Scatterbrainy

Philosophy(a) about literature, language and discarded moments from the junkyard of my mind

Women are planets that attract the wrong species..

Sometimes I get tired of all the hard thinking, the political ideas and the existential philosophy that is my genetic destiny. When that happens, nothing works better than real girl-talk. Obsessive, dramatic, out-of-our-minds bashing out our inner desire girl-talk.

Now, girl-talk is based on the premise of spinsterhood.

The whole point of it disappears as long as there's a stable relationship in sight (depending on the quality of vision). And I cannot hope to wonder if it is all just defensive /psycho-/babble...

Are we fooling ourselves, thinking we want highflying adventures, fireworks and perfectly crafted careers,

not wanting to be tied down and put in the iron cage (hrm..)?

Are we preventing ourselves from failure, saving face because we don't dare to go for the real thing, the twosomeness that seems to be the norm, the nuclear family.

Are we really that cynical?

And since when are we so afraid of not getting what we want?

Or do we really want to settle for independence, girl-power and reaching our dreams

without anyone permanently by our side?

/On the surface; an intelligible lie- underneath; the unintelligible truth/

You will be happy no matter what's your choice!

Not believe me! Listen:

this is exactly what i was thinking about the other day. its frightening to doubt the steel of our ambition. and you know, i honestly dont know. that scares me most of all.



i came to the conclusion that - a man who understands that i dont know is the man who is maybe worth the compromise. :)
