I saw the video everyone was blasting.. well part of it, I couldn't watch the whole thing. It was that horrible. You know, the one with Miley Cyrus, the dancing teddy bears, and that creep Robin Thicke? This whole backlash against Miley Cyrus and her performance on MTV was such a shock to everyone, because this stuff is just so brand new....
Really? Were you REALLY shocked? Please tell me you're kidding.
This world is full of a lot of good things. But its also full of a lot of bad things. And it HAS been for like, years now. But lately those bad things seem to be what gets more of your attention. I mean, hey, I'm sure if I shook my butt in front of men while practically naked I wouldn't be alone every night. But lets be honest here.. do you really think that kind of behavior would make my life any better? For those of you applauding Miley for being herself, do you really think deep down that girl is happy? If you think yes, well then you have no idea what real happiness is. Sorry.
In ten years, that girl will be thirty. That's just about how old I am right now. I'm thirty one. I look back and a lot of the problems I have been working through now began from that age. When I was her age I had men looking at me the way they looked at her. In fact, I even had a guy who only dated me until he got what he wanted, and then broke up with me. He was much older than me too. You know what I think about him now? He was pathetic. He took advantage of a 20-year-old for his own personal needs, and if you ask me he wasn't a man at all. I wish I could have told my 20 year old self just what those kind of guys do to your self image.
I bet I would have loved Miley Cyrus back then. I would have thought "twerking" was sexy, and that dressing like that would get the guys to like me, and the girls to want to be like me. But do you know what that creates? It creates immoral, selfish, self-centered, entitled people who only care about what they want to do, regardless of the damage it causes. And in ten years she's going to regret every bit of it, you can quote me on it, too.
As for me and my thirty one year old life? Yes I'm still single. No I do not go out partying and drinking it up at the clubs and bars. I could, but each time I'm tempted I remind myself of the times I went out with my sisters, sitting on the barstool waiting for them to get all drunk, and dance to the blasting music.. then finally realize they are too drunk to stand up, have to walk them back to the car where they throw up the last five drinks that were "so good I've got to try it" and then sit silently in the car as they lay passed out on my shoulder until we get them home.
Why is that fun for people? Why is drinking and partying fun?? I've heard many excuses. There is never a new one. "It's a great way to let loose" "You can leave the day behind" "It helps you forget the crap from the day"..
I have news for you, what the expectation of a night out at the clubs are and the reality of it is two VERY different things. You see the tv show versions and think it must be awesome.. but when you get to the club it's about 10pm and no ones there because they don't get there until around 11:30.. then it gets so packed you can't even move, then you have to wait in line as a billion people order their drinks from a screaming bartender over music so loud you can't even think. The floors are sticky from God knows what, the people are smelly and sweaty from God knows what, and you are forced to watch girls who are much prettier than you get the attention because their boobs are hanging out.. so forget getting a drink. I say just bring your own because you know there are those creeps who will drug a girl because they are too pathetic to get one without drugging them.
Ew. Good LORD, I just gave myself an anxiety attack!
Am I the only one who thinks that is not fun?? Every time I leave those situations I feel so bad about myself. If I let myself get taken by those kinds of people maybe momentarily I'll be happy, mostly because I'd be drunk, but what happens when the alcohol wears off? I still have to deal with my emotions, or whatever it is I'm trying to forget or get over... and last time I checked that is never accomplished with alcohol. That usually makes the situation worse, not better.
Ho hum, and this is what the world wants more of? And this girl Miley gets to be verbally beaten to death by the people who will kick her when she's down instead of helping her back to her feet.
Oh, Miley. I wish you would listen to the wisdom of woman like Maya Angelou who's said things like, "A woman's heart should be so hidden in God that a man has to seek Him just to find her." I wish you were taught that your body belongs to God, until you are married, then it is shared (with your husband)... I wish you would be encouraged by the good person you were, and not embarrassed and have this desire to change your image from it. Do you really have to be this way Miley? Do you hear what they say now? Is this really who you want to be?
Robin Thicke should be ashamed of himself. And so should all the "boys" who enjoyed that performance. She is nothing more than a prostitute to you, selling sex. It's disgusting. I guess they like it because it's the cool thing to do. My life of going to church and serving as a missionary isn't cool or sexy... I'm too goody goody for them... yep, so no attention from them for me.
Good. Thank God. The last thing I want is disgusting boys like that hurting me. I grew up out of my past of allowing the wrong guys around me. Yes I sit at home a lot, no I don't have a date every night. But you know what? I'd rather be home alone then out with the wrong guy who's only intention is to break my heart or use me.
Thank you very much.
And my son will be raised to learn what a real man is, not like those that are paid to be the pigs that they are. No way. He's going to hold doors for ladies, he'll be respectful, and if I catch him acting the way the world says he should I will promptly correct him. He's better than that. And I will never condone that... He will learn how to treat women, and NOT LIKE THEM.
