I'm continually amazed at how tactless people are when they feel they know you, but don't. Case in point: men who have to nitpick women on the radio just because they're women. I don't just assume a guy is a "skank" or a "slut" because he's on the air, why are those the easiest things to call women they hear? Do they honestly think, "She's on the radio, she's a slut?" Is that the question that goes through their heads? Amazing that these people who don't even know me think I'm an "idiot," a "slut," a "skank," a "teeny-bopper jerk."
Thick skin. Fine, you have to have thick skin, but sometimes I don't. It's hard enough to get up, try to do a good job at work, try to have a bit of a life, take care of yourself, make sure the oil in your car is changed... the normal stuff everyone else deals with too. And yet, some person has to ruin your day by just sending an email out of the blue personally insulting you for absolutely nothing. Nothing constructive, just the fact that you're on the radio so you're a "skank."
Token woman. When will society get to the point where the female isn't the "token?" Will we ever deem a man "token?" And why is it that when a women works off her ass and tries to get ahead in her career, she's nothing more than just a "token?" Not a "hard-worker" not "good at what she does" but a "token."
At what point do you stop having the will not to believe all the bad stuff? Never, I will rant and I will go on. Opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one, and so do I.
You ski. I ski. Hold on while I make this awkward.
