Why am I taboo?

I think that I am taboo because I am independent. A lot of females don’t like me because I don’t need to be with a guy! I am going to school and I am getting things accomplished within my life, and I will take as many guys along with me for the journey as I need, whenever I feel they’re needed. When I no longer need them, I don’t have trouble saying “sayonara”. I am taboo because I have an accurate perception of myself, and I know my worth, and I am not afraid to use it to get stuff for free. I mean, I know I look good with my hair down, why not stop by when there’s a good-looking guy at the deli and see if he’ll throw something in for me? I know he will. I am taboo because I am always willing to lend a helping hand to females that need help. When a girl needs a hand, I can sympathize or empathize and I always find a way to offer or provide help when a fellow female is in need. About all those guys…

            Yeah, I have been through about 15-18 boyfriends this semester. So what? I mean, for those of you who find love at first sight, I simply don’t think you look hard enough. I am picky, and if he does enough to rub me the wrong way, he is so gone. A lot of people think of me as a player, but I’m only in it for variety. I love learning, and experiencing a lot of cultures and views. The best way to do that: dating a lot of guys in college. I’m not in it for sex alone either, often times we don’t even get that far. Like I said, I’m picky. And I know I should be, because come on, I can look pretty good!

            Me: “Let’s see, red shirt, tight jeans, and spice things up with those bright red heels?”

Roommate: “But girl, we’re just going to the grocery store!”  Yeah that’s me, I will put in the extra effort to know I look good enough to go out, because come on, you never know who you could bump into! I mean what if Brad Pitt happened to be in town? I would feel awful if I didn’t look my best. And if me looking good only results in a wink from the door greeter or a frat cutie holding the door for me that extra 2 seconds, I would say it paid off. To me it would be wonderful to see girls my age taking a little extra pride in themselves going out, I’ve read statistics that say that if you only put a few more minutes into fixing your hair when you go somewhere, you will feel a whole lot better about yourself! Even if you just spritz some perfume on, you will feel hotter. It’s important to feel hot, because when you feel hot, you look hot. So many girls my age have awful complexes and body image problems that are a gigantic waste of time; I believe they should re-evaluate what they spend their time thinking about. I mean, I’m sure they’d all rather be more focused on the new hottie that’s taking them out on Saturday night, rather than how they are going to sneak to the bathroom to throw up at the family dinner. Come on ladies, you feel good, you’ll look good!

            For those girls who have image problems, for the girls whose image problems lead them to bad boyfriends who leave them on the side of the road, I’m there for you girls. Last week I was in the store and a girl about my age had a baby on her hip and was waiting to use the pay phone, I was really in a huge hurry but I stopped, as she was right next to the door, and I offered her my cell. She was obviously waiting on the call back from the pay phone because she didn’t have any change for the phone. She was so polite and quickly returned my phone, I asked her if she needed a ride and she said no. But, that wasn’t all I said. I wrote down my phone number, told her where I live and told her if she ever had trouble and needed a hand up, I would help her out. She hasn’t called me yet, but I know I won’t forget her. Any person who needs a hand, I would be happy to lend one. Most girls in college with me are not quite like I am.

            I am taboo because I think of other people. I am taboo because I don’t have body issues. I am taboo because I can be independent and driven for myself. These things that make me seem taboo in my social circle are really quite ridiculous. I think that if everyone were “taboo” like me, the world would be a better place.
