To Be or Not To Be.......Me

Yesterday I was skipping/skimming through YouTube. It's funny, but it really doesn't matter where you start, it doesn't take long before you stumble into some pretty bizarre content. I am constantly amazed by the breadth and depth (or lack of same) to be discovered here. Is the content truly endless? (I know some is truly mindless!) How much server space is used by all this? But I digress.....

I ran across a bunch of Vlogs posted by a T-girl, handle of karmatic1110. After ponging through several of the posts, I came to several conclusions. The main one being that I am so glad that I am not conflicted about my gender. Another is that it is incredible to contemplate the lengths to which some people will go for happiness peace of mind. Seems like all we really want is to be happy, but the harder we chase it, the more difficult holding on to it becomes. Kinda like holding butter in your hand....if you try to squeeze it, it goes away. What begs the question is this: seems like there are a lot more guys who wish they were girls than vice-versa. Is being a girl more rewarding? Or is the surgery just a lot easier? Perhaps men are more subject to the gender blender than women? I know there have been many women who lived life as men in the past, but I am not really sure if that is related more to sexual preference or economic consideration. The pirate Mary(Mark) Read comes to mind. Thank you, karmatic1110, for the insight into your world. I do wish you all the best.

Women really have a raw deal today. Everywhere you turn the message is the same. Stay young. Be a hottie. Like there is much of a choice. Men get distinguished, women get old. How many dollars are spent every day by women trying to slow or turn back the clock? Is this propagated by men or women? Everyone has heard of the 'trophy wife', but seldom is there talk of 'trophy husbands'. The women-folk have the good sense to rent rather than buy. Keep the man who is already 'broken to the bit' and won't be any trouble, and invest in a good massage once in a while. The guys, of course, have this need to show off, a universal pissing contest with no winners. Someone once said "Youth....... is wasted on the young."

Another thing....ever notice that the human animal is the only one that does not follow Mother Nature's path. Think about it. In every species except us, the male is the colorful one, the one with the magnificent mane or the glorious feathers, the huge horns or colorful markings. We are the only species where the female is the sparkly one. Twisted and un-natural if you ask me.
