Wittiness Required: Day 4 Post 3

Slut Walk Move Over...Your Boring Me!

This picture doesn't exactly scream sleazy women, and it did make me laugh out loud. But the reality is it's a symbol of something bigger.

A man making fun of women acting sleazy on Covers of Magazines.

I have spent years ignoring Reality TV, Magazines, Entertainment programs focusing on (so called) famous ppl... even Facebook ad's now and days. It bores me. Seriously...I could literally cry I'm so bored with other ppl's drama. (Ya I know, then I blog...who the heck am I? haha)

But then I made the mistake of "Liking" a few shows on Facebook. I would get weekly updates, which I LOVED (Now I know if the show's "New" or not. I like TV, what-of-it?!)

BIG MISTAKE! BIG BIG MISTAKE!! I could redo the "Pretty Woman" Scene it was SO big! (If you don't know the movie, stop reading...Your to young to read my blogs)

Anyways!

It took a wicked turn for the worst yesterday when I got an update for the show "Community." A show I just started watching. (One that I will never watch again) Two of the younger women on the show posed for a GQ article, so of course the network NBC was proudly advertising it. (More money in sex right!)
I normally would have hit "Hide" on the picture, then moved on with my day... But I was out. You can't hide pictures on your phone. So you know what that means fellow fb phone users... EVERY friggin time I went on my phone to get a response to something I sent out (or just facebook stalk) the stupid picture kept popping up.

Soon I started to notice thousands of comments were being made (Not looking, just noticing the numbers under the pic) and at least 4 thousand ppl had "liked" the pic within 43mins. (I didn't realize prisoners, teenage boys and perverts everywhere where on their computer at the same time in the World...but they were!)

So me being me, I read the article it advertised to see what the big deal was.

It had NOTHING to do with the show.

NOTHING!

The article focused on two girls giggling and acting like lesbians because they thought it was funny. (You know how it is Ladies...acting gay is fun! Gay ppl don't struggle to feel excepted, loved and understood right!? It's easy to be gay. This isn't at all insulting to anyone)

Oh wait...Yes it is!

OK Amy...shut-up and get to the point...

He looks like he respects women...

So I (of course) made a comment. It wasn't all bra burning, Bible thumping, prude...It was just sarcastic.

Long long longer story short...

I got a number of responses back. I even got one from a writer at GQ who felt women wouldn't be respected no matter how they dressed and/or acted (His mom must be proud!)

PLUS a larger then expected amount of men name calling (your jealous, you must be fat...we don't need you. Typical high school drop-out classy stuff)

This is strong... Empowering...I'm taking her toughness seriously.

No man out there is going to throw a punch to see if she'll hit back...(if your slow, I mean move her arms)

Guys like her smile and wit...

This pic screams "I'd make a good wife, Mom and someone that'll you'll want to take home to Mom!"

I don't know about you, but I hope my kids have a role-model like Rihanna! She's every Father dreams his daughter to be!

It REALLY worries me that men are so afraid that women will HAVE to be taken seriously, respected or have less then what is already available in porn. These men have to lower themselves to pick on women over fear of losing the ability to feel the right to degrade women.

This is an addition that we have created.

Seems we women have broken the Silent Agreement Among Women. (I am now adding this to the Awesome Amy Dictionary under SAAW act of 2011) We once had an understanding that their were two types of women. "Sleazy & Classy." Now we have Classy women acting sleazy, THEN trying to be classy again.

Before someone says something, YES! We all make mistakes! But when you go side-to-side-to-side over and over again, it breaks the Code.

I mean COME ON...Women everywhere walking the "Slut Walk" to encourage our Rights to be who we want to be, Dressing like a slut to prove a point ISN'T working!

Heck even the name of the "Rights Protests" is a Joke!

We need a new approach. We have to stop being the "Cool Girlfriend" and make men realize we DESERVE respect!

Believe it or not, if a guy really likes you, he will wait longer then 3 dates to sleep with you... "Sex in the City" was JUST a show (a GOOD show.....but just a show!)

That Samantha character...? Ya you can't act that way and truly get respect.

*Stressing*

JUST A SHOW!

NOW I will leave you with some pictures of men I also don't respect... Just cause I can... ;-)
