Having a vagina is hard.
December 19th 2006 04:26
Don't let anyone else tell you different.
Today, my dear sweet daughter lost yet another stick at school. :
igh:: Ok. We discuss the problem.
"Aislinn why did you lose another stick today?"
"Mommy, Emily wouldn't stop TALKING to me"
Instantly, I get all defensive
"Well did Emily lose a stick too?"
"Yes, she did"
Ok, feathers begin to unruffle.
"What were you two talking about?"
"Mommy, I tried really hard to ignore her, but she kept saying "Aislinn turn around! Aislinn turn around, I need your help! Aislinn!" and she was like... kinda yelling at me Mom."
"I understand that Aislinn, but if you turn around, you KNOW you're going to lose a stick right?"
"Yeah"
"So, why did you turn around?"
"Because, I want to be you know.. helpful"
Gosh, break my heart why don't you kid.
The agreement when she loses a stick or is late for school, is that she has to sit in her room all night. Upon further discussion, and thinking about it today, this really IS an excessive punishment for a 6 yr old. After about an hour, she just drags her brother n there, and they have more fun in there than if she wasn't punished. So, I don't think I'll be doing that anymore.
But, that one line "I want to be helpful" THAT is such a GIRL trait. Not to say that boys don't want to be helpful, they do of course. But, girls have this never ending need to PLEASE other girls. Not all girls, but most. The hidden meaning behind "I want to be helpful" is " I don't want Emily to be mad at me and not be my friend anymore"
Girls can be cruel to one another. This is one thing I will never forget. I remember there is always ONE girl who's the leader, and one girl who gets picked on. I was the picked on girl. Then there are all the other girls who are to scared to stand up to the leader, so they joing in on picking you. The movie Mean Girls? Totally how school is. If you think that it was overdramatic, you are wrong. That is how it is.

I'll tell you what's hard. Having a cock and seeing a vagina. That's hard.
Both physically and mentally. I'm talking real HARD here.
You women. Seriously.
Girls can be cruel?
Wait until they grow up, turn into women and get their own blogsite. They'll call it something like Furiousbits just to drive men who love wild animal sex with a woman's furious bits (inside of outside) crazy. That's when the real cruelty starts. That's when they start putting posts up with the words 'vagina' and 'hard' in the same sentence. What next? A post entitled having a beautiful cunt is hard?
You women. Seriously.
This is one thing you'll never forget?
Give me a break. From the first moment I laid eyes on a female vagina (and other close relatives of the Vagina species, family, whatever ... like cousin Clitora, and uncle G-Spot), I have never been able to erase that image from my memory. And you'll never forget it? Give me a break. Put some decent pics up when you post something like this. Otherwise I will forget.
Where is the vag? All this talk about vag, but no vag. Is this some writers sick inverse dream of show-don't-tell?
Overdramatic?
How can you use that word in a post about the female vagina? Try melodramatic. Try just fucking pure drama. Just drama itself. Have you even gone to a theatre to see a drama only to find that the theatre is closed? That's drama.
By the way, what the fuck was Emily doing with a stick? Is she a vagina beater or something?
I just didn't get a fucking word of this post.
Loved the title but.

I found Sandi first.
I am not following you.
Hello Sandi...
About time I left a comment instead of just laughing hysterically and rendering myself incapable of doing anything else but marvel at the power of your words...I run the gamut of emotions...
The way you write...Lawd lady...as I said in my reply comment to you on my post..."hell to the nah"...when I read the post you say this on...wow...I don't know why but I can hear you say this and damn Woman...there are so many situations when only this is appropriate.
And I hope you don't mind but I have appropriated it.
It's a very powerful axiom.
It's not having a vagina that's hard (insert Homer. hmmm should have written cue Homer...), it's empowering it that is.
"I have a vagina so you think I'm meek?"
HELL TO THE NAH.

Devil. Stop following me around all over the place.
Apologies again Sandi. I'll visit again, when Devil is not here. (after I've deleted the [hundreds of] sicko professions of her possessive adoration of me she PMs me with constantly) ...
