How to be a Woman WITHOUT Popping Out Kids

One day, I read a Time Magazine article talking about how in America, womanhood is determined by being a mother. Weirded me out because I'm in my mid-20's with not a kid to be seen. And apparently, according to society, that means I'm just a girl, not a woman. Frankly, I strongly disagree with this idea. I think there's 3 ways to be a woman without having to get your bang on with a dude to have a kid. Here they are!

3. BE EDUCATED! Let's face it. Nobody likes a dumb-ass. Especially when that dumb-ass decides she's going to be cute about being stupid. 

Woman to prove my point: Jessica Simpson.... Think about it......

2. IT'S NOT A RACE TO GET YOUR BANG ON! Lately, a lot of girls, especially teens, get ostracized for whether or not they've been bumping uglies. But the problem is that in this country, it's contraversial whether or not the girl gets a proper sexual education. If she wants to find out anything, she's going to have to either find that one family member who's a little too open about her sex-capades, or Urban Dictionary it. And even if she does know, it's not guarenteed she'll actually listen. And a lot of times, it doesn't do the girl good if she does brag about it. It's okay to be comfortable with your sexuality. Not okay to brag about it. It makes you look desperate. 

Case in point: Ke$ha. She writes songs about being sleazy and drinking to make herself look cool. I actually can't stand her because she makes herself look like a partying sleaze. It makes me sad that she would hide the fact she's a History/Math nerd. Frankly, I think it's the coolest thing ever that she would sneak into college lectures when she was in high school. 

1. MAKE THE MAN COME TO YOU! NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND! Just as no one likes the dumb-ass that acts stupid because she thinks it's cute. No one likes the desperate, weak woman. If they do, it's because they think the woman's that easy to control and manipulate. As they say, a strong woman scares a weak man. How you find your strength depends on you. 

Case in Point: Whoopi Goldberg. Strange I'd throw her in this countdown, right? Well, it's mainly because she had a romance that didn't workout, but she still managed to find a successful life, even without it. She didn't let it consume her. That's how to not be desperate and weak. :) 

So that's it. THAT's how you can be a woman without popping out kids. You don't need to be a mother to be a woman. Or else it'd be a little awkward to tell the "old maids" they're just little girls because they never got married and have kids.

Awkward picture of the day!
