feminine double standard

By Jonas

it's funny how little things that would normally piss me off
until my skin would crawl away and shudder in a
dark corner of personal annoyance
don't
when the perpetrator is a foxy chick

she's all dressed in black with no bra
perky little tits pale skin and dark eyes

she's talking on her cell phone
with the speaker on
so she doesn't have to go to the trouble
of holding the phone to her ear

and i can do nothing but smile
as they she talks with her friend
about stinking rot in the bottom of uncleaned salt shakers
at the bar she presumably works at

if she were fat i'd want to gouge out her eyes.

    *chuckle* The two-liner in there made me slightly amazed that what ought to have been an annoyance was even noted. ;) I think I'd end doing the same thing if presented with the same thing >:). Nice write. :) ~L/S.D.

    Never underestimate the persuasive power of a pair of perky tits, no matter how annoying the behavior. Hot chicks get away with damn near everything.

    I think it's the sexual attraction double standard, and while there's so many examples and discussions, you summarized, simplified, specified- wonderfully.

    hehe... i can laugh... and did, more wryly than anything else. at least you aren't the only boy who does that... the foxy ones get everything, and the rest of us, well, we have to make ourselves useful.
