now this blog entry is gonna suddenly, sporadically switch from the topic of teeth to 2 specific girl-women. one, i've blogged about before. one i have not.
Girl #1
my first impression of her was - Impressive. It was not a bad impression. More like an intimidating one. I immediately knew she and i would not have the same kind of friends. She had been a leader in many organizations and events. Has a nice, low voice. loves high-end stuff. intelligent. great clothes.great figure. great hair. mole. commands respect and attention.
all the above i knew before i knew the next thing about her - So down-to-earth and comfortable. she's everything but she never says it. she knows it. and im sure she's proud of it. but i've never seen someone handle the fact of their achievements so well. with humility (and u can't fake it coz it'll show in your actions and words) yet without being overhumble. she's comfortable. confident.
and we talk. and she likes me. amazing.
Girl #2
never met a more interesting christian girl den her. totally assertive. constantly on the brink of offending someone (or so her friends and her say, but i don't really feel so) slave-driver. over-anxious and frenetic (ya worse den me). can do 20 over drafts for her essays from scratch. usually doing her work. doesn't spend huge amounts of time with ppl. often not present for events and if she is, she'll expressly actively push everyone to hurry up.
FINALLY. i see a living example of Not All Christians Come In The Same Packaging. and she's a real follower i tell u. so fired up and passionate about the word and spreading it. amazing lah she. i usually ask guys for advice in certain matters that i want answers for coz they are more logical, less emo. But this girl, i will definitely go to for advice.
apparently. being guyish, achievements-motivated and workish doesn't mean i'm a man. i've been wanting to be a boy for a few weeks now. but i think i've finally stopped. thank God. and i started being interested in guys again. i've actually begun noticing a few of them. YAY! back to normal.
Being guyish and all is fine dear. Just coz you're more determined and work oriented doesn't mean you're a man. It doesn't mean that the least task oriented guy must be more task oriented than the most task oriented girl. There's plenty of overlap here. In more scientific terms:
ReplyDeletePsychological studies have shown that 30% of women are more aggressive than 50% of men.
All this aggressiveness and task orientation stuff is just what the world tells you is a guy thing. It's not true in every country, for in some lesser developed places it is the roles are inverted.
So all this talk is just about thought. What remains constant though, is biology- what you were born with, and how you use it- that's what makes you a girl, and a heterosexual one.
K i think i over commented today.
