It's time for me to rant! Haha.... I have a thought that I want to speak. Something that's bugging me. And it's an issue with our culture.
Okay, so I was just on Pinterest a few minutes ago, and practically
everything that came up was some hot, muscled up cowboy (who really
isn’t…) shirtless, sweaty, hat cocked back, jeans slung low, saddle
slung over his back as he carries it, and a horse following behind….
Me: *blinks slowly* … am I supposed to like that or something?
Why do these people think the guys have to have hulk-like muscles to
be attractive? I’m not seeing it. (And I’m as straight as you can get,
mind you.) I saw another one of three ‘firefighters’ who were SHIRTLESS -
get that - and heroically walking away from their firetruck. Some lady
leaves a comment, “Looks like its time to burn my house down!” And I’m
sitting here wondering what happened to the well dressed, clean cut guy
with a shy smile and a good heart.
But NOOOO, everything has to be muscle and hotness and studness… is
that a word? >.— I don’t think it is, but I’ll use it anyway. ^_^
Don’t give me pounds of muscle - give me someone who does care about their body, but cares more about their soul.
Don’t give me nothing but hotness - give me a man that has a true
heart and a hotness that comes not from hours of working on their
bodies, but generates quietly from their personalities.
And don’t give me a stud - give me a true man who cares.
And I’m totally not against making anything hot between a married
couple - I’M ALL FOR THAT! - But I am against how women are viewing men
today. They’re viewing them as what men have been accused of viewing us:
toys.
There's nothing wrong with a good lookin' guy and a good lookin' girl, but when when it's idolized into THAT.... it's gone way too far.
Anyway, just needed to get that off my mind. It's irritating me.
