Sometimes I wonder about the role of the female within alternative society.  Are women &#8216;more respected&#8217; by alternative men, or are they still &#8217;sex objects who are meant to do chores&#8217;?  From what I understand, non-self aware females &#8216;just want to get married and birth kids&#8217;, even if it means that their husband is aloof and distant (as long as he makes at least $100K per year).  Sometimes I feel confused by the motives of alternative girls, bc it seems like even they &#8216;don&#8217;t know what they want.&#8217;  Somtimes I wonder if females can be &#8216;authentic alts&#8217; if they are using &#8216;altdom&#8217; as a rebellion against their parents.</p>
<p>I feel like mainstream women raising families, who are &#8216;trapped&#8217; in their situations might be stronger women than &#8216;lil alternative cunts&#8217; because they know how to put other ppl first.  I am not sure what alternative women want to be when they grow up.  Possibly something in &#8216;corporate retail&#8217;, or possibly &#8216;public relations&#8217;, or if they are lucky, &#8217;something artistic.&#8217;   I am not sure how much altGirls really want to independently &#8216;make it&#8217;, or if they would be happy &#8216;marrying some rich bro at age 26 just in case their life doesn&#8217;t pan out.&#8217;  </p>
<p>Not sure if AltWomen would know how 2 do &#8216;mainstream chores&#8217; like washing dishes, clothes, dusting, swiffering, cleaning toilets, driving vans, going to the store, planting flowers in the front lawn, living in suburbia, carrying a child, or other mainstream female duties.</p>
<p>Feel like I have always semi-ironically done &#8216;chores&#8217; and stuff, and sometimes used them as an excuse to bond with people from my local scene.  Like when me and all my &#8216;flatmates&#8217; would &#8216;get buzzed and do laundry.&#8217;</p>

<p><img src="http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd120/hipsterrunoff/photographs/sillykissers1.jpg"><br />
I feel like there is more pressure on women to &#8216;conform&#8217; to society&#8217;s expectations of &#8216;being clean&#8217;, &#8216;being happy&#8217;, and &#8217;staying tidy.&#8217;  Seems like it is more socially acceptable for a bro to end up being &#8216;really tragic&#8217; bc he is a 45 year old man who is &#8217;still trying to be alt.&#8217;  Not sure if altWomen&#8217;s flaws within alternative society make them &#8216;more functional within society&#8217; than altMen, but I think they might be a good thing for physical mental health.</p>
<p>Would yall rather be a boy or a girl?<br />
Do yall want a family with a happy home?<br />
What are ur expectations of women?<br />
Do yall honestly believe that women are capable of the same things that men are?<br />
Is society &#8216;bullshit&#8217;?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I recently saw this movie trailer, and it felt like &#8216;God&#8217; had decided 2 &#8216;make a movie abt my life.&#8217;<br />
<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/iFR4SgfqAFc&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;hd=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/iFR4SgfqAFc&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object><br />
Recently, I graduated from a Top 20 university with a liberal arts degree.  I was hoping to get a very good job after attending a prestigious school and getting meaningful life experience in a dormitory setting.  Unfortunately, things didn&#8217;t go as planned.  I ended up moving back in with my parents, and started to sexually experiment with &#8216;people who were losers in high school and just stayed at home.&#8217;</p>
<p>I was s00 confused&#8230;like I thought I was on the &#8216;fast track&#8217; 2 &#8216;being rich &#038; happy.&#8217;  However, I was &#8216;just another brick in the wall&#8217; of the American economy, and I didn&#8217;t really have any &#8216;real skills.&#8217;  Sorta just wish I could get paid 2 &#8216;be myself&#8217; and &#8217;share my musings&#8217; on current events (in 140 characters or less).</p>
<p>Just really starting to learn who I am, and how 2 &#8216;find happiness&#8217; in this world.  Guess maybe I should just &#8217;surround myself with ppl who love me&#8217; and things will &#8216;be alright.&#8217;  Sorta wish there was a &#8216;foreign man&#8217; who lived across the street from me who could share his knowledge/cock with me.  I wonder if life really is meaningful, yall.  Maybe I&#8217;ll know more abt life when I &#8216;find a real job.&#8217;  </p>
<p>Sad that my life may not  actually be what I thought it would be.  This is a movie about &#8217;settling&#8217; for less.  Sorta like &#8216;a more realistic version of <em>The Devil Wears Prad</em>a&#8217; for the &#8216;type of cunt&#8217; who would see this kind of movie.</p>
<p><strong>Previous Job Coverage</strong><br />

It&#8217;s weird to see girls when they have their arm in a &#8216;fancy bag holding position.&#8217;  It seems like they have a lot of &#8216;attitude.&#8217;  While I have seen this arm-position being utilized in photographs of famous celebrities skanks-who-are-in2-fashion, I feel like I have seen this pose more often in &#8216;lil cunts&#8217; who are &#8216;middle-upper-class but think they are rich. [via suburbia]&#8216;  Girls who are &#8216;into fashion&#8217; and &#8216;just want to seem really deep/cunty-in-a-cool-way.&#8217;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s weird to see people in public who &#8216;act like they are famous&#8217; or something.  Feel like people are &#8217;seriously disturbed&#8217; when they have mannerisms + personal branding decisions that can only be appropriated to &#8217;some1 trying to seem the way a famous person would act.&#8217;  Need 2 start exploring how &#8216;fame&#8217; makes me feel more often.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not sure if having ur arm in this cunty purse-holding position is a functional decision.  I feel like this  pose is often used when ur holding a large, heavy purse, so it is possibly a matter of &#8216;properly balancing a load.&#8217;   It seems like the broad might have to use her elbow to &#8216;keep the purse pushed back&#8217; so that she can &#8217;showcase her outfit.&#8217;</p>
<p>Seems like something that &#8216;high fashion bitches&#8217; do.<br />
<img src="http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd120/hipsterrunoff/photographs/45275.jpg"></p>
<p>Seems like a &#8216;fad&#8217; that &#8216;cunts&#8217; copy thereby spreading 2 suburbia.<br />
<img src="http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd120/hipsterrunoff/photographs/heidimontag-hermes-purse.jpg"></p>
<p>Feel like it might actually &#8216;be functional&#8217; if you are a &#8216;very small woman.&#8217;  But in that case, you should consider a &#8216;back pack.&#8217;<br />
<img src="http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd120/hipsterrunoff/photographs/eva-longoria-still-attached-to-her-.jpg"></p>
<p>Sorta just wish women would buy ergonomically designed purses.  Feel like women need to make better decisions being able to carry a baby in one arm, and baby supplies in the other.<br />
<img src="http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd120/hipsterrunoff/photographs/home-purse-closeup.jpg"><br />
It&#8217;s hard for me to understand why women need 2 carry &#8217;so much shit.&#8217;   I think they are insecure and &#8216;worry too much&#8217; about how they look.  Also possibly are worried about &#8216;getting/looking old&#8217; too much.  I wish that women who were obsessed with &#8216;life being terminal&#8217; would have a child, and shift their focus to &#8216;caring for a lil person who came out of their wombs.&#8217;  I think that is actually part of eVolution/the Circle of Life.</p>
<p>Feel very worried about women, and the stress that they are putting on their bodies.  Not sure if having &#8216;the arm&#8217; is a good personal branding choice.  I think that there are a lot of things wrong with the concept of a &#8216;purse&#8217; in the modern world.  Feel like women should try to be more like men, and just carry a wallet in their ass-pockets or something.  Maybe they would &#8216;feel more equal&#8217; and &#8216;less weighed down.&#8217;</p>
<p>Worried about the spinal cords of lil girls carrying bags that are too heavy.  Wish a designer would come along and change everything.  Wish men and women were &#8216;truly equal.&#8217;</p>
