Double Standards

Being on twitter and talking to a bunch of men, I constantly see them complain and talk about how women are such "jockers" or copy a female's style like Nicki Minaj, Amber Rose, and Rihanna. I personally feel that these women are doing their thing. They are doing great things as far as Branding themselves. Since they breathe fashion and individuality its no mystery why women want to emulate them. These girls are influenced by them and dress like them, wear their hair like theirs, and even call themselves the names of these celebrities.

I don't have a problem with that because famous people have been influencing hair, makeup, and fashion trends since there was a Hollywood. I do have a problem with the men that bash these women for doing so. I have a problem with them because its like the pot calling the kettle black. Men "Dick Ride" so much it's not even funny and its acceptable.

Take a celebrity/athlete like Michael Jordan. Every guy you know that are into sneakers, owns a pair of Jordans or multiple pairs. And wait it does not end there. He can get a Jordan tattoo, have Jordan posters, clothes, and talk about him like he knows him personally. They can tell you his whole life story, stats, etc etc. Is that NOT obsession? I find that to be so extreme. But when a teenaged - early 20's year old female rocks full bangs and calls herself a Barbie she's a Nicki Stan? And when I refer to these men that do that, they are like 21 and up, hell even the ones in their 30's.

So tell me? What makes these men think that its cool for them to rock Air Yeezy's , a Levis jean jacket and skinny jeans and swear that they are so different knowing you just saw a picture of Cudi wearing the exact same thing. Or wait, how about when Ye' dropped "Runaway", so many GROWN men were calling themselves Douchebags because Kanye called himself that..

Another instance is men loving Wiz and Curren$y.. I love them too, but dudes just know they are in the Taylor Gang and are Jets wearing Chuck Taylors and Jets paraphernalia. And these men take it to another level! Wiz and Spitta only smoke papers, so guess what? So many guys only smoke with papers now?

All in all men act like ho ass groupies too.. Excuse my language but I call it as I see it.

It's Been a While..Again

Sooo... I know it's been such a long time since I last updated my blog. I really don't know what I am going to do to it.. I don't really have a following or anything, which is why I don't update that much. Or maybe its because I am more boring than I thought..  Or its the fact that I don't have loyal friends.. Who knows..

OH!!! And I bought a new laptop so I don't have an excuse to NOT Blog.. Also don't forget to go to AmberNoRoseBlog where I'm a featured blogger.

Anyway,
I started school in January and it has been amazing so far. I'm actually doing great in all my classes. I'm doing exceptionally well in the one class I thought I would have issues in. However, I do have social issues in that class. Well its very one-sided really. More like my problem..LOL

There is this girl that I sit next to in the class gets on my nerves. I don't know anything about her but she is just UGH. The 1st thing she did that pissed me off was take up the whole table.. Like 2/3's of the table is consumed mostly with this big dirty bag! It's not a purse so put that bag on the floor.

Another thing, I know that you should always be yourself at all times, but the way this girl scratches her hair is so disgusting. She puts her hand under her shirt and scratches her stomach and back.. And the sound of her nails digging into her skin makes my skin crawl... And her hands are always ashy.. I'm just thinking DUH! That's why you're itchy like that, you haven't moisturized.

The thing that pissed me off the most is her questioning me if my hair was real or not. Sometimes i blow my hair out, flat iron, do braid outs (often) and buns.  So i guess the week before last I had my hair in my styled from my regular braid out with the middle part and the next week i blew it out and had it in a bun on top of my head. She says to me on the day I had my hair in the bun, "What happened to your hair?"
 I respond, "Huh?"
She says, "Last week you had it out and curly"
Me, "Yeah, it's just up in a bun now"
Her "But it was big, was that a weave?"
Me, "Yes, that's my natural hair"

How you gon' question the hair that I grew out my head? This week.. I had my hair out again. As soon as I sit down I can feel her staring at me. I turn to look at her and she quickly turns her head. She was really staring at my hair to figure out if I'm lying. Whether I'm lying about my hair or not, is it gonna change her life if its real or fake? It's not like she complimented me.

Anyway, i am going to try to manage my time better to stay committed to this blog.
