Breaking Stereotypes: When The Man Is The Bed Hog

Sometimes, you just have to drop-kick him into tomorrow, take the blanket back, and regain your bed space.

We're all aware of the many memes and jokes that go around about women taking up all of the bed-space and stealing the covers.... well, as a married woman, I can tell you that it is NOT TRUE!


At first, he looks so sweet and innocent, just sleeping, not getting on your nerves, so you try to gently wake him and ask him to move over. Ya know, just a little shake and a tug on the blanket because you're still freezing. Nothing. Nothing happens. He doesn't even stop snoring. It's late, you're tired, you're cold, and you can't move more than half an inch for fear of falling off the bed but your man over there is sleeping like a baby. He doesn't even care. This is where you are left with a decision.

You can either sleep on the old, lumpy, hard, couch that does some SERIOUS damage to your back... OR, you drop kick him into tomorrow, take back the blanket, and your well-deserved portion of the bed! This may seem a little harsh, but what did we talk about earlier? WE are stereotyped as the bed hogs, you have already endured the 2inches of bed space, freezing toes, sleep deprivation, and his ridiculous snoring AND You have already tried to gently wake him! As far as I'm concerned, that's more than enough fairness. Sometimes, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do! [Below is a gif model that I have added that shows you how to effectively obtain what is rightfully yours]

If your man gets a little agitated after following this maneuver, just blame it on a bad dream ;) He'll just roll over, go right back to sleep, and forget all about it in the morning, and you will finally be able to sleep comfortably! It's a win-win!

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
