Girls should be Girls

Ok so let’s talk frankly.
With all due respect for feminists and women’s rights and the girls that got us where we are...we must not forget that we women are special and different from men. Thank God!!

Men and women are creatures with distinctive gender qualities and qualifications. We should not dismiss this fact. By recognizing this truth, our relationships with each other are so much more poignant, powerful, adventurous and fun.

So let’s identify the differences and celebrate them with each other.*

Not to overstate the obvious but, men are made differently than women; physically and emotionally. So the rules differ when it comes to who does what, where, and to whom. I believe it's best respect these variations between the sexes, not ignore them. It makes it less confusing when we hook-up.

Pink_ruby_2_2Women are girls and like girlie things - we are feminine - and that’s a beautiful thing. Men are boys, so they are masculine. For example, that's why we have more men in the army fighting than women, it’s just not lady like to pull out a gun. We can do it, but it’s generally not considered a feminine quality. Plus, lets face it girls, we’re not generally as physically strong as our male counterpart, so our gender is not as well suited for such a physically demanding job. Besides, it’s hard to look pretty when you’re rolling around in the dirt (but it can be sexy).

This is not a slight against women, it is a fact. Women are slighter than men, in fact. So why fight that? Let the boys go play war, while we stay home and make ourselves pretty. Nothing wrong with that!**

 It's important that we respect the sex differences so our dates can be more fun!

So, please, don't ignore your gender's protocol:
Come on Ladies, go a head and wear frilly tight girl fashions; call yourself by your rightful pronoun; and use your feminine prowess to flirt and be sexy.
And if you’re a man – be a man, get our your wallet and pay for the woman; always take care of her first; and compliment her on her beauty.

Let girls be girls, it’s only right.

**A SiDE NOTE: Different doesn’t mean unfair, as has often been the case between men and women in the workplace. It’s true that men and women can be hired for the same job and be paid on a different scale. Obviously, that’s not right. It’s the job that is being paid for, not their gender. If the job is the same and not gender-specific; the pay should be the same no matter who is hired. I’m not arguing that. I do not believe that anyone should have to negate the inherent difference between the sexes to be treated fairly in the work place.
