What'cha thinking?

Last night I was reading an article in Glamour magazine. Not the most political magazine but it can make you think. The article was called "10 questions about life as we know it". ( I'm posting 9 because I feel one is not appropriate. It's hard to believe that some of theses things are true. Look at the world we live in! Here are a few things to think about:

1. Why does Snooki make more money in 2 episodes than most teachers earn in an entire year?
2. Skip- not important!
3. Why is everyone worried at Jennifer Aniston getting marries again and having kids when George Clooney is in the same situation and obviously doing fine?
4.Why is congress defunding birth control for women but promoting is for horses? ( I couldn't believe this!)
5.this one was stupid!
6. Why do female Doctor's in New York earn $17,000 a year less that a male M.D.?
7.Why is it that woman host talk shows during the day- and often in groups- while men get to do it solo at night?
8.Why does everyone insist on calling guys who drink too much, beat their wives, and spew venom "bad boys"? They are bad men! Recess is over people!
9.How did noisy, crunchy popcorn become the standard movie theater snack?
10. Really not appropriate!

Some of these make you take a step back and think. Maybe we haven't come as far as we believe in woman equality. Maybe we are buying in to reality "whores" rather than putting that money towards education! (In fact many reality "whores" have no education!) These may sound more intersting to the woman that read this rather than the men, but look at it through the female eye! Besides, did you realize all this was taking place?

Blog you later!

  1. Why do you think it's ok for you to edit the article for readers? Maybe you think folks can't judge something inappropriate because they are uneducated 'whores'?

  2. I edited the article because I did not want to post some of the things on my blog!

  3. But you leave out relevant parts of the article and present a biased view. But I guess that's what the blog is, after all.
