Summer’s over, Megadeath.

I don’t know what this means, but I like it.

I’m going to be Dave Mustaine for Halloween (my boyfriend is going to be James Hetfield) (I’ve been excited about this since Nov 2009)

I’m a very different woman. I prefer to party with the men. I play the REAL video games (rather than those facebook things that somehow disgrace our earth), I like to party it up, I even scrap with a few of my guy friends often. It’s even come to the point where if a guy punches me dead in the face from sheer anger, he’s not gonna get any flack for woman beating, I’ll just go back at him and people will egg the both of us on. I’m pretty much a male with the woman body works.
Here’s where it starts to get a little distasteful to maybe some woman. I have a beautiful body, and I tend to show it off as much as I can. Pretty much all of the guys I know have seen me naked at some point, and most of them I’ve slept with multiple times. Nothing really gives me more of a thrill than pleasing a man or making them drool.
But through all that, in the end I want to be able to play a very house-wife role with my love. Make sure his laundry is done, food is cooked, pretty much meet all of his demands and make his life as stress and work free as I can (besides any steady job he may have). Constant sex is not an issue to me either.

An introductory post from a predominantly feminist forum I used to frequent. This woman’s username was “The Guys Girl”.

She is a very different woman, and don’t you forget it, all you other rubbish women!

This almost sounds like a troll making up a character for a puppet account so he can play jokes on all the mean mean feminists who are just out to get the pretty girls who like sex.

I use USian in social justice writing when I’m referring to the US specifically. It’s not my favorite word in terms of the way it sounds, but it’s more accurate and not erasing. Example: in this post yesterday, I referred to “The American Dream” as USian because it’s specific (if not unique) to the United States.

But that doesn’t mean I no longer identify as an American. American is still an accurate and valid identification, because like people in other parts of South and North America, I do live on this continent. And because the word American is lovely to me, like my other geographic identifications of Kansan and Virginian.

Perhaps in the future, instead of using USian to denote my national identification, I will use an adjective to modify and specify. I love adjectives.

Stateside American. I like that. I think I’ll use that from here on out.
