Robin Thicke Hates These Blurred Lines

So I'm pretty sure all of you have heard of Robin Thicke's song Blurred Lines. It's one of the biggest songs of the summer and it's being played all the time. I like the song! It's catchy and fun loving. However, it's been all over the news for other, non positive things as well. 

Thicke has been accused of rapey song lyrics, stealing the back beat from the late Marvin Gaye, and for the song's provocative video.

So let's do a lyric breakdown shall we? 

"If you can't hear what I'm trying to say / If you can't read from the same page / Maybe I'm going deaf / Maybe I'm going blind / Maybe I'm out of my mind"

He's basically saying he's being as direct as he possibly can with this girl and since she can't understand it, he feels like he's going crazy. I'll clear it up for you girl, HE WANTS YOUR BODY!!!!

Throughout the hook, Thicke constantly says 

I hate these blurred lines / I know you want it / I know you want it / I know you want it

Robin hates when girls act like they don’t want him even when he knows for sure that they do. Which is pretty cocky and chauvinistic if you ask me.

His reference to “blurred lines” takes in many different meanings. It can refer to girls being interested in rough, dirty sex but having to maintain the good girl image. Hence, the lines between the good girl and the bad girl.

“Blurred lines” can also refer to the moral ambiguity of flirting with a girl Thicke knows isn’t single. Even if she’s in a committed relationship she’s a “wild animal” with independent thoughts, and thus her boyfriend doesn’t own her.

Many critics have complained that the song is degrading to women and I agree. It's not what he says directly, it's what he implies. Just because a woman acts like she wants you doesn't mean you have the right to take her. Say it with me Robin, CONSENSUAL SEX IS THE BEST SEX! 

Gainers

So I was going through the web and I ran across something called gaining and encouraging. I just....idk what to say. I read through the FAQ section and it was actually very interesting! It's weird that people engage on things like this but at the same time, I enjoyed reading about it. I learned a lot. Check it out!

"Whatever happened to REAL music?"

I hate when people say that! Like wtf is "real music"? The way I see it, there's only two types of music, music you like and music you don't. There is no such thing as real music or fake music! You don't have to like it, you don't even have to listen to it but you do have to respect the fact that nobody gives a damn about your shitty ass opinion!

Lmao Craigslist!

Remember when I said people post the creepiest things on Craigslist? I rounded up some of the weirdest posts I found and I just.....I can't even deal!

BDSM and All That Other Shit Pt. 2

Hi loves!

I see a whole lot of people liked the first BDSM post I did, (32 views on that post alone) so I decided to do another one. It's fun to research these fetishes but it does make for a pretty weird Internet history. :)

Blood Suckers: Men who find sexual arousal from the vaginal bleeding of a female.
Omg this is BEYOND disgusting! I thought men found periods unsexy but apparently some guys are turned on by it. They thoroughly enjoy licking bloody tampons!!!!!!!!!  HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!! They're like modern day vampires! I don't even like dealing with my own period. I can't stand it! I can't even get through this post without gagging! Omg I just.....I can't deal anymore.
Would I do it? FUCK NO!
Weirdness Scale: 30

Looners: People who are sexually stimulated by or have sex with balloons. 
LMFAO! Are you serious? This is real? People actually enjoy this? My first question was "How do you have sex with a balloon?!?!' I soon got my answer.  Sometimes they design a vagina onto a balloon or
onto plastic pool toys, like inflatable dolphins etc. As creepy as it is, it's actually quite intriguing!  Looners consider themselves to be either a "popper", someone who loves to destroy the balloon, or a "non-popper", who would rather die than pop their balloon lol I don't understand people 
Would I do it? No
Weirdness Scale: 8

APTEMNOPHILIA: Getting aroused or excited by amputees.
Omg I just....please I can't even coment on this.

Would I do it? DO I REALLY NEED TO ANSWER THAT?!

Weirdness Scale: 15

APOTEMNOPHILIA: Sexual interest in being or looking like an amputee

WTF? Ok I need to stop. What am I doing with my fucking life here man?

My Crazy Weekend with Ask.fm

Hi loves!!!!

I had a crazy weekend! Friday night I went to a party with a friend from school. I had only seen her once since I'd been home so when she invited me I was like hell yeah! (Yes, I did actually say that. Judge me.) So we get there and it's a hotel party. No shade or anything but it's just a bit uncomfortable having so many people in such a small place. It was pretty cool though. It was kinda dry at first but I had my cup so I didn't really care.

After awhile, my friend was about to go outside and smoke and asked if I wanted to go. I don't smoke but I wasn't going to stay in the room with hella guys I don't know. (Party rule #1, invite more girls than guys because nobody wants to go to a sausage party...it's just crazy creepy.) So we all go outside and get in this guy's car, we'll call him Tae, because they wanted to hot box. After awhile, we had 3 blunts going between 5 people. I hit it twice but wasn't feeling it. Like I was bored with it. But just being in the car with these fools was hilarious! They were WASTED! We had to get sprayed with blunt powder to cover up the smell lol

Fast forward to about 12:30 a.m, some girl got ratchet and started yelling and some guy for trying to pay her to twerk on him lol! It was ridiculous like she clearly said, "I only twerk for a hundred dollars." then got mad when he actually pulled out the money! After that, the party got dry and eventually it got shut down by the cops! Tae got arrested and we got the fuck out of there as quick as possible! We hit up IHOP before we got back to her house and passed out about 4 in the morning. Epic ass night!

Oh and I logged onto my ask.fm the other day and I had questions I hadn't answered in months like there were 22 questions but only 3 had actually been answered. I just never actually check it that often to answer them. In case you don't know, ask.fm is an app you can download and people can ask you anonymous questions. There's honestly no real point to it except the fact that people grow some serious balls when they can say anything they want anonymously. So I decided to do this on my blog, If I get more, maybe it'll become a regular thing. I posted my link here for you hoes!

Craigslist Creeping

So am I a creep for spending hours on Craigslist for absolutely no reason? Like honestly if I'm bored, I go read through the personals section or the car sales section or any section that looks remotely interesting lol. (I actually have it open in another tab right now.) I have no real interest in replying to any if these posts but it's just fun to read through them.....or maybe I'm just that weird (O.o)

The personals section on CL is basically like where people post all the things they're afraid to post on regular dating sites, like creepy fetishes, fantasies, etc. I even saw a post titled "Get Your Green Card Here" -__- like really, we're trading marriage for U.S. residency now?!

Or the post by some guy about wanting females to sell him their used panties.....like currently being worn panties! LMAO like really dude? You want somebodies underwear straight off their ass? What if they smell? How much is he paying like does that change depending on the condition or type of panties? Would he pay more for a thong and less for some granny panties? lol I can't even deal! That's just creepy!

People are weird....

.

So yesterday I gave my boyfriend the link to my blog. He had asked me for it before but I just hadn't gotten around to it. (I have a horrible memory lol.) But what truly bothered me was the way I felt after he told me he read it. It was the most uncomfortable 30 minutes I've ever experienced. It probably wasn't even that long but it seemed to drag on FOREVER!

I felt so vulnerable. It was like being suddenly being exposed to the world. I was nervous and I felt like I was about to throw up. It was horrible. And then a thought came to me, "Why am I so fucking awkward?!" Why was it bothering me that he read something that I gave him permission to read? Then I realized, it wasn't him reading it that made me uncomfortable. I mean I never said anything on here that he couldn't read, it was the fact that I'm so much comfortable venting/ranting and just plain talking about my life with people I don't know than with people I do know.

I've always been that way and as far as I know, nobody close to me reads this blog and I'm perfectly fine with that. I actually planned it that way. I don't let people in. I don't like being open with those close to me out of fear of being judged. I think I give off this vibe that I'm a really strong, confident person. A lot of my friends have told me that they didn't believe I had insecurities which I think is a really dumb thing to say. Everyone has gets nervous. Everyone has moments in which they aren't the most confident person on the planet. But it's because I don't open up about things that my friends feel this way about me. I don't tell them I struggle so they don't assume I struggle. News flash: I am still a human being!

BDSM and All That Other Shit

Okay so on quite a few of my Craigslist creep sessions I noticed a lot of people have some really weird fetishes. Some of them weren't so bad like some of them I could live with if my bf was into it. But others were just plain disturbing! Now I don't really have a fetish anymore but it's still fun to learn about other people's. Now let's explore some shall we?

Golden Showers: The act of urinating on the body of or mouth of another person for sexual gratification or humiliation.
*gags* Absolutely disgusting! Now  there is absolutely no judgement of anybody who engages in this act, I just can't imagine myself engaging in it. It seems extremely disturbing and honestly quite degrading but apparently it's pretty popular.
Would I do it? NO
Weirdness Scale: 10

Golden Baths: The act of one partner peeing into the colon of another partner during anal sex.
This one is just as bad. I don't know if it's any more or less common than the aforementioned but neither of the two are up my alley like if I my boyfriend would do something like that, I'd be extremely grossed out! Pee belongs in a toilet! Not in someones colon!!!!!
Would I try it? NO
Weirdness Scale: 10

Sadism: Obtaining sexual pleasure from being cruel to or hurting another person/ enjoying inflicting pain, fear, or suffering on another person.

Now apparently, the pain, suffering or humiliation that is inflicted is real, not imagined and can be either physical or mental. Ummmm yeah I'm not really into it. I don't want to be humiliated when I have sex. I want the exact opposite actually. I'm open minded to trying different things but I can tell you this wouldn't be at the top of my list. I guess it works for some people but I'm not really one of them.

Would I try it? Eh doubt it

Weirdness Scale: 7

Dominance & Submission: Being sexually aroused by controlling another person or getting sexually  aroused by being controlled by another person

I've done this. I like this. I'm naturally submissive in relationships. I like being controlled sexually but to an extent. I honestly, think couples should try it if you're looking to spice up your sex life. It's fun but you need to know each other's boundaries.  There's a difference between being dominated and being dehumanized. 

Would I try it? Yes I have!

Weirdness Scale: 4

I could go on and on about the different fetishes people have but contrary to popular belief, I have a life. So with that being said, I'll be making my exit. *bows out gracefully*

*Just in case you're wondering what I meant by I no longer have a fetish, I mean it no longer interests me sexually. Now I'm not going to go into specific detail but I used to like really rough but still softcore dominant & submissive type of "encounters." I say softcore because I didn't do like bondage or whips, or chains and all that extra part. That's a line I don't want to cross.....

Oop!

Soooo sorry I haven't been on lately loves! I've had so much going on but I'll try to update you as much as I can....

So I told my mom about me losing my financial aid a few days ago. I ended up telling her on her birthday -_- and surprisingly, she wasn't really angry with me. It was mostly disappointment. She was irritated of course but I didn't get one of those "stern talking-to" type of conversations. I was more embarrassed than anything else. See, what drives me is making my parents proud. I mean they tell me all the time about how proud of me they are. I just feel like I haven't really done anything for them to be proud of....well at least nothing of any merit. Well then again I did graduate high school without getting pregnant so maybe that is pretty commendable in these days..... :)

We have a plan though and I know what I'm going to write in my appeal. Now I don't have any "extenuating circumstances" like they asked for but I do have some things I could say but if it doesn't work, I have a back up plan. I'll probably have to transfer to a community college or a school closer to home to get my credits back up before going back. If it works, I'll get my financial assistance back but I'll be on academic probation for 2 years. It seems extremely long but I don't care, I'll gladly do it and shut up!
