Chloe
I'm a Heartless Bitch because, firstly, I cannot stand other people's stupidity and ignorance. I'm at university and living in a halls of residence with possible 15 of the most self-obsessed, ignorant, immature and selfish people I have ever met. Most of the boys (can't bring myself to use the word "men" in this case) are deeply self-absorbed and irritating, but it's the girls I can't stand. I hate the way they squeal, act "cute," talk in fluffy little voices, and giggle manically at every lame joke told by a guy. Most people are supposed to socialise primarily with the people they live with. I just can't bring myself to do this. I've always tried to be a strong person, not dependent on anyone, male or female, for personal happiness--I am happy when I try hard at things and succeed. Most of all, I refuse to put on a demeaning act in order to be "one of the girls" and therefore accepted by the group. I've found my own friends who, like me, do not think getting a boyfriend and screaming hysterically at everything he says is particularly bright. By living with the girls that I do, I can see clearly why many guys think that girls are nothing more than pretty little bits of fluff who, apart from the obvious, are not really all that important in the grand scheme of things. This is so wrong. I've always tried to be sensitive to others, but also to strive for success and achieve the most I can. I think this is all anyone can do, and that if you don't have goals, what have you got to keep you going?
I would never change who I am for anyone. I have strong opinions on many things, and I will only change them if I feel I have misjudged the situation, not because they are different than those of others. I can't tolerate people who are weak-minded and ignorant, and some of the comments sent in by men who are rubbishing this site admittedly made me laugh, but also, rather worried. There is still so much discrimination in the world, but women have to fight against this by educating people through their own successes. This is what I try to do. I refuse to be dependent on anyone for emotional or financial support, and, although I have a fantastic, loving partner, I run my life on my own terms and am proud to do so.
