Women! Cut the Self-Deprecating Bullshit!

That’s it. I’ve had enough. Two plus years of Zumba women. Nice ladies. But ALL of them, and I do mean ALL, complaining about their bodies. I’m gonna puke if I hear another  woman say: “I’m fat”, “I have a fat ass”, “I need to lose weight”, “I lost 10 pounds but I need to lose 10 more”. And if you include my whining girlfriend, seriously, my head’s gonna explode.

Amy Schumer has it right. She shits on men… deservedly so. But she’s also all over women for their boring, daily, self flagellation about their bodies. She knows what we men are thinking and want to say. Actually, we want to scream: “Can you women just shut the F up about your bodies?!” You’re the ones who constantly rant about men being dogs. That we’re just interested in sex. Yes, that’s true. We objectify women. Guilty as charged. Yes, we’re shallow and superficial. But why do women allow themselves to care so much about what a bunch of dolts think?  You’re the ones who carp about feminism, and are so proud of being strong and independent. Even millennial women won’t vote for Hillary just because she’s a woman. I think they should, if only just because men have ruled our country forever and a woman deserves a chance to screw up too. But women get offended if I make that suggestion.

Let’s try ANOTHER suggestion. From now on, if someone, anyone, man or woman, complements your looks, your hair, or how you look in a dress…simply say “thank you”. Try it. Oh….you can add something else if you want to, like “that was very nice of you to say”. But, please, PLEASE don’t put yourself down. Accept the F’n complement. Because in most cases, it is given sincerely. Not just to be nice. But because women have a natural allure to men. It’s a broad range of attractiveness. And I’m not including the Vogue magazine idea of attractiveness. Skinny models are not sexy. That cold thin image is not  really attractive to men. Take it from me. A man. We like women that are real women…. with confidence in their bodies. Especially if they smile a lot. Men LOVE women who smile. And laugh at our jokes. Try smiling. Be natural. Be confident with your body. That’s attractive. Now say “thank you”.
