I'm A Nasty Woman, And Proud Of It

For those who are feeling discouraged.

I'm A Nasty Woman, And Proud Of It
Olga Shvartsur

For every woman, person of color, LGBTQ+, persons who are disabled, and all others feeling victimized:

You may be my president but,

You are not a reflection of me. I will never support your bigoted beliefs. Your actions and words don't align with mine. Your blatant disrespect for minorities does not reflect my love for all people or all walks of life. Your discontent toward the LGBTQ community does not display my acceptance for all. Your disregard of global warming is disheartening to hear. Your mocking of the disabled does not show how compassionate I am.

You may be my president but,

I do not owe you respect after the disrespect that has been spewing from your mouth since the minute you began your campaign. I do not owe you support because you do not support me. I see your plans; I see your future and I do no accept what will come.

You may be my president but,

As a woman, as someone who cares about women, I refuse to listen to your openly sexist remarks. I do not owe you my body, though you may think otherwise. I do not owe you respect because you are a man. I do not owe you anything, simply because of my gender.

You may be my president but,

You are not for me and I will NOT get over it. You do not reflect me and i will NOT get over it. Call me stubborn, call me dumb but I won't shut up, and I won't back down. I will roar loud, so be prepared.


Sincerely,

A Nasty Woman

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
