I dont care if the "Angry Drunk" Facebook page meant for it to be a joke. The meme was something like "what's want the women's  equivalent of a man cave? The kitchen." After what some guy said to me at the 7-11 tonight, I see the meme from the Angry Drunk fb page. Want to see an angry sober woman? Stand back, here comes the rant....

That "kitchen" better have beer, motorcycle and martial arts magazines, a throwing knife target, pool table and a GUY to laugh at as he's getting flustered because he can't even boil water. The dude would be slightly useful if he can make a good BLT or a good vodka Martini (and not with cheap ass vodka)....or if he stands IN FRONT of my throwing knife target without pissing himself as I throw knives around him, and making excuses for why I should wash his pants and Huggies underwear.

Oh, what? He doesn't even know how to use a washer? Probably because he can't get his Neanderthal misogynistic brain to listen to instructions from a woman for more than 10 seconds.  Figures, maybe it's because his mommy and his girlfriends did all his crap for him and now he thinks all women are good for are making sandwiches and doing his laundry.....all 2 pairs of jeans and 4 shirts with holes in them because he doesn't even know his jeans size....he just tries on jeans at Target till he finds junk that fits. And even then he'd have a hard time trying stuff on until he puts down his beer and porno magazine.

How's that for turning the tables? "Relax, guys, its just a joke."

"Just....a.....joke" some guys might say about the Angry Drunk meme...... trouble is, some men find "women-in-kitchen" memes funny. That, and they might think a woman who is "blammin' hot" shouldn't be able to kick their ass.

I saw this meme the same evening after some guy at 7-11 tonight tried to tell me what I should be wearing. I was getting a couple of bottles of water and this guy said to me "what's a pretty little gal like you doing wearing jeans with holes? That's not flattering...."

"Because I'm not trying to dress to meet your standard or anyone else's...this is what I wanted to wear, not what anyone else wants me to wear....that's why."

The dude laughs and says "Easy, baby, it was a compliment. No need to be rude."

Oh no he didnt....he didn't just call me baby did he? With his cheap ass gigolo stinky cologne, did he?  WTF. Mr. dress shoes and jeans and Levi's Jean jacket. Let's talk about "unflattering fashion", shall we?

"Wait, what....did you just call me 'baby'? Really?".

"Just sayin'....a guy can't even give compliments to a girl?"

"Okay listen, how old are you?"

"24"

"(laughing) I'm old enough to be your  mother! Would you want some slime ball to talk to your mother or sister that way? Wow, man."

The dude tries blah-blah'ing as I tried to pay for my things. My annoyed laughter begins. The cashier is just standing there listening to stinky-man. It's late, I'm "hangry", I just want my water and snacks and to get in my car and go home to sleep. But no, I'm now here venting on a blog.

Many might say that it's only words and to not let it bother me, but I've heard enough of "compliments" tonight. Did he think I was going to all flattered, bat my eyelashes and be nice to him?

What makes it okay to joke about women's interests being ONLY in the kitchen? Only in a Leave-It-To-Beaver world would that even be close to humorous. Jokes that hint at a "woman's place" need to be kicked to the curb, as does the men that think that is an acceptable stereotype. These types of jokes and memes only proliferate sexism and misogynistic attitudes.

That said, there will probably be a few men that will respond to this blog post with "Shut up, bitch" or "get a life and make me a sandwich", or "shut up, you feminist" (which, points to the possibility of those men having no clue what feminism is.

Okay, Rant over. Keep in mind, I am in no way a man hater or ultra feminist. Just don't tell me what I SHOULD be wearing, that's all. :)
