I occasionally peruse others blogs, a handy list of which can be found under the title Interesting Blogs According To Me. Two of these blogs, Violent Acres and Wide Lawns and Narrow Minds, will soon be disappearing.
I am bored with them. So very fucking bored. Also I never really expected them to be narrow minded. Apparently it's okay to be judgemental, according to W, so that's my judgement.
These two women think anyone who has a child out of wedlock is a slut. V thinks they should be hidden, ashamed to be pregnant without a husband. Not just a partner but a husband. Because obviously marriage is forever and never falls apart, sayeth the second wife. And according to her if you are not committed enough to marry someone you shouldn't have kids with them. This is a paragraph or so after she points out that marriage is no real commitment , you can always get a divorce. So why then does she think the marriage part is so fucking important in the first place ? What about just having an adult relationship of depth and meaning bitch ?
What is the problem with people having their kids at their weddings ? If the kid is old enough to be a flower girl/ring bearer/whatever then obviously they are committed. They have been together at least 9 months before the kid was born, and, one would assume, intending to stay together. Perhaps marriage wasn't financially viable to begin with, perhaps they had better things to spend their cash on like, nappies, baby clothes, baby food. Nah, that marriage was way more important than actually providing for their child.
According to W single women and teenagers are having children 'cause we stopped telling them it was wrong. Last time I checked the good ole' US of A was a big promoter of sexual abstinence. Isn't that a federal government sponsored thing ? Didn't it expand from it's teenage focus to single adults too? Don't have sex until you're married. So not so much on the telling them it's okay then. Oh yeah, and it makes you a slut. As long as your not wed 1 sexual partner is enough to make you a slut in the eyes of these fucktards it would seem. Perhaps teaching teenagers about contraception could be a plan ? 'Cause it's apparent that telling them not to have sex isn't working if, as you say, loads of teenagers are having babies. Then when they grow up to be single adults they will still know about contraception. Joy.
Does it matter if consensual sex occurs between two people who are married, just to someone else ? Not that I approve of such behaviour, it's just a question.
I have decided I can't be arsed thinking about the points of view of these two any longer.

If Judgemental Is Okay Then Here's My Judgement

D'you know what? I've just read the post that you are talking about and I have to say that I agree with every point you've made!
I was a great fan of both these sites because I enjoyed their writing style blah blah blah, however, lately, for V especially, there's been a helluva lot of contradictions in what she's been writing and it's made checking her site out more of a chore than a joy.
Ach, I'm having that 'jaded' feeling with Violent Acres myself hunny and after the post I've just read, perhaps the 'non-judgemental, judgemental Wide Lawns is a blog that's lost interest for me.
Well written post as usual!
xxxx
ps I'm married with a child and I STILL disagree with what she wrote!
xxxx
I just got fed up with the drivel. And yeah, V's seeming inability to stick to one persona. One minute the she's all kick ass, I don't give a shit about your opinion, I'm writing this 'cause I feel like it, and then she tells us she's their to entertain us yada yada yah. As to W, well I made my decision on the "guest post" on V's site (is it just me that thinks that's lame ?) and the fact that my visits to her place were becoming more and more infrequent.
Get married, don't, have kids, don't, whatever works for you. Those two pissed me off 'cause they seem to think that theirs is the only way, and that they can judge people who don't do it their way. There is no need to get married these days if you don't want to.
I'll stop now. Safer that way.
I like you more and more!
Amen.
Oh, and please let me know how The Rabbit Factory is.
Wasn't sure I was your sort of person Rim', or did you mean to post that on someone else's site ? Always enjoy the appreciation for my mad ramblimgs though.
So far The Rabbit Factory is very enjoyable. I'll let you know how it goes.
Hey Rim', I popped over to your place, found your birthday had been lurkin' about and wanted to say happy birthday but your site required my email. We are not on an email level so I hope you actually come back and get this.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RIMSHOT
Not my sort of person?
I'm now quite curious as to what 'my sort of person' would be in your opinion.
Thanks for the birthday wishes!
Hey Rim', I could be totally wrong in my opinion of "your sort of person" but since this is my third frickin' attempt at publishing this crap I may not be too graceful about this. I also apologise if I have made assumptions that are untrue.
I am, and I have asked others, a fairly opinionated woman, I can't be arsed with religion (what ever denomination, deity) you want to go for but am all for personal faith, I can't be bothered with people who think that their way is the only way, I am a feminist (apparently fairly rabid according to some people, but sometimes having an opinion and a vagina makes you risky). I am very drunk at this time, where I have f*cked up please let me know.
Let me know what you think.
