Enlighten me: Pigging out edition
October 22, 2009 | 11:15AMWhat I wrote last week may sound like a funny little experience but it is actually a big deal to me. My bitching goes deeper than just pigging out.

What I don’t understand is how people always assume that I eat small portions, or should I say, lady-like portions. I think that’s unfair! I, too, would like to enjoy the other sinful and better tasting stuff. I bet if I were a man, people wouldn’t give a damn if I ordered the entire kitchen.
Who the hell started the expectations of women feeding on modest food servings? I’m thinking, it has to be the same people who believe that women should not run their own company, and that women will not excel in a machinery business dominated by balls and dicks, and that women with reputable reputations should not post sexy photos in the net, and that women who post revealing internet pics are whores-for-sale.
These people just seem to know that every woman’s destiny is to wear floor length skirts and take care of homes and children. Anything outside of that is just taboo.
We may be modern in many ways but the age-old machismo mindset is still prevalent in society today. It’s the idea that some women who are actually in control of their own lives and succeeding in a man’s world screw up the natural balance of mankind. People, there is just too much room for men in mankind. Heck, even the word, “mankind” has to have “man” in it. We need more dominant and respectable women strutting their asses in the net, and more importantly, in society. And if this means that I have to stuff myself silly more often or start a movement to ban the word, “mankind” in the English language to prove a point, so be it.
Am I just exaggerating? Is it just me or do you share the same observation that, on this day and age, we are still living in a society that favors men. I want to know what you all think.
Readers, enlighten me…
