I'm a Heartless Bitch because I do not allow men or women to set the
standards on how I define my role in life. I do not cower and shrivel
like a little flower when a man tries to manipulate, dominate, or
otherwise abuse my person. I state exactly what I feel and generally
speaking, those feelings are contrary to how a woman 'should' act.
There was a guy at my work who liked to put his arm around the 'ladies',
squeeze them and call them honey, baby, sweetie, etcetera. It made me ill
to see these women cringe but never say a damn word! Well, as luck would
have it, this guy tried his moves on me one day. I peeled his arm off of
me, none to gentle, and said, "I might be flattered by your attention if
you didn't smell like a pig rolling in his own shit, but since you do, I
am not flattered, and oh yeah one more thing, you do not have any right,
or my permission to touch me ever again." The guy called me a bitch and
walked off but he and others like him at work, never troubled me again.
My co-employees were swift with their praises towards my actions but
they in turn called me a bitch when I gave them a hard time for not
standing up for themselves. Go figure!
I do not hate men nor am I inclined to bash them just for the sake of
it. I have been called a man-hater or a feminist, because I stand up for
myself, or when I try to be funny and tell man-jokes! But in truth, I
love men, and find their positive qualities very attractive. What
disturbs me the most, is that a woman who is intelligent, confident, and
opinionated is not as pleasing to men, yet they complain about not being
able to find a woman who can hold a conversation with them. That must be
a new come-on line because it would seem, generally speaking, that as
long as the package includes big boobies, shiny hair, runway model
body...conversation is not as important, for a while anyway.
The ultimate reason why I am a Heartless Bitch is because when he cried
on my shoulder about why I wouldn't let him move-in, or that I spent too
much time studying, or with my child, and not enough with him, or where
was I fifteen minutes ago when he called, I said, "My life does not
revolve around you, you can be a part of it, but you do not control it."
He called me heartless and needless to say... I am single but happy,
content and in control of my life and enjoying my freedom with the added
bonus of dating when I want to.
Thank you for your time Heartless Bitches International, and I
appreciated the articles I have read on your site, especially the ones
on the "Nice Guy Syndrome," very enlightening.
Sincerely,
Tamara Bennett
