Things I Think Women Need to Stop Doing

by Eden on February 4, 2013

I’ve noticed that as awesome as women can be, they certain do a lot of things in this day and age that needs to come to halt.

I’m not trying to sound like a hypocrite, and I’ll admit, I need to stop doing some of the things on the list.

Here’s some things that women should stop doing.

 

Compliment Each Other

Seriously, girls need to do more of this.

Don’t be fake and evil and say you like some random girl’s hair when it really looks terrible just so you’ll give her the insensitive to wear it the same way again and be slightly worse looking than you.

But if you genuinely like another woman’s (fill in the blank), say so! I find it more flattering than when a man tells me because girls are so much more judgmental. And as shy as they may seem, that compliment might make their day. Everyone likes compliments, even if they won’t admit it. I also think guys like seeing girls be nice to each other and not all crazy cat-fighty. So not only will you make another person feel good, you’ll possibly look more attractive to cute boys.

Win, win.

 

Tan

Slight tans from vacation are fine, but seriously, I feel bad that they painted Oompa Loompas to look like Snooki,

I’m not here to preach about how UV rays can cause your skin to prematurely age and cause skin cancer, but just know it does that and it sucks once it happens.

Do yourself a favor and use a self-tanner instead.

 

Falling in Love With Assholes

Its strange that lots of women LOVE the chase and are attracted to complete dicks (pun very much unintended).

Hell, I’m even guilty of this.

Ladies, lets try hard to stop this. I know its tough, but we don’t want them thinking we like scum.

We deserve better.

 

Buy The Wrong Size

Just do it.

You won’t look thinner with a skinny-sounding number.

You’ll look weird.

Buy the right size!

 

Think They NEED to Move To Big Cities (ie New York, LA etc) In Order To “Grow”

Shows like the Hills, Sex and the City, and Girls are partly to blame.

Being  an LA native, I see this a lot. Girls (and people in general) flocking to make it big in fill-in-the-blank industry (usually actor, model, writer, musician, hipster, dragon, etc)

I love LA and I’m not trying to tell people not to come move here cause I love it, but moving a big metropolitan city because you think it will bring you fame is a terrible reason to relocate. I find that once they move here, I think they feel like they NEED to fit into the culture so they try to act “LA” (or whatever vision of LA they have in their head). Most native Los Angelenos aren’t “fake” or all in show business.

We actually have one of the top hospitals in the country and it wasn’t even used for a set for ER!

 

 

What do you think women need to stop doing? How about men?

Women need to stop ditching girlfriends the minute a guy comes around. I’ve both been guilty if this and see it happen all the time.

I think women need to stop being catty to one another. Heck if you want to wear plaid and stripes rock it! Who am I to judge (I heard an employee. At tj maxx yesterday making fun of someone in the store (behind their back of course) for this and I thought to myself I hope I get far enough away to not hear what they have to say about my outfit)

Wait…you mean moving to LA won’t help me in the dragon industry!? CRAP. What else can I do? Can you please write a blog post on that? Or I’d also settle for the unicorn industry, I suppose…

I think women need to stop explaining. I have an incredible urge to answer questions with a follow up explanation. “Are you going away this summer?” “Well, no, we are blah, blah blah, and my husband blah blah, and the kids blah, blah…” What the fuck is wrong with us? Why do we do this? “No. We are not going away.” or “No. I prefer meat.” or No. I will never paint my walls Navajo White.” Done. Move on.
