| if you're a ladies' man, i'm a men's lady. but that doesn't make sense grammatically. hmmm. |
YESSSS. i'm flexible and strong, like a grass that bends in the wind and.... shit.
but yes, i've been going for yoga every other day (cuz i need 1 day to chill those aching limbs). hardcore, spartan regime man. and i fucking love it! i love the ache i get after every session, just like the way i love cutting my nails too deep or plucking out hairs from my arm or tasting the blood in my mouth (god i sound like some sado-masochist here. but really, i am not. not an avid fan of pain, but just enough to make me feel alive). am becoming quite the contortionist indeed. brings back memories from 10 years ago...
soon i'll be able to fall asleep while doing a hand/shoulder/head/finger-stand! (right.)
anyway, i was just thinking, how come is it that guys who sleep around are called "ladies' man" and all sorts of ego-boosting chauvinistic shit, while girls who do are called "whores" and "sluts"? that's not very fair or nice, is it? it's quite mean, really. so much for gender equality. while i am very aware that they are words such as "manslut" and the such, these still draw on the origin of the female-degrading words. bloody male-dominated world.
i think that's a side-effect of too mch margaret atwood's feminist writings. but her novels are so good. "alias grace" made me cry and i'm working on "oryx and crake" now. thank god for second-hand english bookstores. come to think of it, there are many second-hand english things stores here. hmm.
do i panic too much? |
