The good old boys club



At a time when equality should not be something we have to even discuss, we are faced with the same old crap just a more modern version of it.  It is interesting how we face it dead on in our worlds and almost forget to note how very imbalanced the situation is. So why is it that the boys get to flirt, stray, discuss their miserable marriages or lame girlfriends, go to strip clubs, pat girls booties and grab girls by their waists when it would be totally looked down upon if females were to do the same things?

Davilla was a power female, who did it all.  She had the family, the business, the success, the energy to give back and could hold her own in any discussion with a top executive.  Yet even she, being a serious business woman got her ass smacked, got told she shouldn't wear those naughty high heels with her skinny jeans, and got an eye brown raise when she was out partying with the boys.  Are we in the stone age?  The days when Fred Flintstone would head to the water buffalo meetings to get away from Wilma, while she sat home gossiping with Betty are long gone.  But we still have some of these same frustrations and the same, revived crap that really never died.
The reality is that Davilla and others like her should get some! They should flirt, go out with the boys, and do whatever the hell they want just like the boys do.  Why not?

a woman needs to do whatever allows her to be alive, authentic and happy and empowered. as long as she can live with the consequences and embrace all parts of her self. this old bullshit of what a woman should and should not do is from the past.
