girls

i'm just one of the girl's. you may think this is a strange statement, but wait until i explain. i'm not your average guy. sure, physically i resemble the average male, but internally i stray from the norm. i'm heterosexual, but i choose to behave differently than your average testosterone charged jock rapist asshole (which 80% of guys are, or would be if they had the chance) it is with these strange beliefs, and the actions that coincide with them, that i find myself in the situations that i do.

most of my friends are female, and the majority of my time is spent with the fairer sex. i see women as they are, not as how society and the media wants me too. i hang out with female human beings, not "women". there is a big difference. i was raised differnetly as a male, but i can, as everyone should be able to, relate to women. still, women do have strange behavoior which astounds me.

today i was hanging out with two of my friends. we decided to hook up with this kid chad for whatever. we were at one girl's house, and we were on our way to chad's. i don't know if it's strange or not, but my first impulse was to get my coat and leave. girl's are raised different though, and we still had a lot to do before our departure. the girl whose house we were at is emotionally entangled with chad. chad could not bear to see her without makeup, so she preceeded to coat her face with cosmetics. why? why do girl's do this? makeup is fucking dumb. i'm a believer in natural beauty, and i think that shit just covers it up. just because society tells you to pay extraordinary prices for makeup, and to put it on before you go out, doesn't mean you have to. it makes no sense. still, everyday women buy makeup, and continue to coat themselves with shit. i don't get it.

i am just one of the girl's, but there's some things i'll never figure out. i'm stuck in a limbo between sexes. i'm not a girl, and i can never be one (but that's okay because i don't want to be). i can't be your average guy either, because for some reason i think it's wrong to get girl's drunk and rape them (they like to do that in minnesota). i'm not saying that all guys are bad, but most of them are. it's okay, i'll just keep on keepin' on with my present choice of company, even if i do have to put up with their weird shit.
