"Tell the chef, the beer is on me."
Fantastic example of how prejudices work against girls. In fact, I’ve always stood first in school and college. During high school, there was this guy who couldn’t digest this fact and he openly “challenged” me that he would fair better in the finals. I stood first. Ha! I don’t know why I’m talking about this incident, but I guess this comic made me really upset.
Security at the cost of Privacy
I spent a good part of yesterday afternoon either removing or colouring every hair on my body [bar the downy, invisible bits] and whilst I was in the shower, it occurred to me how ludicrous it is that women are expected to do this. Putting aside the fact that I enjoy colouring my hair - or the end result of it, at least - and that it feels nice to have smooth legs etc, it is not entirely by choice that I do this. If I don’t do it, I risk rejection by not just men, but most of society.
So, I turn myself into and present to the world something that is not organic and not as I truthfully am. But that’s life to a large degree, isn’t it?
That said, I’m not giving up hair removal or dye any day soon. It was just something I was thinking about.
This is the exact thought that was racing through my head today, while I was taking a shower. Why do we need to take care of our looks so much? I’m tired of waxing my arms, legs and underarms, upper lips, shaping my eye brows, cutting my hair etc. I wish I could just let them be. We had this thing going on in college last Fall- One entire month, all guys and girls, no need to shave/wax etc! What a liberty! I wish I’d joined that movement. It pisses me off when I read stuff like “Can’t tolerate women with hairy arms” in guys’ profiles. I want to tell them, “Buzz off!”. (Not that I don’t shave…in fact, I can get away without shaving for at least 1.5 months…yes my hair growth is very slow). But still…we care. Being a woman is not so easy. And did I even talk about PMS?
Katy came up with this great idea to write about five really good things that I did today. So here’s my list:

My University. Covered with Snow and sleet. Thank you ice storm.
Very interesting picture, because it shows how much our lives have changed because of the internet. I do read a lot of books, but I also spend a lot of time online on my laptop, reading stuff on the internet.
LMAO! This reminds me of another switch board that had Jesus on it…anybody seen that one? This is certainly more “respectable”.
Aww! So very cute. :) I feel so happy and smiley after seeing this picture.

I love that word “dopamine”. In fact, I’m going to use this line on my guy today and see his reaction.
I’m going to do this the next time I catch a cold. And click a similar pic. You should do it too and put it up on your tumblelog and turn it into a tag game.
I love this picture. It reminds me of the ice storm that we had last week. I really need to get one of these umbrellas!
”**It’s new, different and exciting**. Some men get tired of having steak for dinner every night and want to try a hamburger. The same goes for sex with a woman. That’s why men don’t necessarily always cheat with women who are more attractive than their partners.” **Your sex life stinks**. If a man has a disinterested partner or isn’t getting enough sex to fulfill him, there is a good chance he will have an affair. Just because you have a husband or boyfriend, does not mean you can stop trying. It takes a little bit of effort to keep your sex life from becoming boring and non-existent. Some men cheat because they want to try new sexual things that their current partner will not try.
So- it’s all about men, huh? I totally dislike this article. It reeks of masochism. And the thing is, this article has been posted in the column “Love & Sex: Advice”. How many times have we read variations of the same “advice”? Men need more advice than we do because they are cheating! (Not that women aren’t…).
“Everything you do on these sites is updated to one place, Iminta, and you can subscribe to the RSS feed so you don’t even really need to return there either.** You can also select specific groups of friends to have access to your information. **So, if you don’t want your work buddies to see the videos you’re favoring on YouTube, then don’t give them access to that account. Every site you belong to has different privacy settings so you’re not limited to all or nothing.”
I like the idea of having the liberty to control my privacy, which is absent in Friendfeed.

Really happy with this move because I love popurls.com and the OpenID movement!
This is exactly what I need before going to sleep tonight. Everything will be okay! Sleep tight and let the bed bugs not bite.
