I'll Never Understand Why Women Try To Be A "guy's Girl." I Always See Things On Here Like, " Watching
I'll never understand why women try to be a "guy's girl." I always see things on here like, " watching football and eating wings—i'm such a guy!" The reality is not that women want to be men, it's that they want to be someone desirable to men. Society paints a picture that women should conform to what a man is looking for. The problem is, women lose themselves in the process.
When do you see men tweeting, "went shopping and bought Starbucks today...i'm such a girl! You don't—even though I know plenty of men who shop and drink Starbucks. This is because men wouldn't dare embrace being feminine. But women, they have powder puff football leagues dedicated and geared towards a male target audience. Beer commercials always paint the picture of a woman in the kitchen nagging her husband during the game, eating gluten-free burgers.
Men love their masculinity and wouldn't dare threaten it for anything. Why don't women feel the same about their femininity? I love being a woman and everything that entails. Golf bores me to tears, I drink girly cocktails and I fucking love gluten-free burgers. I'm not interested in being interesting to men. I'm plenty interesting on my own.

I'm a firm believer that "actions speak louder than words." But sometimes words don't need to be loud in order to be heard. Sometimes a few subtle words resinate with us better. A kiss on the forehead might show you that you're loved, but a million kisses could never trump hearing the words for the first time. Actions are truth, but words are proof. Words are powerful.
I'm terrified of the stagnant.
I'm enamored by the strangest things. By people who don't try too hard to standout. People who are mysterious and beautiful by simply being themselves.

When we give, we actually receive. This doesn't have to be in currency, but it could be. However, I've found that it is the things that cannot be appraised, that have no price—these are the greatest gifts one can give. Our time, our love, our empathy, our word—these things cannot be bought. They must be given, and they are best given freely. It's in giving freely without expectation that we learn to live with constant appreciation.
