I, a 21 year old female university
student, speak out in class and (*gasp*) -- actually have an opinion. God
forbid a girl actually be intelligent and informed -- and if she is... she
had better not show it or risk the wrath of the student body -- especially
the complacent girls who (if they had any sense at all) would support
a standard of an educated well-and-out spoken female. Instead they sneer
and I, laughing and smiling at them, target their stupidity in class with
a well-placed retort. Questions like "Excuse me Dr.Woods, I'm not
like a geography major or anything, so where is the Rio Grande?"
(In an upper level Immigration History class) draw from me blatant eye-
rolling and head-shaking instead of a nice girl response, such as tolerating
any sort of stupidity with a smile and waiting for an authority figure to
deal with it. So, yes, I'm a big bitch.
I have a brain and I feel like using it. I tell off people who are trying to push me around. I've worked for years to be able to simultaneously support myself, go to college, and live by myself while being dependent on no one. I don't let pushy people merge on the freeway. I don't let busy bodies patronize me. I take care of myself. As a second generation bitch (thanks mom!) I was taught to always fight back and stand up for myself.
Sometimes I think that I have more the traits of a man than a woman - and then realize how SICK that concept is. Living in a society where women are stigmatized for being strong makes me not one of the girls men want to take home to mom. See if I care. I'm more interested in becoming a professional, getting an education, and doing as much as I can to improve the world we live in.
A bitch with authority - people had better watch the fuck out because
I'm comin' up.
Yes! I want to read more from Real Life Heartless Bitches
