, demeaning themselves, kowtowing to this mess.  Wearing those hoochie shoes, with a really small mini skirt, wearing backless halter tops.  I never imagined I would ever be writing a turn of phrase such as that.

I'm not even going to give them the dignity of calling them girls or women.  This is because you see, those terms imply human beings.  The above-mentioned specimens, on the other hand, might be female, but we don't know yet female what.  I cannot turn on the effing television or the computer without seeing this 3hi+ all over the place. I have resigned myself to watching only CNN, the six o' clock news, and Nickelodeon.

In my eyes gangsta rappers and all of them are in the same class as criminals, all low-life scum, the lot of them. Ugh. I can't believe that it's so widespread, pandemic, epidemic, that I feel a responsibility to actively state that this is NOT what feminism is.  A lawn overgrowth like bacteria in a Petri dish, a fungus mold mildew infestation.

Why in the world are you so adamant, aggravating, like enthusiastic in a violent manner, to show everyone your urogenital region?

Maybe They Are in fact Afraid Of Revealing Something.  Something big.  Well, it might not be so big, it might be merely adequate-sized, or simply pinky-sized.

Are you in fact a male that had a transsexual operation?  And now you are scared to death that someone might get to wondering about whether or not your pelvic region is homegrown?  And so therefore, in efforts to combat [stave off]]] any suspicion with a preemptive strike, are you launching these measures?
And is that where this deep-seated need to prove that you have female genitals, originates?

And so you are shoving this down everyone's eyes, “loookkk loookkk at me!!!  Looookkk looookkkkk at my vulva!!!!  i am completely 100% female and i can prove ittttt!!!!!”

Are you secretly insecure about the fact that you are not genetically female?  And so you are trying too hard to prove to everybody ELSE that you are female.  By showing the public your genitals, this is proof positive that your phenotype resembles a person with double-X chromosomes.

In the vain hopes that if you insist and beat people over the head with it, maul them on the head with a hammer, they will then be convinced enough, and they will never ever, ever question your gender orientation.  Are you trying to ensure they will not discover your secret?  That you are in fact secretly used to be a man?  This is little more than the female equivalent of that old hackney, of a flasher in a trench coat, lurking around dark alleys and corners of buildings, slithering up to innocent, unsuspecting pedestrians, and causing them to go blind.

Not Particularly Enlightened

Just how sick is society?  To what lengths will society go to degrade and demean stupid girls?  To what extent will society go to treat girls like pieces of meat?

I saw in a few different magazines, something about pole stripping classes that girls take for cardio fitness.

What??  Stripping for exercise??  What happened to running and listening to a Walkman?  What happened to normal groups sports like basketball and soccer?  What happened to regular old aerobics??

Britney Spears is pretty much doing stripping moves on stage when she "sings" (if one can call that tone-deaf screeching "singing.").  Let us not coat it in saccharine veils.  Just be honest.  Britney is getting as close to stripping as possible without actually taking off clothes to reveal g-strings and pasties and tassels.  Not that she's wearing a whole lot of clothes to begin with.

Remember when she first started out back in the late 1990s?  At least her dance moves and her synchronized dance moves with her back-up dancers had actual dancing.  They had some admittedly impressive dance moves that required some skill to pull off, and some creativity to think up.  But now she has degenerated into the predictable trashy, slutty, publicly lewd and naked behavior.


What in the hell is going on?  Why don't any of these females understand the concept of keeping private things private?  Why don't any of these females understand the concept of

Males are smart enough not to degrade, demean, or dehumanize themselves.  Why aren't females smart enough not to do this to themselves?  Men don't walk outdoors in public wearing the sort of non-skin-coverage that only your bedroom or bathroom should see.  Men don't display their genitalia on full public display at all hours of the night.  Men don't don poor excuses for clothing that show half their body parts.  Men don't make ludicrous, macabre jokes of their bodies.  Males don't go around disrespecting themselves, their own bodies, their own spirits, and then have the audacity to demand that other people still respect them.  So why are females having such trouble figuring this out?

In some other place, I saw a small blurb, I turned the page quickly in disgust, so I don't remember the exact wording, but there was a small picture accompanying it, which was of a girl being drunk, she was scrunched over, hair completely covering her face so the facial expression was blacked out, blocked out, prevented from being seen.

Why the hell would any girls see this as an activity they approach with curiosity, positive interest, something that explores their horizons, or any of that stuff?  This sort of shtt is being lauded and celebrated as "rebellion" against some sort of mythical oppressive, suppressive, strict "authority."  Rolling stone, tons of hollywood teen movies or whatever, so-called "college buddy" movies where they are really just aholes that demonstrate exactly why this country's education system is going down the toilet.

The stupid grs gone wdld crap.  The sort of mess that is now apparently prevalent during "spring break."  The general widespread, rampant, spreading like a bacterial lawn growth in a Petri dish.  Girls getting drunk and not caring at all about their personal safety....  Why in the world would anyone want to get drunk around strangers??

(Re the women mags preaching slttines.)  Where the hell are the generations of feminist education and the making sure people are not ignorant?  What the hell happened to the feminist scribes that were informed on the facts and the truth?

You want to be a drunken alcoholic toxic liver syndrome?  You want to be a druggie?  You want to be an mtv darling dragged through your own vomit?  Fine, that's your conscience, it's your life, and you alone are responsible for your own life.  Fine, that's your choice.   That's your decision.

But you DON'T get to call it feminism.

What used to be a noble pursuit of equality...  What used to be encouraging goals and accomplishments to better the human race... has now degenerated into a travesty, a sick macabre joke.  It is a grotesque parody.
