Fairy tales full of shit!

Ever thought of what the writing behind fairy tails really is?
Snow White - snow-white-and-the-seven-dwarfs PhotoWhat are the symbolisms and meanings behind every story? 
If you look closely or rather think of the stories they don't
seem to be far from the teachings you  get as you grow up in the traditional sense.

Snow white for example had the bad step mother, nightmare for every child losing their mother but also the negative thinking of a woman getting married to a widower with children.
Snow white for example preferred to stay with 7 guys that couldn't satisfy her needs than be alone. Doesn't that ring a bell to insecure people? I shall think so! And the slut instead of appreciating all the things the dwarfs did for her and how they protected her what does she do?
lives them and runs of as soon as the good looking prince on the horse shakes his little thing
in front of her. Typical human behaviour. 

Now the mirror...well this is my favourite symbolism in this tale. The mirror is always the
reflection we have of our selves. It wasn't some magic little gadget it was the way the bad 
step mum saw herself and as soon snow white became 18, therefore a full grown woman,
the queen felt threatened by her so started to see herself in the mirror differently as her perception 
of herself changed.

As many fairy tale princesses, snow white had father issues. Is it a coincidence that snow white,
Cinderella and others had lost their fathers and became unprotected in the wicked world?
Isn't this an idea promoting to young girls when reading them this story that if you lose your male 
Cinderella Wallpaper - cinderella Wallpaperguardian you cannot survive alone and need another male to look after you in order to survive?
Isn't that the reason that they all end up with a husband at the end? And what a coincidence he is rich. famous, popular and good looking! Right! Nice values to teach children that it is anything but the personality that counts!
Of course we never get to hear what happens after the happily ever after and the cheating of the prince with the staff of the castle! And lets not mention how Cinderella offers an answer as to how shoes can change your life - never mind that her shoe was from glass therefore fragile......

I have been also been thinking of red ridding hood. Now I think that that poor wolf has been treated rather unfairly both in this tale and the one with the three little pigs and this is why:

Red riding hood was a girl first of all wearing red. Now, I don;t mean to sound rude but common
Little red riding hood Picture  (2d, illustration, red riding hood, cartoon)if you are wearing red to go out you really do not intend to go about unnoticed.  
So she's told by mum not to go through the forest. Obviously red riding hood isn't that young otherwise she would not be allowed to go out alone. So what does the little tart do? Go through the fucking forest
so my guess is that she was asking for it! Not to mention how the poor wolf ended up getting the blame. Oh yeah it was the animals fault for wanting to eat when hungry how stupid. This is very similar to capturing wild animals for shows or zoos and when they snap and eat someone is always somehow their fault for having instincts!
Now, as far as the three pigs go common people can't keep their hands of bacon and meat in general and stuff their faces with burgers but the wolf is bad for wanting to eat the pigs? OK whatever.....  

Of course there is always the good teachings of fairy tales such as the frog that turned into a prince and beauty and the beast which pass a positive meaning but still nobody tells you what happens when the prince you meet turns into a frog which actually is what usually happens after a while.

So fairy tales to me are a sort of 'brainwashing' making girls believe they need a man to look after them, especially a specific type. The one that comes on a horse that is! After all is it by chance that fairy tales have been written by  men? Something like the bible and the position it places women ;) 
Just think about it.....

The opposite sex for a day...

Have you ever thought what it would be like if you woke up one day and
were the opposite sex for a day? I have many male guy friends which always say 'Oh if I were a woman I would be a real slut' would they though if they were actually a woman?

As they themselves say it is off putting to see women so forward and sluty therefore wouldn't that be a barrier to hooking up with guys?

Nowadays it is hard for women anyway as guys don't pay that much attention to girls like they used to.

So what would it be like?
Let's see..... Guys you would have to spend that time  in the bathroom getting ready for work: It is not so quick it is not that easy and yes it is necessary!

Guys you would then have to walk on heels! Ha ha good luck with that - try to stand straight without falling off never mind walking! 
Then you would have to drive to work wearing them. Good luck with that too. 
Not to mention as a lady you would have to watch the sounds that come out of you in the bathroom
and before you say I won't care you will cause you will then as you will be a lady. Along with being a woman goes other things like watching what you eat not just because of the figure but also cause those clothes ladies wear don't fit you the moment you gain half a kg!

Oh then there's this others issue of guys checking you out from top to bottom where you might have made the effort of being perfect looking and they will find the one thing that might be out of your control to fix like your neck being a little too long or your your nose not so straight you know things like that!

These are probably FEW of the things you ll face of being one day a woman.....

So let's go to you ladies.....
I think the worst would be to pee standing up I think that is a real challenge even though I think you would still not miss half as much as guys do even though they have done that for so long! 

Now I understand ladies usually are considered as harsh when coming to guys appearance etc.... Still I think men are equally critical of appearances as women so probably the same level of criticism would occur so nothing different there only for different things mostly related to hygiene. 

Now as far as women go, you ladies as a guy for one day, would probably have to learn that smiling and flirting does not get you free stuff, out of a parking ticket, favours etc. Admittedly it is much harder for men to get such good service in places. 
Having said that, it is quite liberal being a guy in the following sense: house cleanliness. Of course we are not talking about filthy places but women are expected to have cleaner houses than men. A man's life does not in general demand perfection in the same level as a woman's. 

They are expected to be more carefree so ladies that is a positive- you get a day without worrying of those 'silly' things men speak of! Silly my ass......

There is of course negatives to being a man usually having to do with the bedroom. I know there are guys that don't care of satisfying their ladies but being a lady whose a guy for a day of course you would know how distressful that is a woman! So lets  give those guys who are gentlemen in bed our full congrats as we realise how much work they have to put in and stamina - so good on you guys who care! Let's not mention the fact that there are things out of their control like ....size. We have to acknowledge how hard they work to keep a woman without being so....how shall we put it....generous down there. Something you can't do anything about so we have to give them credit for the hard work they do there. So imagine ladies if you were a man for a day and not so grande down there maybe you could get some sympathy for that ex boyfriend who was almost perfect but you left him anyway's because of that. So ladies being a guy isn't that is easy they too do have issues is just that they usually concern their size than anything else.

So still think it is easier being the opposite sex......?

Vikings from History channel

Vikings, the new series from the History channel completing
 it's first series today is a close depiction of the way the Vikings lived. The history channel has
made such a great job in putting historical facts into a series creating something different to its usual documentary style programmes.

With this series you get the action, the attractive people and the knowledge of what it was like to be a Viking, how they first attacked England but also their daily habits from eating to hunting even to marrying. 

I must admit that in my mind the Vikings were a more vicious group and even though the series shows the ease in which they killed it also shoes the softer side in the way they were with their family both wives and children.
One of the interesting facts you get to learn from this series is the role of the women which was quite active as they even went to war but also various other facts like the meaning ravens had, the sacrifices they made to their Gods etc. Of course lets not forget the attractive the strong attractive men taking part like the star of the series Travis Fimmel an Australian model or his co-star Kathryn Winnick. 

So this is a highly recommended series as it offerd both action, keeps you interested plus it is an accurate account of Viking life instead of a Hollywood science fiction which usually butchers film of series based on historical events, people etc.  

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Free will

Free will has been an issue which I have been thinking about  a lot as a result of ''religious'' individuals.
But if you think about it, free will is about choice and respect for those choices. It goes beyond what God gave people as a freedom of choice - we see everyday people being made fun of or even questioned about their choice I'm sure it has happened to you.

So lets start off with the first issue I have of people not respecting free will. I have often met people who claim to be religious and followers of God and Christ and claim to be deeply involved in practising their faith - usually referring to Christianity. So one of the things I never got was how these people support they are such humble follower of God but do not usually realise they have become followers of the church and the clergy and instead of reading the bible themselves they only gulp down what priests shove down their throats usually what will not be against their interests and not make people question why they wear so much gold and churches are decorated so expensively instead of teaching to simply pray and live humble and try to not harm.
So in all this that the followers listen to do not realise that there are so many contradictions in the teachings of the church like : God said love thy neighbour right? I don't know of him to have said live thy neighbour unless he is homosexual, different race, belonging to a different religion etc. Love thy neighbour full-stop is the phrase. So why does the church say it is a sin to be with someone of the same sex? Especially after soooo many scandals have broken out about the Vatican and certain Catholic priests which managed to get out easily from paying the price.

So in all this as I was saying these religious people gulp down anything these righteous men tell them instead of reading the bible themselves or even better historical books based on facts instead of believing a huge fire came down from the sky and fell on earth, which by the way was a very rare comet not something sent from God! So these people give others lectures about their choices like it is a seen to have an abortion, even though the baby is known to be born with serious problems or it is a seen not to baptise your child or to have a child outside marriage - and what the fuck about free will? was that not given to people by God? But of
course this is not in favour of priests so they do not stress it so obviously in their teachings or Sunday schools do they? This is why someone soooo religious when asked by atheists of God is so powerful why doesn't he stop war or hunger the 'religious' brothers don't know how to answer and simply reply because it isn't God doing that it is people - so religious that they do not know God has given free will and therefore cannot act against it? He cannot stop someone from doing something they chose to cause He has given them free will.

I would imagine that if you are so faithful in anything weather that is religion, football teams or music groups you will at least have basic knowledge on it and be able t answer simple questions on it!!!! You would think!
They have received so much brainwashing from the church that they never question anything they hear and do not realise that sin isn't  only about having a list of things you tick on doing or not doing things so to get on God's good side but GOD SEE'S EVERYTHING you ass holes he can see how you feel and think at least that is what believers think so don't act like 'oh these are do's and these are dont's'   he see's soles my dears HELLOOOOOOOO. You might think these people would have a general idea on the matter at least more understating than others but to me they seem just freakin' gullible instead of having a thirst to learn but also to be pure because it is the right thing to do instead of what will get them points for heaven!

Going further I must say we see see that free will is daily being criticised. Starting with parents when you get to adolescence ahhahahahhaha it seems like yesterday that I was in school and I remember clearly not being accepted by my parents for my choices. I remember once I had a torn pair of jeans, which by the way they are now in fashion so clearly they seem acceptable by parents, and one day I came home from school and guess what had happened to my favourite torn pair of jeans? It was thrown out! About 15 years have past and I still cannot forget it. I also remember wanting a black leather jacket with nails around the same time and my mother's response was that those wearing such clothes are people with emotional problems hahahha.
Don't want to go too much into parents and their children cause it is a different issue but if this isn't a violent way to take away someone's free will then what is?

This is something happening everyday. Friends do it when they don't accept our partners right? Of course not talking about people who we know cheat ect. People watching you because your unique style does not suit their tight asses and look at you up and down? Isn't that a form of disrespect for your free will and not only?

Well you know what I do in such cases? I look back hahah you know the thing you do with dogs when they look at you and you look back into their eyes until they turn their eyes elsewhere and you know then you have broken them down? Same thing with people - plus it gets quite fun after a bit cause it really freaks them out!

If animals could talk.......

This is Cookie - my beloved companion, a 6 year old cocker spaniel.
I'm sure for those of you who have pets like myself you have a great feeling of protecting animals, trying to help strays find a home even become a vegan or vegetarian.

I have often tried to imagine what it would be like if my pet could talk or at least if I could tell what her barking meant :).

Of course we can tell if the barking is caused by excitement or fear etc but that is as far as our knowledge goes. I have often stared into my dog's eyes which I'm sure you would have too and I get that awww from looking at those eyes.

Admittedly though we as humans have become very hurtful. There are countries which have a great problem with stray animals especially dogs. The things I have seen happening to animals are indescribable and I will not include pictures or talk much of the crimes but I will say this: hurting a living being for any other reason than survival is something only humans do. Nowhere else in nature is there a more vicious being than man. Even amongst the most dangerous of species you will not find such terrible torturing crimes. Even though such people who do such things like torture or kill animals should not be walking around free, as they are disturbed, mentally ill people undoubtedly, I still wonder: what if animals could talk?

Would this prevent people from hurting them as they would seem cleverer than they are therefore more superior to what they are now and closer to a humans logic level? Would talking animals prevent people from hurting them if they could say 'please don't do that it is painful'? Would people be prevented from abandoning their dogs in the street if their pet could say: 'please don't leave me, without you I will not be able to survive and I will die' ?

We as humans have domesticated animals depriving them of their instincts, their ability to live free in nature and yet we see cases of pets constantly living in a garden or quite frequently being abandoned without having any survival skills. This is a whole ethical talk which I'm not going to get into as it is pretty obvious what ethical issues arise. I will say this though: even though man managed to separate himself from animals as it is superior in logic he has failed to evolve his emotional IQ something animals have managed to do and this is why they are loyal. This is the reason humans are not superior to animals but are incapable of understanding what animals are trying to tell us by their body language or barking etc. It is us that are failing to 'read' them and yet we see them as inferior?

Isn't it surprising how every day we hear a great story about a dog or we find out more things we didn't know about them and understand them better? It is not animals that are doing anything new it is us being able to understand them. So how does this make us, humans superior?

I'm sure that all pet owners found themselves being more sensitive about animals after getting one and I'm sure they were surprised at how clever they are and the things they understand.

I know I did!
