Homophobic Women

Aloha fellow ugly people!

How's it doing? Okay, so today is going to be a slightly more serious blog (just to show you that I am capable of being serious from time to time and that I'm not a complete nut) and some of you might disagree with me on a lot of things, but that's good! I just found out that you can actually leave comments on blogs (how hectic is that?!?!?) so please leave your opinions and I shall do my best to squash your opinions as best I can :) (I'm only kidding... or am I...)

Today, we are discussing a topic that I find quite fascinating, and that is the fragment of the female population that happen to be Homophobic. I rarely come across this very rare and fascinating species (except when I'm forced to go to Church, but we all know that doesn't really count) and the reason why I find them so interesting are as follows.

A week or so ago, my friend Jess and I had this really in-depth academic conversation (I know, I'm such a cool gangster) regarding why main-stream society is so damn homophobic. To cut the story short, before you fall asleep on your keyboard, we came to conclude that it is because our society is, at it's foundations, essentially... are you ready for it... a PATRIARCHY!! OH MY GOOOOODDDDDDD!!! "Really Joshua? You don't fucking say. Thankyou captain obvious!!"

Just for your sake, I'll post you the video that really stimulated this discussion between the pair of us, it's by one of my favourite youtubers in the world, her name is Christina Rad, and she's such a sexy machine beast! Ahh I love her!

Ok, so back to the main topic of discussion. I get it when men are homophobic, they have small penis' and they want to make themselves feel big. Hating on gays is a way for men to feel better about themselves and more masculine, let's be honest here. They say random shit like "It's against my religion bro!!" or "Dude its just gross and unnatural!" But really, they just don't like the idea of gay sex (MENTAL IMAGE!) But when women make the exact same claims, that just freaks the absolute shit out of me!

Think about all the slurs used against gay guys: pussy, faggot, wimp, fairy, pansy, queer, and so on an so forth. What attributes do these indicate? FEMININE ATTRIBUTES!! When guys use homophobic slurs, they are basically teasing a male of being to much like a woman. What does this entail? THAT MEN ARE GREATER THEN WOMEN, AND MEN SHOULD NOT BE REDUCED TO THE LEVEL OF A FEMALE!!

Do you get my drift??? There are plenty of theories out there regarding the topic of homophobia, and it's absolutely fine to disagree with me, but I strongly believe that the hate towards homosexuals is rigidly and concretely a feature of our strongly rooted patriarchal society. That is, men > women. Woman is a lesser being, not to be compared to man. If a man acts like a woman or allows for himself to be subjected as such in his sexual life, he's less then dirt.

So, when women are homophobic, they are basically undermining themselves! They are letting themselves be controlled by masculine power.

I think what really spurred me to make this post is that I've noticed in the past few weeks a few girls making some very homophobic status' on Facebook. Not surprisingly, they are the kind of Facebook citizens that involve themselves with activities such as posting duck faced lovos, taking bathroom photos, uploading random shots of their head accompanied by some interesting love song quote that has nothing to do with them and checking in at a club 20 times in a single night, but nevertheless, it disturbed me.

I do not want to get into a religious or a 'what is natural?' debate, because it is quite pointless. Everything has been said and, as far as I'm concerned, both ideas have been squashed and proven completely and utterly flawed a thousand billion times over. But to put it simply, if you are religious, you wouldn't be attacking and hating on anyone you ignorant twat and, secondly, homosexuality is found in almost every single animal species on the planet and has been confirmed as a constituent of every single civilisation to have ever existed in history. It's not natural to fly, but humans have invented planes, but that does not make it wrong. And things such as rape and murder are obviously part of human nature because it has happened since ancient times, but that does not make it right. So natural doesn't equal right, and unnatural doesn't equal wrong.

But that is a side note, I take it as far as this: to be a homophobic woman is to be a woman subject completely to patriarchal power.

I don't know, I think I might have taken this whole situation slightly overboard, but do y'all see where it is that I am coming from? I mean, it is one thing to hear a boy using words such as fag and sissy, as wrong as it might be, but it's a complete different scenario if a girl chucks those words around! It's just so odd to me.

Not to mention the fact that the majority of homophobic men don't really have a problem with Lesbians, if anything, they seem to love them to piece (and I wonder why...). I should really make an entire blog all about my views on feminism and such, you guys would love it! I'm such a crazy child :D

Anywhoodles doodles, that's my two cents on the issue. Do you guys agree? (If you don't, piss off!) I'm only joking!

Ok, talk to y'all soon chickadees!

'Sluts' at Uni -.-

HOWDY Y'ALL!!!!

Ahhh what an exciting day it was today! So I was wearing my new pair of shoes, they're so hot, they're like these navy blue sailor shoes, and the bitches full rubbed against the back of my feet so they're like ultra sore now :( The things I do for fashion... Oh and today I lost my radio virginity! I full co-hosted a university radio show! The awkwardness of it all was hilarious, I don't think I have ever embarrassed myself as much as I did today on air! But pffft, YOLO!

Oh, and also, I would like to share a bit of feedback I got on my blogpost from a friend of mine I bumped into on the train the other day (its a small world on the bankstown line!) Her name's Lisa, and she said "As I was reading your post, I was thinking to myself "What the fuck are you reading right now?!" Thank you so very much for that Lees, I'm absolutely flattered!

Now, I am aware that the title of this blog may have offended y'all: "Omg what a rude disrespectful little brat Joshua is! Disgusting males and their patriarchal agendas! Women are allowed to express themselves however they want! bla bla bla!" And I completely agree with you! I use the term 'slut' very loosely, and I don't mind promiscuous girls one single bit! Go for gold (and I mean that in the dirtiest way possible). I even defended you sluts a few months back when I was in the car with mother. We were driving home at like 12 in the morning, and my mum saw these two chicks wearing close to nothing walking down the road. As she began to rant about them in arabic, I'm there sitting in the poor little passenger seat defending you guys and talking about womens rights and all of that jazz! The result was my mum call me a pansy. See the extents I go to for you guys?? However, what really really pisses me off is when chicks rock up to uni wearing tight little skirts, heels, a shit load of jewellery, and their bra is doing close to nothing in terms of keeping the two puppies under control.

WHY DUDE?! Just why? You're going to uni, who are you looking to impress?? I go to uni looking like a bag of smashed assholes (or some people argue that I look like that all the time, but that's just their opinion). Now, people can choose to express themselves in any way they want, but there is a fine line between an outfit that depicts individuality and one that screams "Get into my pants now cause I'm desperate as fuck!"

Is there a tutor you are looking to impress? Or even worse, a lecturer? In which case, I would like to know what faculty at which university you are enrolled in, cause I hear a lot about these steamy teacher-student relationships (ignore the extreme political incorrectness displayed here) but can I just say, there is no possibility of that shit ever happening in the classes I'm enrolled in *shudders at the thought of old ugly lecturers*  Are university toilet cubicles your calling? And I mean, I get the whole risqué excitement of it all, but I bet you payed top dollar for that tight leather skirt, you don't want to get restroom grime smeared all over it! (That's right, picture that mental image!!) Maybe there's a guy/s you want to get with, but I mean, can't that shit wait for parties or the weekends?

Isn't it uncomfortable, oh darling asian-fan girl, to be wearing those 8-inch leopard-print heels, with that neon pink scarf wrapped tightly around your neck falling over your see-through zebra-print chiffon singlet? (I wish I was joking). Don't even get me started on those Hello Kitty denim short-shorts. Wowwee....

The concept of heels at uni really gives me shivers. You're walking from class to class all day on this massive campus, and you're belting out those shoes! Bitch, I know you're in pain, bite your pride and buy a pair of flats!!

And girls aren't the only perpetrators here, men are just as bad! Okay gym boy, I know you've been working out, but what have you done with your shirt sleeves?? Did they magically disappear off the face of this earth? It's like 12 degrees bitch, I don't think its appropriate to wear a singlet today! Will it kill you to buy a t-shirt that is at least one size larger then the one you are currently wearing?? Ok cool, you've been working out on your pecs, I don't need to see your nipples tearing against the very fibres of that poor XXXXXS sized tshirt.

Oh oh, and the blonde surfer boys! It's lovely that you have invested in Calvin Klein or Bonds underwear, it really is, but is it necessary for your jeans to droop so low that anytime that you even slightly bend over, your undies seem to find themselves right up in my face!

Don't get me started on tshirts with pictures of bloody half naked chicks on them. Ok cool dude, you're a stud, but there is no need to wear that public declaration to a 9am history class!

I think what fascinates me the most is how do these people find the time in the morning to do all of this shit?!?! I literally wake up, change my pjs (this is an optional step) and run to the train station before I'm late for a tutorial for the third week in a row!

And it is here that I leave you with this lovely song from Marina and the Diamonds! (Oh so very fitting for you bunch of sleazy whore bags!)

Au Revoir my chickadees!!

Overly-sensitive people and their name issues -.-

Howdy y'all!!! (Have I convinced you that I'm from Texas yet!?!)

First and foremost, I would just like to say that today I watched the second episode of Grimm season two, and OH MY GOD I orgasmed and died! If you guys aren't copping any of that shit, you better get cracking 'cause I think it is fair to say that is easily one of my favourite shows on at the moment (and David Giuntoli isn't that hard on the eyes either (; (; )

Alright, now onto more pressing issues regarding people and their personal issues. As you guys know I have only recently started my second semester of uni, and our tutors are still making us students introduce ourselves at the beginning of each tutorial as if we were a bunch of Kindergarten kids. "Hi, my name is Josh, and these holidays I went on a trip to my kitchen." Well, I had to say that I travelled somewhere! One chick went on a two week shopping spree in New York, and some guy went to Switzerland to visit family... SWITZERLAND!!!! What the fudge!! I hate them all! And some girl was like "I didn't do much, I just spent a week in LA." ... oh god, really? That's so unfortunate!! Let me get you a fucking kleenex!!

Anywhoodles doodles, so when the tutor calls out our names, he asks us if we have a preferred name by which to go by.

"Hi, my name is Daniel, but you can just call me Dan."

"Hi, my name is Alexandra, but I prefer Alex!"

"Hi, my name is Xing Tong Gan Lu, but please call me Kate."

Anyway, when it comes to myself, the tutors always seem to ask "Do you prefer Joshua or Josh" to which I always respond "Oh I really don't mind! Whatever is cool!" At which point everyone seems to turn around and give me an epic dirty and the tutor reluctantly and confusedly says "... Okay then..."

WHAT IS IT WITH PEOPLE AND THEIR NAMES?!?! Why is it such a sensitive topic of discussion for the majority of people I seem to meet at uni?!?! I honestly couldn't care less what people call me. I have friends who prefer to call me by other names 'cause I remind them of a friend or a tv actor. My mother calls me Jahesh (the Arabic word for donkey) for christ sake! But as of recent, I have come to realise that people's sense of dignity and self-being anchors itself quite heavily in what people call them.

Now this is something that I cannot relate to, and I believe that I have come to offend quite a few people with my politically-incorrect name-calling ways. I have a friend called Ada (pronounced Aye-dah) but I unconsciously pronounce it "Add-ah" or, in one particular case, "Udder". I have met a Kady (like the Mean Girls Kady!) and I pronounce it like it is spelt, as opposed to how its suppose to be pronounced, "Katy". Cause, you see, with my friends, I call 'em whatever the hell I want to call 'em! "Natasha" translates to "Tashy" or "Slut-faced hoe bag" (not that far from the original pronunciation) and "Chloe" becomes "Chlo" or "Cow".

I think some people just take themselves way too seriously to be honest. And don't get me wrong, if I've only just met you, I won't substitute your name for a swear word indefinitely, but don't lose the plot if I create a nick name for you!

I mean, I've already planned out the names of my children! They're gonna be Daenerys, Beatrice, Heidi, Cricket and Todd (aren't they just the hottest names?!?!) and I'm already expecting myself to call them a shitload of other nick-names!

It's even more scary when people get aggressive about certain nicknames you call them. "Josh, if you call me Mandy Pandy one more time, I'm gonna rip your balls off!" ... Wooooe, chill out sister from another mister! Don't get your knickers in knots if I'm trying to create a connection here!

Okay, you guys probably think I'm taking it a bit to far, and yes, I admit I am, but still, some people need to chill out! It's cool when people call you other names, I love it, I think its a sign that we're bonding! Unless you don't want to bond with me cause you don't want to be friends... BE MY FRIEND GODDAMMIT!!!!

Okay, thats enough from me! Talk to y'all soon!

Explaining Idaho!

Howdy you guys!

Okay, so, I've only had my blog now for, what, two days. And, already, I've had almost everybody who has stumbled across my blog asking WHY DID YOU CALL YOUR BLOG DRIVING TO IDAHO?! WHAT IS IDAHO?! YOU HAVEN'T EVEN GOT YOUR LICENCE YET! and so on and so forth. I guess that is my fault, its a pretty abstract title and I owe y'all an explanation :) (so please don't kill me!)

If you guys were dedicated enough to google my title at all, the first thing that would have come up in the google search would have been the youtube video for 'Idaho' by British/ American artist Nerina Pallot. And this song has been something that has meant quite a lot to me over the last few years of my life. It's all about letting go and finding freedom, and sort of captures all that emotion when you suddenly realise that you just don't want to be anyone but yourself, you don't want to pretend to be someone else anymore.

Yes, yes I know, I'm going all teenage angst on you, but please, you love it! And one of the lines in the song is "My hands are on the wheel so I'm driving to Idaho" and Idaho is symbolic of freedom and liberation (totes letting my inner HSC English student out!). And that's really what my blog is about: freedom of expression and being a little teenage girl chucking spaz attacks over the internet. Oh so very FITTING :D There's a bit of incorporated irony in the song as well because Idaho is a state in the US which is extremely Republican, and Republicans aren't necessarily the most liberal kind of people out there. But the natural beauty of the state really counteracts all this negativity.

It's actually a funny story how I stumbled across this song. A few years back I had this extreme obsession with America (I still do, hence why I'm doing American studies at uni) but anyway, I started memorising like all the states of America (cause I obviously lead a very busy life with so many important things to do -.-) and I'd like wikipedia them and try and learn as many facts as I can about each one. Anywhoodles, by the time I started googling the state of Idaho, this particular song would constantly pop up in my google search, and I'm just thinking "Who the fuck is this bitch, constantly staring at me from this youtube video window?" I finally gave into pressure and listened to it... and I instantly fell in love!! I mean, that's how VEVO works, right? They keep putting up these songs by no-name artists who payed them tons of money in the side list of videos whilst your watching your videos and they keep bugging you till you eventually click on them them! Bloody marketing, why do you work so well?!?!

So, yes, that's why my blog is called what its called :) I don't care if you think it's cheesy, my mum thinks its pretty neat (I'm so gangster). And also, it has a nice ring to it! If you say it to yourself over and over enough times, it eventually sinks in :D

IN OTHER NEWS I hate how the only day of uni I have off is the day I have work -.- I'm at uni this semester four days a week (so unheard of for an arts student) but it doesn't matter cause I have a 9 hour shift at work on my friday off!! Just epic! And I always say to myself "Josh, you've got to do some form of study before you start work" but pfft, as if that will ever happen. It's sort of like when you set your alarm to 6 am in hope that you wake up early to do some exercise before you start your day, but in reality you just turn off the alarm when it goes off and go back to sleep, only to wake up at 11. Bloody oath.

Anywhoodles, thanks for reading you guys! I feel like I don't even know how to end off blogs! Do I do it like I would end of letters, like 

Yours sincerely

Hot Josh

or do I like just say Bye. 

or do I just leave it hanging all awkwardly? 

Or should be all XOXO Gossip Girl <3

I don't even know. Let's just leave it at toodle doo! 

Hello to the World of Blogging!

Hello to the world of Blogging! 

Oh hi there! Didn't see you there! ;) Well, I have finally made a blog! You guys are most probably thinking, why should we care if you made a blog or not?! And, well, you shouldn't. But, I just think that you should know that I have been thinking of blogging for, what, 6 months now? Ever since I have commenced uni, my friends have been constantly nagging me to get a blog started!

Yes, yes I am a uni student, and I am studying Media and Communications :) At the University of Sydney, might I just add *brushes shoulder* Yes, I am one of those kids ;) I am 18 years old, and I live in Sydney.

I think the reason my slightly over-bearing friends wanted me to do this is because of my big mouth that seems to like making clear every single opinion that might happen to cross my mind. I have also gotten into the habit of posting particularly long and (sometimes teeth clenching) status' on good old Facebook, and I think you guys might be particularly more interested in my rants whilst your on here as opposed to on Facebook where your eagerly at the task of stalking your friends and hot people you were introduced to on that particular day by another friend (or is that just me... ULTRA STALKER!!). SO YES, basically, I want to vent to you guys :D

I'm also of Lebanese decent, for those of you who are not aware of the existence of a country named Lebanon, just think "Wogs on crack" and you're good to go! And living in quite an 'ethnic' house (don't you dare judge how I am so not politically correct!) is quite the task! So I'll be ranting to y'all about that.

I am also, like, the biggest tv show junky around. That shit's like crack to me! At the moment, I am obsessing over Game of Thrones. And please, shush, I know that it's been out for two years now and I'm so delayed and bla bla bla, but listen, I watched two whole season in like a week just recently, and I am obsessed! I'm also currently watching Grimm (like o to the m to the g, first episode of the second season came out yesterday and I like almost died! so amazing!) as well as Pretty Little Liars, and I am currently awaiting the return of The Vampire Diaries (I have come to believe it illegal to live in Mystic Falls and not be hot. How is everyone so hot?!?! Discriminative casting executive... WHICH I LOVE!!!). So, as I said, TV junky.

Well, tis a little about me. Spank you for reading! All I can say is, get ready for a whole lot of crap coming right your way!
