You Know You Like It…

Don’t you love to call somebody out on their hypocritical behaviour?  I know I do. 

While shopping earlier this week, I found myself standing behind a very attractive young woman probably in her early twenties.  Her jeans were the low waisted kind that nearly gave her “plumber butt” and yet successfully showed the bright red thongs that were flossing her fanny.  She had one of those year-round tans and a top that left nothing to the imagination.  And, this was all for the supermarket.    Being as cynical, crass, and hideously jealous as I was, I must admit she was cute.  But, to a man around her age (or any age for that matter)…she was ripe for the pickin’.

It didn’t take long for a couple of cute rough necks to get in the checkout lane next to ours.  They looked like ripped contractors…like firemen…or that guy from the cola commercials of yesteryear.  You know the one, right?  Anyway…  Of course, they had abandoned themselves to uninhibited gawking.  They didn’t care if the place was crowded or not.  This girl wanted to be noticed, right???  WRONG!  Damn you men and your lustful nature!  First, she tried to act like she didn’t notice.  Then, she stared at them finally turning her nose up in disgust.  Am I getting so old that I forgot the games, or does this just seem absolutely ridiculous?

Ya know, I have feminist views and understand the plight of the hard-working woman like any woman does, but please.  Please.  When I was this woman’s age and I dressed like this, I was DYING for attention.  And, I’d be willing to bet that if no one paid any attention to this obviously attention-starved woman she’d probably down her Xanax with a large glass of vodka and cry herself to sleep.  I call it the “celebrity double standard”.  They want to be in all the headlines so their careers don’t end and their egos stay in check, but GOD, don’t invade my privacy!  Wow.  It’s a little confusing to say the least. 

So, to all you young, hot little chickadees out there…get it while the gettins’ good.  It doesn’t last forever.  And, you KNOW you like it.  Just wait till you’re a ”cougar”.  God…now that’s another post for another day.
