One thing I've always attributed to men is a violent nature. Rage, anger, violence, all that shit exploding and taking out anyone within spitting distance.
Tonight I was reminded that women can be just as violent, aggressive, and unpredictable.
Thank you to all of you, male or female, who think before acting. The animals, children, and I appreciate it.

Why?
Songs by men are about sex. Songs by women are about love. in general obviously. In this we can see the basic difference between men (in general) and women (in general). I'd analyze it but I don't feel like it because its fuckin friday.

Californication
I like the show Californication. Strange right? Some guy wandering around fucking women...but I think there is more to it. Could be wrong.
I get so sad every time I watch it. I mean, their are humorous part and all, but it makes me sad. The guys is so obviously in love with his ex (p.s. im in season one so DONT BE A RUINER) but he still runs around fucking people. Cant quite figure it out yet; maybe revenge? Or just still has needs.
Either way, one thing I am sure of (partially because you can tell by the way he acts and partially because he's said it like a hundred times) the guy actually LIKEs women. Like to fuck them, yes. But he also just like them. As people.
So, in essence, he's my opposite sex, opposite mindset, twin. I'm trying to learn how to like men (again as people), he already likes women (ditto).
The guys fucked up, no doubt. But I like him. I envy him (yes i know its just a character). I wish i could feel the same about men. it cant hurt that I think he's quite attractive. Scratch that, he's fuck-tastic.

Hey Men
Hello Man. Thank you for reading this.
Have you ever experienced something that you could never accurately describe? Something horrible and aweful that, no matter how many times it happened, was just as bad or worse than before?
WELCOME TO WOMANHOOD
FUCK MENSTRUATION (p.s....MENstruation? give me a fuckin' break)
p.s.p.s. clearly im menstruating.

Last Week, and my first "like" @ men
I've been gone, it seems, for about a week. My bad. In all honesty I totally forgot about this blog until a funny soul commented to me a bit of "When Harry Met Sally".
I realize my blogs seem..well..angry? full of rage? sarcastic? bitchy? well they are because I am; but not all the time! cross my heart. I guess my blogs are that way because my topic makes me feel that way. hence the need to blog. anyway, I felt the need to say I'm a pretty happy person in general, this blog just won't make it seem that way...and I do quite enjoy When Harry Met Sally.
Back to men; i have no comment at this time. my spring break was ultimately man-less, as I went home with a friend. Her father and brother were there, but I really didn't see much of them. However, I had forgotten how ridiculous 16 year old boys were ;) so silly. It was a fun time, and the kid was a person. He had posters of half naked ladies, but I have posters of half naked men (or I did in high school anyway. in my locker. called it my wall of men.) so I can't fault him there.
Didn't see the father enough to try to see him as a person.
However, last night, while talking to my father (yes I actually have a pretty good relationship with my father. shocker I know.) i was thinking about how men always seem to put a time frame on their life. Its usually based on how long their father lived. They say things like, "well I probably won't make it past 72. Dad only made it to 68, and I'm not much healthier than he was".
They don't always say it out loud, but I know theyre thinking it. Why is this? And then I was thinking about how every generation gets a little older and projects their death a little later (medical advances and all that), and I thought of the inner city kids in gangs. They often say a similar thing, but it involved them dying by 20, or something sad like that. The males in their life (father, brother, uncle, fellow gang members) may have died at a similar age. I know that other things like violence and bravery and respect all play into expecting an early death, but I cant help but notice the correlation.
Then I thought, why dont women do this? The only answer I could come up with was, in general, men tend to be the providers. If not the providers, they at least tend to feel responsible for the well being of their family. Young men in inner cities often feel this way too, as they may be the oldest man at their home. Planning for the future is natural. Planning for their families, and worrying about them after they are gone is too.
I like that men show they care in this subtle way.

Day 2
Once again, relatively zero male encounters. I think it was a bad idea to start out on the weekend/right before my spring break (during which I am NOT going anywhere exciting).
Tomorrow, however, I will be heading out to a very large mall near Chicago. I'm sure there will be men there, though not men that I know or will be able to get to know very well. I promise to try to notice things, however, and I will try my best (despite being distracted by all of the exciting things for sale).
Finally, in order to actually have something to write about, I will begin to focus exclusively on the things I like and appreciate about men I know. As of now, I haven't been noticing, so I will have to be observant and pay attention until I have something to report. Hopefully it won't take a million years.

Day 1
Today was man free; minus the two little boys at a baby shower I went to. No men whatsoever. I interacted with zero men. So, basically, today was worthless. I'll try again tomorrow.
One thing I wonder. There are all kinds of women; mean women, nice women, selfish women, selfless women, and all kinds of in between women. Including women who use and abuse. So, why then, do I not take issue with all women? Why do I go ahead and give women the benefit of the doubt, but assume all men will let me down sooner or later? WTF. I know why. It's because that's all I've seen happen. I have proof of nothing otherwise.
