Can we go back to the days of courting? You know when the attempt that a guy made to be with a girl actual meant something and was sincere. I’d gladly give up the “hey ma” or the “hey sexy” or even the “hey beautiful” that is said to every other girl as they pass by. I’d gladly replace the pick-up lines with genuine thoughts and ideas because I’ve truly heard them all before. I am not an object and I am not something to be gawked at. I deserve a level of respect that is nowhere to be found by the many eyes that rest their gaze upon me. Looks of lust and desire don’t impress me. Looks of longing and infatuation don’t stir me. It’s the looks of respect that catch my eye. The guy that truly wants to “get to know me” and not what he thinks that I will provide. The guy that acknowledges me in a t-shirt and sweat pants, he is the guy I’m interested in. And when did my body become public property? When did grabbing my butt all of a sudden replace a handshake? Our society has progressed in so many ways but this is a subject in which we have taken a huge step backwards. Idolizing a female’s body does not equal flattery, or at least in my case it doesn’t. Call me old fashion, but I still want respect.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
