QUESTIONING INDEPENDANCE

http://youtube.com/ABLACKMANSVIEW

NO MATTER WHERE WE GO OR WHAT WE DO WE ARE GOING TO ALWAYS RUN INTO VERY IMPORTANT PROBLEMS. AND TODAY IS NO DIFFERENT. THE TOPIC BEING INDEPENDENT WOMEN AND WHY MOST OF THEM CAN'T HANDLE IT. NOW BEFORE YOU START "CURSING" ME OUT I'M GOING TO MAKE YOU UNDERSTAND THE REALITY OF THE SITUATION. WE WILL START OFF WITH A BRIEF HISTORY LESSON: ONCE UPON A TIME, IN THE EARLY 1900'S, WOMEN WERE REGARDED AS "HOMEMAKERS" AND "HOME-BODIES". MEANING THEIR ONLY JOB WAS TO GIVE BIRTH, READY THE HOUSE, PREPARE DINNER AND...HAVE A "TIGHT ASS"...NICE. THIS WAS THE CASE FOR MANY DECADES UNTIL THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT HIT, AND WHAT BLACK PEOPLE AND MINORITIES WERE FIGHTING FOR SOON BECAME THE GOAL FOR WOMEN AND HOMOSEXUALS AS WELL...RESPECT AND EQUALITY. SINCE THEN, THE AMOUNT OF WOMEN WITH PROFESSIONAL TITLES AND JOBS HAS NEARLY QUADRUPLED EVERY YEAR AFTER THIS MONUMENTAL EVENT. THE NEW PERSPECTIVE OF THE MODERN WOMAN HAS BEEN CHANGED DUE TO THE NEW OPPORTUNITIES, SHOWING "WOMAN-HOOD" AS HAVING A PLATFORM FOR INDIVIDUAL CHOICE INSTEAD OF ONE NATURALLY SELECTED OCCUPATION. NOW LET'S LOOK AT "INDEPENDENCE" AS A WHOLE: WEBSTER DEFINES "INDEPENDENCE" AS HAVING THE QUALITY OF NOT BEING AFFILIATED WITH A LARGER CONTROLLING UNIT; NOT REQUIRING OR RELYING ON SOMETHING ELSE; NOT CONTINGENT. WHEN WE FACTOR ALL OF THAT IN A FINANCIAL PERSPECTIVE WE FIND THAT THIS IS THE GOAL THAT WE ALL STRIVE FOR..."FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE!" NOW, FACTOR THAT INTO A RELATIOSHIP AND SEE WHAT YOU COME UP WITH. IF YOU DON'T SEE A PROBLEM, THEN YOU'RE EITHER NOT WORKING THE MATH RIGHT OR ONE OF YOUR VARIABLES IS OFF (I.E. YOUR WITH THE WRONG GUY). ALTHOUGH I'M PRETTY SURE THAT WHEN YOUR PARENTS TOLD YOU TO BE INDEPENDANT THEY MEAN'T FINANCIALLY THERE ARE PROBABLY SOME OF YOU WONERING "WHY???". WELL, BECAUSE UNLESS YOU COME FROM ANOTHER PLANET,OR YOU'RE AN AMEOBA, YOU CAN'T REPRODUCE ON YOUR OWN. BUT WHAT IF YOU DON'T WANT KIDS? THAT'S EASY...YOU DO, YOU JUST DON'T REALIZE IT. WE ARE ALL PROGRAMMED TO "WANT" TO HAVE KIDS AT SOME POINT. FOR WOMEN IT'S "MENOPAUSE" AND FOR MEN IT'S A "MID-LIFE CRISIS". THEY BOTH ACT AS A FAIL-SAFE TO ENSURE THAT OUR SPECIES SURVIVES, EVEN THOUGH THERE HAVE BEEN PEOPLE THAT HAVE GONE THROUGH LIFE WITHOUT BEARING CHILDREN. BUT FOR THEM IT WAS EITHER THAT THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO OR THEIR WILL WAS STRONDER THAN NATURE'S. YOU CANNOT DECLARE INDEPENDENCE FROM THE "WANT" TO BE WITH SOMEONE BECAUSE IT JUST WON'T WORK. YOU CAN'T ASK TO BE WITH SOMEBODY AND AT THE SAME TIME TELL THEM NOT TO "BOTHER" YOU...THAT'S WHAT "BOOTY-CALLS" ARE FOR. AND UNLESS YOU'RE LOOKING FOR THAT YOU WILL NEVER FIND SUCCESS. YOU WILL ALWAYS RECIEVE THE EXACT THING THAT YOU ARE PROFESSING TO PEOPLE...TRUE INDEPENDENCE. THE POINT OF IT ALL IS TO GET YOU TO REALIZE THAT YOU DO NEED US, JUST LIKE WE NEED YOU...FOR SOMETHING. IT'S OK TO BE A LITTLE DEPENDANT ON SOMEONE. WE ARE ENGINEERED THAT WAY. SO LET'S LEAVE "INDEPENDENCE" WHERE IT BELONGS...IN THE BANK. NOW GET OUT THERE AND "MAKE SOME BABIES"...OR HIT ME ON THE EMAIL AT AGTHEFUNKYBLOGGER@GMAIL.COM. OR ABLACKMANSVIEW@GMAIL.COM IF YOU WANT THE COMGLOMERATE'S "VIEW".
