Why am I a Heartless Bitch? Mainly because I can see no reason NOT to be one. Heartless Bitches have more fun.
We don't have to build our lives around our manicure schedules.
We don't have to worry about completing our Precious Moments or Beanie Baby collections.
We don't have to worry that our male co-workers might not like us if we can do the same work they do, only better and faster.
We are free to hoot derisively at Julia Roberts movies.
We can decide to go backpacking through China if we feel like it.
We can also have cats, wear dresses, or go on dates if we feel like it.
Why? Because WE DO WHAT WE FEEL LIKE DOING. And this, I feel, is the essence of Heartless Bitchdom -- we do what we feel WE should, without worrying about societal expectations, peer pressure, or what our mothers would like to see us do.
I've never fit into any sort of category -- not the perfect little girl, not the homecoming queen, not the sorority girl, not the wannabe wife/soccer mom. All I've ever been is myself, and that self is opinionated, intelligent, and able to hook up my own damn VCR. If that makes me a Heartless Bitch, I am proud to claim the title.
Yes! I want to read more from Real Life Heartless Bitches
