The Trouble With Girls

I'm trying to put together a Christmas party, and I realized that I really don't have any girls on the guest list other than a couple of the guy's girlfriends. That made me think about why it is that I don't really have girlfriends, and why there is a really small list of women I like/respect.

1. This first point will blame me. I'm not the best at returning calls, meeting up for gab sessions or generally maintaining female friendships, they really do require so much more work and attention than men require, and I'm a bit lazy and uninvolved overall.

2. I really don't like analyzing relationships and trying to figure out what went wrong and why, and what slight nuance of language or movement might have caused Man A to completely lose it and dump Girl B... I might have been a little more like that in Junior High, but by High School, that stuff became boring to me. I might still enjoy mocking an Ex's flaws or less desirable characteristics, but that's about making myself feel better in that time honoured human tradition of knocking others down to build yourself up, so it really doesn't count.

3. I am NOT huge on shopping. If I could shop via the internet for everything easily and cheaply and be assured of the quality etc. I absolutely would. I just find it depressing and quite frankly pointless to wander a shop gazing at items you cannot afford.

4. I despise "chick flicks". The ONLY movies I like that might be considered chick flicks are Marilyn Monroe ones. And I think that is because I CAN TELL that that woman was not as dumb and girly as she comes off.

5. I like video games, beer and eating. I will not eat a damn salad so that some guy thinks I'm not a pig. I AM a pig. I WILL eat a pizza with my hands (can you believe some people knife and fork pizza?), lick my fingers clean and go straight to a huge bowl of ice cream or maybe potato chips.

6. I don't wear make-up every single time I have to leave the house, in fact, mostly I can't be bothered. I also don't usually ask men how I look in things. If you don't like me, that is fine with me, I wasn't dressing for you anyway!

7. If bad driving is going on, 9 times out of 10, a woman is behind the wheel. The teenage boy could give a good challenge to the bad driving title I suppose, as could both sexes over 65.

8. I hate how competitive women are about the stupidest things. Talking to another girl's boyfriend however innocently can often lead to at least dirty looks. Women are so insecure as a whole and I don't know what to say to that other than to avoid being around women nearly completely. The whining and bashing of other women that typically goes on when girls get together sickens me. Women seem to care so much about what other women are wearing, doing, etc. and it usually amounts to : "she's a slut" or "she's a bitch". I can't be bothered with this. Men call women sluts too, but that's because they are intimidated and don't want their "sexual superiority" taken away. Either that or they have issues. Yeah guys, some of us are on to you too!

But yeah, I guess I like the boys better overall. They are idiots too, but in a less evil, vicious and purposefully hurtful way.

I think most of the females who might read my blog probably don't fall into the category of woman I am discussing. I'm glad for that.
