I like where I am. I pat my back for my accomplishments while noting my
failures. It doesn't make me proud or ashamed because either way it was
all my doing and I didn't kill anyone along the way. I don't feel the
need to gloss over messy details in my life to present the prettiest
picture. I've never gone down this mythical list of what a woman should
be and picked a charming sub-category. I don't have the energy, need or
desire to put myself forward as someone else.
I have little tolerance for hypocrisy, blind faith, racism, bigotry,
sexism, homophobia, playing happy family, and misguided apathy. Not
unlike most reasonable people. I like people who understand the simple
term of cause and effect. I don't like people who do something, inflict
the consequences and expect me too coo "poor sweetie" at their
orchestrated victimhood.
I can't stand self-labeled, free thinking feminists telling me I work so
hard, then chuckling cuz they think it's cute that I don't know my way
around a kitchen. I have a husband who does the cooking and cleaning for
me. He works hard, but he sets his own hours. We live by what's fair. We
squabble and argue and bicker with love. I should point out that we
didn't get married because we believe that without a piece of paper we
can't define our relationship, but because we wanted a good party. Who
needs to define a relationship anyways? It either is or it isn't.
I have no patience for people who commit to someone and complain about
being tied down. No one can force you to do anything that you don't want
to. You choose your life. Don't insult my intelligence by trying to
convince me there is nothing you can do.
To be a Heartless Bitch is to do everything with your heart while not
betraying what's in your head. It means never feeling sorry when it's
not your fault, taking full responsibility for your actions, and not
wasting your emotions or respect on people who haven't earned them.
