Something about most girls......

I just love this quote from a movie, it says it all about most girls and perhaps boys. The cynicism that affects us all. Guess which movie?

YOU KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU,

MISS WHOEVER-YOU-ARE?
U CALL YOURSELF A FREE SPIRIT,A WILD THING.
YOU'RE TERRIFIED SOMEBODY'S GOING TO STICK YOU IN A CAGE.

WELL, BABY, YOU'RE ALREADY IN THAT CAGE.

YOU BUILT IT YOURSELF.

AND IT'S NOT BOUNDED BY TULIP, TEXAS,OR SOMALILAND.IT'S WHEREVER YOU GO.

BECAUSE NO MATTER WHERE YOU RUN,

YOU JUST END UP RUNNING INTO YOURSELF.







I have been listening to alot of Sinatra lately. Abit of Moon River, Get Happy and Strangers in the Night. What does that say about me? Perhaps I was born in the wrong era. Where has all the romance gone. Sometimes I wonder if feminism, women rights have driven away all the romance from the guys. Girls want independence, they want to work, they want to support themselves. At the same time, guys no longer feel the need to protect girls and provide for the girls, to treat them well. Why do they have to now when girls can do it all on their own. It is really sad. Why does it have to be all or nothing?

Hypocrisy and cynicism. Welcome to the future.

Well. To answer your question. Its kinda hypocritical to say on the one hand that women should be equal to men, but at the same time to say that they should be treated differently by men. And well, it isn't all or nothing nowadays anyways, its just that as social norms change, the way in which they 'protect' and 'provide' changes.

In conclusion, yes, you were probably born in the wrong era. =P
