Woah Leo....
(You have to imagine that I'm talking to you in a very calm manner. I'm not upset in the least bit. And I'm holding your hand the whole time, ok?)
Where did that come from, hun?? I've never had anything handed to me. I work very hard for everything I have. My mother has never once helped me out in any way and my boyfriend doesn't just pay my bills for me, I assure you. (And I am not a d***tease)

Now, personally (and I can only speak for myself) I have never complained about being cat-called or whistled at. In my previous post, I said I rather enjoyed it and would stop to talk if I had the time.

Also, I actually met my boyfriend by approaching him. I have no problem approaching men and asking for what I want, whatever that may be.

Furthermore, the first diamond I ever owned was bought by me. I don't expect my boyfriend to buy me diamonds. Just as I don't expect him to do anything for me. I can do things for myself. I buy my own clothes, pay my own bills, pay my own tuition, and buy my own medication. However, if I'm in a crunch, I ask my boyfriend to help me out. And he does the same. I expect that. I expect that he would ask for help if he needs if, just as I expect him to help me out when I need it.

I'm tempted to look up statistics on CEO's in America and find out exactly how many are men versus how many are women. Though I'm not certain, I'm tempted to say it is quite slanted in favor of the men. And I'm sure it isn't because men are smarter. I'm sure it's because of the glass ceiling.

Funny, my friend and I were having a discussion just yesterday. What if we awoke to find that we were men. I said it would be horrible. I couldn't flirt my way into a bar. I couldn't flirt to get what I want. I couldn't wear makeup and be girlie. My whole identity is based upon being flirty and girlie and I wouldn't change that for anything. But, I don't torture men. And I don't use sex as a weapon. I would much rather have true love and affection than any diamond that some man could give me. But, I don't see true love anywhere around. So, I'll continue in my "evil" ways until then. But, if you could be so kind as to point me in the right direction, I sure would appreciate it!
