Perceptions & Incomprehensions
Permalink Closed


I have always wondered why is it that when a woman loves beer (or any kind of drink with alcohol) is labeled a whore, be it that she buys her own drinks and drinks clean (no monkey business involved) but society will look at her as one. You add salt to the wound if you are even a smoker too.


 


I love my MGD and I promise you when I walk into a pub I do it with a fat purse and that’s all I am gonna do, sit on that stool and talk to the bar man and I drink responsibly.  I have two sistas I know here who are heavy drinkers, when I say heavy these two sistas mean business. One day I walked up to one and asked her the above and what she feels about it, she said to me “I have lived with that but the truth lives within me and those close to me and for the rest I don’t care”, and I thought to myself maybe I should go with the same attitude but I promise you it’s not easy to grow this kinda thick skin, I just wish all this would go away one day and people start respecting women who love their alcohol. 


 


It’s the same with guys who drink heavily not all are womanisers, there are sober guys who I know and are womanisers that you would think playing around is going out of fashion.  I know of guys who just love their alcohol and it ends there and there are a lot of them

as long as you drinkin responsibly and not doin wot youll regret later in the morn/o when youre sober,then its cool!

Ankhaze sweetheart,


Believe you me, no mata wat u do, not everyone is gonna be pleased with u so da best u can do is please urself first. As u pointed out, u know 2 sistas who drink like nobody's business and dey dont give a hoot about wat is said so long as dem demselves know da truth. Take it from dem babes and live ur life to da fullest. U only live once. Y care wat others think who dont mata in ur life anyway? Sum pple were born bita so hey why shud u allow dem to pull u down???? Eehh?!!!!

Hey! Thanx Dolls!


 


I have never felt this much better when it comes to this issue!


 


At least now I will be more confident that there are lots outa there!


 


I am telling you this thing surrounding girl drinkers & smokers can be disturbing hee.  Thanx for storing more confidence in me – especially here in Jozi people never seem to mind their own business.  I am slowly getting to hook myself in one of circles of the sistas I mentioned earlier – they are untouchable when it comes to their drink and takes there stance firmly!


 


To all the girlfriends out there who feels like I used to I say – we live once and make the best out of life in your own ways!!!!
