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!

The Red Season: Breadcrumbs of Love

No matter how broken you are, a meal of love is what you need. For the first time in a long time, I will admit on this platform, I will admit that I cried. I felt humiliated and hurt. Mariah Carey's "Cry" is playing in my head. I keep asking myself why am I this person? Why do I keep scraping for crumbs of love? Am I not enough? And following a recent disappointment, I reverted to a quote that I saw on a certain blog. "You could have the best intentions, you could have the most sincere feelings, and you could be a good woman and you still wouldn't be able to keep a man because the only way to keep a man is if that man wants to be kept by you,"  Sipho Mbhele. "You could have the best intentions, you could have the most sincere feelings, and you could be a good woman and you still wouldn't be able to keep a man because the only way to keep a man is if that man wants to be kept by you,"  Sipho Mbhele. Gosh, I'm tired of this circus. The fact

5 Inexpensive Dates in a Bad Economy

If he's making the economy an excuse, swipe left.... A guy who makes too many excuses whilst pursuing you is not worth your time. He will make excuses for not making time for you. More so, for not taking you on a date. A real man makes a plan...all the time! Yes, the economy is atrocious...a complete nightmare! Does that mean that humanity stops? Y'all,  we have procreation to continue until the end of time. A season of a recession, shouldn't hinder dates, relationships and the whole nine yards that come with that package. Couples over centuries overcame obstacles such as family feuds, classism, racism, tribalism, religious differences etc. They all found a way around those challenges. Any guy who uses 'in this economy' as an excuse is dropped like a pin. Honestly, such an individual lacks ambition and creativity. I want the flowers, chocolate, and the date. Otherwise...skrrr! You will have to show innovation in your pursuit. If you can't be strategic w

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 'W

Chocolate!

Oogling and drooling as I lust after the delicious,yummy chocolate abs of...gush...Trey Songz in a music video. My male friends look at me as if I'm some perverted male...maybe I am. Sadly as a woman such men are just a mirage in a desert full of pot bellied men.Yes,I said it!I believe I speak on behalf of my sisters,who have been termed 'overambitious',and having high standards in the looks department.We would love to see more abs and less flab. Why our brothers keep mount Everests of flesh I fail to understand.Worse still,men boobs that could hold shares in a dairy company. Who would blame me.I become a pervert because Usher's six-pack makes me want to eat of it,or I'm actually envious of Generations' Queen Moroka having 'Muscle man' Lungile,hold her in his arms.Yes,guilty as charged! What my brothers should understand is most women already have stuffed toys,a new addition in the form of a man is not adorable.A little working out w

Dirty Laundry Diaries: Hurts Like a Mother F***er

My humanity will let me hurt as much as I can and be unapologetic for it… I never thought that I would find myself at this place again. Over the past few years, I learnt the word ‘No’ and embraced my power to reject mediocrity. Be it work, life and even romantic relationships. Sigh! I recently found myself breaking almost every rule of every self-help book that I’ve read. Reading is supposed to empower you with knowledge and also help you with making better life choices! Anyway, I recently had to break it off with some guy because of ‘incorrect assumptions’, when will I ever learn? "In my own rule book,   CONSISTENCY is very important." In my own rule book, CONSISTENCY is very important. The moment that there is lack of consistency during the dating period or in a relationship it’s, “Off with his head” (In the voice of the queen of hearts). Sic! But what started off well, ended up like the familiar script that I have writing about for a long time. As Whitney
