So I read the preachy notes

of all these friends of mine, for analytical purposes and all, and I just cannot get over people sometimes. One of the things I read was about how women are all betrothed to jesus and all, and it goes on talking about how it makes sense for us girls and women to be pining for love and acceptance from men, because we are after all made of a rib of adam, and it gets to the point where I can't take it so I go here to rant.

Because NO. Yes, we are female. No, that doesn't mean we have to always be the one being protected. No, I honestly believe that we have a total right to be happy independent of any man. Hell, the fact that a man is always assumed is horrible.

So ladies, this Valentine's Day, how about we just chillax? For those of you with significant others, I'm happy for you. Just don't sacrifice yourself for anyone. And for the rest of us? Hey, take a day to remember your family, your friends, and the things in your life you love already. In the immortal words of Kevin G, Don't let haters stop you from doin your thang.
