So, last night at work two fellow male co-workers started discussing american women. One is from Italy, the other from Mexico. Italian man said, " I don't understand american women. They makes such embarrasments of themselves. They get soooo drunk, and make out with anybody. Why?"
Mexican man replies, "Dude. You gotta stick with European or Latina women. They have respect for themselves."
Italian man shakes his head. " Never have I seen so much ridiculously inappropriate and downright sluttiness. Don't women know they are better than us. They have the power. And when I see them act such ways; I am so disappointed and disgusted."
He looks at me wanting a response, something to clarify the constant oversexualized drunk american girl behavior he sees in every NY bar. What am I to say? I tell him not all women are like that, and that women are HUMAN. They can make mistakes, and maybe he shouldnt be putting women on some 'goddess' podium, where they can do no wrong. He nods in agreement, but continues to ask why american women behave such a way. It completely baffles him. I explain to him that women have a right to be sexual. Men can't be and arent the only ones who get ruled by their 'sex'.
But, this conversation botheres me. I can't lie. I've seen and done plenty of x-rated stuff all liquored up in public. However, in my defense, it's mostly women I do this with. I have fucked a girl in a bathroom, in an elevator and on top of a car....yes; im not kidding. And, they were all different women during completely different times in my life. I've never actually done anything like that with a man. Why? Im not sure. I've only taken a total stranger home once. To clarify; I mean someone I seriously just met that night. Did I feel like a ho? Hell no. I was going thru really bad heartbreak and I absolutely wanted anonymous sex. Somehow, I hoped this unknown man could fuck my pain away. And, did he? Not sure, but I felt more free. Was this because I claimed my sex or because I'm a victim of feminisim and MTV amalgamating? Now, dont get all huffy! I am a feminist. I always believe in the strength and equality of females. But, I believe that many girls have lost their way. Every commercial, music video, magazine screams at us to wear less, look flawless and get a man by any means necessary...because we NEED them. But, what we've forgotten is-They Need Us. We Need Eachother. In claiming our power, we are losing our power. We make it soooooo easy for men. Courting is dead. Now, it's a couple of drinks and a little bit of loving. They don't even have to try.
Some of you are gonna be offended and say I'm generalizing. And, yes, I am. I do know women who aren't like this, and fuck I envy them. I respect them. But, most of you can't deny the pornographic world that is creeping its way into our genders. All, I'm trying to say is...Ladies, make them work for it. There is nothing more sexy than a woman with confidence, self-respect, and mystery. However, if you wanna get yours-Make It Happen! It is your life. But, do it for a reason you feel good about. So, you can wake in the morning and bask in the "just got laid" euphoria without wanting to throw up on yourself.
