Roe V Wade Overturned
So, my thoughts on Roe V. Wade being overturned are that this is completely insane. How can we be the "land of the free" when not everyone is free? Women had to fight for our rights and now they are just taking them away again? For what? Just because some people want to cry about it?

F**k Your Standards of Beauty
We’re told all our lives that we should be a certain way and look a certain way, we’re warned not to be too much of this or not enough of that. We’re shaped in such a way that has us questioning everything we are, everything we’re not and everything we think about ourselves. Who are you to tell me how my body should look, what shape my hips should be, or what colour my hair should stay? Who are you to convince me you have an input on my appearance?

Troubled Girl
I was raised deep in the Appalachian mountains, a small podunk town that mostly had more trees than people and churches than stores. A place where fun consisted of driving late in the evening to nowhere in particular while you listened to music and ate Dairy Queen with whatever person was in the mood to join you.

Blame The Government, Sweetie.. Top Story - July 2022.
I had a conversation with my best friend today while we were in the gym. She brought up the fact of how different she was treated by her family at a family function because she had lost a significant amount of weight since the last time they had seen her. She said that for the first time ever, they had invited her to take shots with them and actually conversed with her on a deeper level. She also joked about how if they saw her now, even smaller than she was before, they would be serving her drinks and food. The common theme of her visits with her family during holidays were always uncomfortable for her because she was often ignored. She realized this past Christmas that the reason she wasn't spoken to was because of her heavier weight. I got to thinking, now why is that? Why would the people who are supposed to love you no matter what, treat you less as a larger person than they would if you were smaller? She inspired more questions that I had. Why is it that even strangers treat us differently? Sometimes without even noticing.

How to talk like a femme fatal
As a woman being a femme fatale is the most powerful thing that you can become. Many people think that you need a certain look to become this powerful although physical Beauty has very little to do with it. Once you master the art of conversation then there is no stopping you. First off, you want to talk slower. talking slower and with more intent shows confidence and an internalized sureness of yourself. Talking slower will prevent you from stuttering And will catch people's attention. This is because in our society everyone prioritizes speed. When it comes to talking with others you aren't looking for Speed you are looking for Meaningful words. you want to leave the other person thinking about what you said even hours, days, months after the conversation. the more you occupy someone's mind oh, the more power you hold. try keeping your voice at the same pitch. This does not mean talking in a monotone Style but instead learning to Convey powerful emotions without significantly lowering or raising your voice. A good skill to learn is to change your voice depending on the person and what you want from them. This will not work on people that you interact with daily. They know your voice and going back and forth from a very high-pitched soft feminine voice, to a deeper, more seductive voice will cause confusion. Taking breaks when answering questions is another way to seem smarter, Charismatic, confident, and captivating. Avoid vulgar language and give off an innocent personality almost child-like to compensate for how sexy you are. try to stick in their brain. You want them to not stop thinking about you. You can do this either by connecting with them emotionally, leaving them second guessing their own thoughts, having them wondering what you meant especially when sending mixed signals, and getting them to tell you something personal. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU PRY OR EMOTIONALLY MANIPULATE THEM. Don’t take advantage of the person if you are able to really get through to them but instead just leave them wanting more. More of your voice, your thoughts, your company. Use kindness and seduction as your main tools but let it be known that you are not a force to be reckoned with. You cannot let people talk over you, ignore you, or disrespect you. The most important part when standing your ground as a femme fatale is to think logically and clear. Make sure to examine the situation. Real interactions I have had:

Women Vs. Society
Women. Once seen as goddesses in ancient greece centuries ago, and now seen as objects. How would YOU define a real woman. Does it all come down to what's in her pants? or If she's very well "behaved" or my favorite, hairless. Must not have any hair on her arms, back, chin, and god forbid let there be a spec of hair on her legs. It's so unlady like for a woman to be loud. To get a little dirty. To not provide the needs her husband longs for. Women are treated so badly... but for what? Without us where would the world be today?
