Yes...I said FUCK!
I have been told to "fuck off" twice now in the last 24 hours...and no...not by my students...but adult males...one of which I just met!
Not only is chivalry dead...but apparently manners and common decency have gone out of style as well.
Yes, I know it sounds like I'm over-reacting....and I do have a much thicker skin that this...BUT...I'm trying to make a point!
My mom always raised me with the thought that it was rude if any man cussed in front of a woman...let alone AT HER! And sure, I drop the f-bomb here and there, who doesn't? But I've never cussed at someone, even in jest.
Last night I met this guy and we realized that his mom used to teach at my high school and his sister went there as well. He asked me what year I graduated and how old I was....when I told him I was 28 he replied, "FUCK OFF!"
Excuse me?????
So he clarified that I looked much younger and "good for you" aka...that was supposed to be a compliment? Is "fuck off" now synonymous with "shut up", "no way" or "get outta here" because nobody filled me in?
Today, I was making conversation with a friend, and he told me to "fuck off" as well! I was willing to let the first one go from last night....but 2 times in 24 hours...what the FUCK!?
Yes....I said FUCK...again
I'm the type of girl who loves to joke around, and I can usually take a joke as well as dish it back....but in the past few years...I've had men I dated....men who I *assumed* were trying to impress me...because that's what my mom always said, when a man likes you, he's going to put his best foot forward and try to win you over....
Here are a few comments/gestures men thought were OK to do on a date
- One guy actually flipped me off while we were having dinner at Lucca...keep in mind this is a nice Italian restaurant
- A guy who I'd never met told me to "go to hell" over the phone as a joke?
- Another guy said "fuck you" to me...again...as a "joke"
- And the most recent guy I dated...who claimed that he liked me more than I liked him...actually cussed me out of his apartment and threw what I'd like to call a "grown man temper tantrum" because he wasn't getting laid
Seriously....when people ask me..."why are you single"
THIS IS WHY!!!!!
There is a lack of suitable resources....
Me...and my vagina are going on strike until conditions improve!
Datable men are like dinosaurs....they're extinct! Wouldn't it be awesome if they had an exhibit at the museums...where women could study the remains of the datable decent men that used to roam the planet? They could have pictures of these men performing their manly duties...like opening doors and paying bills!
Ok...maybe not the paying bills part...it's not 1950 anymore after all.
If there was an exhibit for the men of 2011, there would be pictures of men "forgetting their wallets" at dinner, checking out other girls while on a date...and texting their "girlfriend" when out with their wife!
If this poster is true...I guess I should consider myself a great woman!
