bad bitch takeover



Kelis is the baddest bitch. She's been ridin' the beat like a bicycle since long before Gaga, Rhianna, or Nikki. The world would be so much different/better if bad bitches like Kelis were in charge.  I hope we get to witness a bad bitch take back of this horribly unbalanced and confused culture in the very near future.  The Boss Bitch Revolution of 2011.  2012?  Los Angeles is the best city for a bad bitch takeover to originate in. Paris and Miami would be allies.  Not to mention Rome or Rio.  The problem is that we have to stop fighting from within, organize with the fire of Kali and the fascination of Medusa deep inside us all and get bossy.  Give 'em a taste, they'll want some more. This is difficult when so many of us still have fights within ourselves, not to mention within our relationships.



Yes, magic happens when the genders unite.  Unfortunately, that seems next level for our culture at this point. It's impossible for over 50% of our adult society to live in harmony with the opposite gender on a personal level.  If only one gender can hold the power it must be the women, the creators and nurturers of life.  Looking around, I see that so many archetypal relationships are out of whack.  We are disorganized- in thought, in attachment, in communication. The earth needs to get knocked around a little, kicked off it's axis and determine a new center that we all spin around.  I would really like for bitches like Kelis to be at that center. Diamonds on her neck, diamonds on her grill.

  1. I find many women continually look for boys or guys, not men. This pains me to no end. The definition of a real man has been skewed and buried culturally on both sides, and the loss of this has been felt and seen equally - in the identity shadows of males and in the frustration of females.

    The male gender has few positive and reinforcing models to follow during development. Many of the seemingly negative male traits get rewarded with attention anyway, so how do we stop this nasty perpetual backflow? Even as I near age 30 I often hear, "This boy/guy treats me like crap for X reason..." Well of course he does - he's not a real man (yet), just a boy/guy doing what boys/guys do. Just like we don't expect a cow to shit a diamond, we should not expect a boy/guy to have the maturity and awareness necessary to treat a woman like a man would and should.

    I love Kelis and her energy too, though her lyrics often speak of boys not living up to her expectations of a man. All of this is just my opinion, and as a male paraplegic I'm culturally considered an "it" and half-a-man at best anyway, though I heard a rumor once that real men do exist.
