The Jerk Theory

The three day weekend/v-day weekend was pretty awesome. I went on three dates total, and had a lot of fun stuff go down in between. But that's not all that important I suppose. But then again neither is anything on this blog, so I guess what I mean is that it is not what is currently on my mind. This is. So today during my hour break I was sitting with the usual lady friends up on the second floor of the Wilk. (For the record, this rant is not directed towards them, nor any of the girls I call my friend) In the terrace down below there was a promotional going on for an upcoming workshop. The promotion consisted of a group of guys in a jello eating contest, but first they had to tell a story of being on a date with a "jerk." And I use that term very lightly, let me explain. So the workshop is being sponsored by the Women's Studies and the seminar is titled "How to Avoid Falling in Love with a Jerk." When the girl who is giving the seminar asked the guys to tell a story she said, "All right guys tell everyone a story of when you went on a date with, let's not say jerk, but a less than nice girl." After each guy tells the story and the jello eating competition finished the winner got a jar with cookie ingredients inside he could assemble. Then she got back on the mic and asked for girls to come up and "share a story of dating a jerk. Whoever has the best story gets this jar to make cookies with." Do the girls have to smash their face into a plate of jello? No. I am very proud of the women eating lunch in the Wilk today because only one would get up and tell a story, the other three stories came from staff that were helping out the girl in charge. So then she gives her workshop another plug and walks away. So basically this workshop is just another very bitter girl spouting about how all men are the enemy. The title alone pisses me off. "How to Avoid Falling in Love with a Jerk" if a girl cannot stop herself from falling in love with a guy that doesn't treat her right then her ability to decide other more important things should be forfeit. For example: voting. Feminists always piss me off. I'm all for equal treatment, but enough is enough. You got your rights, now shut up. Civil Rights, Women's Rights, Affirmative Action, all of these things have gone too far. So far, that now if I say a single thing against someone who is not white or male, then I am a sexist racist ignorant jerk. Look in the mirror idiots. To reference a poor review of Inglourious Basterds, the writer takes note of how Tarantino had turned the Jews into Nazis. The same thing applies here, yes slavery was bad, yes over powering males were bad, BUT IT IS OVER. Get over it! A man can hate someone who is black without being racist, he can treat a woman as an equal without being sexist. And another thing, feminists will fight like hell the second they feel they are being treated unequally, but if the man should fail to be chivalrous or polite in any way well watch out again. I will always open the door for a girl and all that respectful stuff because it is what is right, but for Pete's sake, Do Not Demand Equal Treatment That You Don't Want. If it was equal then businesses would not be required by law to hire X amount of female employees. If it was equal then women would be in the running with the men, and it would come down to a person's skills and not their race or gender. I am respectful to women and if I see a guy treating a girl poorly, I set him straight. Someone who beats up on any woman cannot call himself a man, but really feminists, get over yourselves!
Hopefully I haven't offended any women, because I did not intend to, but yall have offended me.
And now a shout out to my main man David's older bro,
"The Jerk Theory":
What in the world was I thinking
when I went and
bought you those flowers and candies
I was thinking that every girl wants a nice guy
Someone she can trust but I guess I was not right
What is wrong with me?
Or do I have to be,
a jerk so you'll want me?
A jerk so we can be...
Together happily
and it's time I'll miss use you
if you ask me nice then I'll even abuse you
frequently I'll tell you your fat and annoying
frequently I'll tell you I don't want a girlfriend
what is wrong with me?
Or do I have to be
a jerk so you'll want me?
a jerk so we can be
together happily
and I won't ever call you
and I will cheat on you whenever I want to
after that I'll tell you I'm sorry forgive me
then I don't know why but you'll want to be with me
what is wrong with you?
It's sad but it is true
You're forcing us to play
the same old stupid game
Cause you want what you can't have
so I have to treat you bad
I don't mean to be so mean
but your forcing me to be
a jerk so you'll want me
etc etc
And then you'll leave me and you'll find a man
He'll love you so much he'll ask for your hand
then I'll come along and treat you like you're trash
I don't know why but you'll still want me back
Oh what is wrong with you?
etc etc
