If I Were A Boy

MPV.....my point of view!
If I Were A Boy

'What if I,had a thing on the side/Made you cry/Would the roles change,or would they still apply/If I,played you like a toy/Sometimes I wish I didn't act like a boy...'-Like A Boy,Ciara.

Like a boy,my favourite Ciara song.(The one that makes me want a penis).I was dancing to it during my dance session this morning.(And burnt my knees whilst doing the slide).

Boys.They run the world.Boys get away with everything.They make all the rules on everything in life.It sucks!Ladies are you not tired of it.Because no matter how many female empowering songs we sing,'Who run the world.....girls!',it is still a man's world.(One that could use some castration).

I do try to understand male behaviour,(because,I was raised by a man,and I have a lot of brothers).I have been reading books on male behaviour including Tyrese and Rev Run's,'Manology',but there are some behaviours that perplex me about the male species.(And cannot stand it.I think I speak on behalf of femaledom).

What if we were to switch the roles.What if we women ran the world.If we were the decision makers.If we were the ones writing self-help books like 'Act Like A Lady,Think Like A Man',or 'Girl Power' for guys.If we were the ones making the guys cry,(being the players,or the 'dons').

Like Beyonce,if I were a boy,even just for a day.(I would love to utilize all that testosterone to the maximum).And come home at 4 in the morning after a night out with 'my boys',(or some random chick),and be a total douche,(deciding not to be answerable to anyone,even if there is someone).

But,sadly,unfortunately,for as long as there is no sex change and hormone therapy,we,women,still remain part of the female species that is oppressed by a patriarchal society,(no matter what constitution is placed,or 'Iron Lady' is in power).It is still,a man's world!

'If only impossible was possible
Then I would be the ideal
The ideal of what a woman should feel when she is loved
That ideal love that comes from the ideal man
I would be the ideal man
If I were a boy....

If I were a boy
I would everything that other boys aren't
I would exactly what the girls want
If I were a boy.'-Eloya Somaine

......but I am not a boy.But that is how I would like to be treated by a boy.(That is how I would be,if I were a boy).

Eldom: See things through a boy's eyes,then you will never cry.

P.S: Always write your own love story.

Ciao!

Baa baa Black Sheep

‘Baa baa black sheep have you any wool? Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full One for the master, One for the dame, One for the little boy who lives down the lane.”-Baa baa Black Sheep, Nursery Rhyme Oh how I loved nursery school! Learning was so much fun and colourful as the teachers taught using music, visuals and lots of play and let’s not forget nap time! Gosh! (I stare into a blank space with so much nostalgia). Hmm, question! Is there more to life than trying to constantly fit into other people’s moulds? Are my imperfections so great that those around are blinded to the planks to the planks in their own eyes? Or maybe I am just not appropriately in the right place? At one point or another, we all have faced identity issues, or have suffered from the ‘I don’t fit in’ syndrome. The worst time is the puberty-adolescent period. As an individual, one tries to live up to expectations from parents, teachers, peers and society at large. During that same period, an ...

Single Ladies: The Metrosexual

*Riding on a black horse* (I wish).* Beyoncé  wave* 'Hey single ladies!'. For a lady on a quest, the horse would have been ideal,right? Anyway ,how have y'all been? I hope the lessons that we are going through are helping us build character. (Wifen material). Today we have yet another bachelor under our radar. So we have so far, gone through our potential Mr Put-A-Ring-On-It who has been bachelor; the widower, the divorcee, the foreigner, the boy and last but not least, the single dad. Not so bad ladies. Now bachelor number six is,the metrosexual. Now why should we place such a man on our panel,you ask? Well,he is my personal favourite *wink*. The anatomy of a metrosexual. By definition a metrosexual is an urban man with a disposable income who spends a lot on his appearances. In other words, a guy's guy who is in touch with his inner pink. Now why would a metrosexual be a good candidate for Mr Put-A-Ring-On-It? He is not. Most metrosexual men, if not gay, or...

My Point of View!

If I could afford one,I would have a shrink,but instead I have my point of view! There are days where I will write long blogs,others,I will keep it short and sweet,but at the end of the day,it is my therapy.But I also do intend to make an impact with this MPV. That's just me! P.S: Always write your own love story. Ciao! Lady E

Script My Life: Love By the 10th Date

Finding love shouldn’t be a duty but it should be a journey that you enjoy the ride while you get to it... I don’t remember when was the last time I related to a number of female characters in one movie. I finally watched Lifetime movie ‘Love By the 10th Date’.  The trailer to the movie, written and directed by Nzingha Stewart, enticed me for a good chick flick...about women of colour. The all star cast includes the gorgeous Kelly Rowland, Meagan Good, Keri Hilson and Kellee Smith. We also see Cat Deely, Joshua T Jackson, Andra Fuller and UnReal’s Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman. The story line follows a group of young, successful black friends who work for a high end, digital magazine Nina. The protagonist is Gabrielle Fateful a.k.a Gabby played by Meagan Good. Gabby is a graphic designer at Nina whose love life is an actual struggle. The scene that kickstarts the plot of the movie is when Gabby goes out for dinner with friends and workmates, Margot (Kelly Rowland), Bi...

The Writings On The Wall

Thou shall move onto the next! And then 'If You Leave' by Destiny's Child and Next starts to play. Gosh, 'The Writings on the Wall' remains my favourite Destiny's Child album, ever. The concept of the '10 commandments' of relationships. Brilliant!  Bonjour, mes amies! Comment ça va? Ça va bien!  (Caribbean accent) Your gyal ,  moi , has been experiencing epiphanies. And a few disappointments, but life is too sweet to be upset. Lick your ice cream and have sweet red wine! I travelled through the blogosphere for inspiration for our topic today. Ironically, I also had a discussion with an acquaintance about a similar topic. There's nothing that I love more than people who brag about their intelligence. Oh, my! People pride themselves on their levels of education, often equating it to intelligence. We assess our value based on having degrees, master's degrees, and doctorates. If only those worked in relationships. I think of David Robson's '...
