high school stereotypes....part II

given my recent lack of something to do, i decided to engage in part II of my social experiment. for day 1 i donned my preppy garb and headed to the rockaway mall in search of reactions, especially from the male sex. preppy dana was absolutely the most well-received by all types of males. whether i was in hot topic, abercrombie and fitch, hollister, or that ghetto store that no one knows the name of, i was at least looked at. i bumped into my friend steve [no, not that steve] who was mildly confused, so i explained. he admitted that preppy girls turn the heads of all guys because they are usually the most likely to put out. i didnt know that, so i guess that explains why i for once got looks from guys who are not completely stoned and/or wasted. day 2 was goth day and i was largely ignored and even dismissed by nearly all males, the exception, of course, being a couple goth kids. but my lack of piercings was a sign that i wasnt really goth, so i didnt get much attention. day 3, scene day, was also pretty well-received in that it appeals to both preps and punks because it incorporated aspects of both styles. thinking about it, everyone but ghetto kids gave me a quick lookover. of course, the only ones who talked to me were the stoners, as usual.

conclusion: dress preppy and you will bring all the boys to the yard. dress scene and you get a few. dress goth and youre screwed. dress like normal dana and you too can attract druggies!!

im having an I HATE THE MALE SEX moment

NOTE: i am in no way a feminist, i am just pissed.

i dont know why, but i decided to watch the cosby show today and the plot was that pam's boyfriend was all IF YOU LOVE ME HAVE SEX WITH ME and that kind of thing, one of those episodes thats intended to give a sense of pride and self-respect to black women. yeah i know, im not black, but same deal. seeing pam refuse to give it up to her man even if it meant he left her empowered me and made me even more pissed than i am at the male sex at present for reasons some know about but i will share if you really want to know, but it isnt anything to exciting.

it has been my experience with guys that they seem to think that they have permission to do whatever they want with whomever they want as long as they are drunk because we all know that alcohol is the ultimate excuse for everything. and once the unspeakable act is done its perfectly normal for the male to expect that he can succesfully return to his previous female by demonstrating his love with nice little letters (mia understands) and for awhile it does indeed seem quite nice. but you know what? back to the bill cosby show. pam was talking to claire, telling her about the love letters and gifts that sky was giving her and how she felt guilty for denying him sex because it was obvious that he really loved her. claire gave a whole GET CHO'SELF A REAL MAN black woman speech that again i connected with. screw the letters!!! cam can pull anything out of his ass and he thinks it will make it better. pfft no. ignoring it doesnt work either. and no, it is not okay to show up at the hurt female's parent-free house post-fight and expect the same kind of treatment they had before.

so i have decided, in true feminist fashion, that the male sex generally sucks. thank you bill cosby.

i went back and read this and realized that it is incoherant babbling of a mad angsty teen. i apologize for putting you through that.
