The Un-Beautiful Girls

Borrowed from kellygyrl - I loved it so much, I had to borrow it. Hopefully you'll enjoy it, too. :)


We are the "Un-Beautiful Girls"

We are the girls you may not give a second glance. We know you may look once, then pass us over, for we are too tall, too short, too plain, too fat, too thin, too old, too young, too blemished, too freckled, or just "too anything". We are the girls whose bodies don't stop traffic, whose wardrobes are not designer, and whose faces will never launch a fleet of ships.

We are the girls whose eyes crinkle when we smile, and whose faces line when we laugh, for we've done so much of both through our lives that our faces have been changed forever. We proudly bear the scars and stretch marks we have gained over the years as badges of honor, and evidence of a life fully lived. We polish our skin, brighten our smiles, and nourish our hair with loving attention, because we know our own worth. We glow from within when we dance, because we love the way our bodies feel when they move with the rhythm. We are the girls who know what beauty truly is, and we revel in our own.

We are the girls who have always had to try just a little harder, and take unending joy in the rewards. We know the immeasurable value of trust, of honesty, of devotion, of loyalty, of tenderness, and of nurturing. We love with everything we have. We give our hearts, our bodies, and our souls, without reservation, to the ones who have taken the time to know who we are, for when they know us, they will be unable to resist us. We are the girls who are the most richly rewarded by an honest smile, a loving touch, and a simple, heartfelt "Thank you". And we will give them all in return, without end.

We are the girls who can truly please your eyes and hearts, delight all your senses, refresh your tired spirits, and strengthen your souls. We complete you.

We are the "Un-Beautiful Girls." And only the luckiest few will know our love.

Peak

I know that researchers say that men hit their sexual peak in their late teens (and apparently never leave it), and for women, it's right about when they reach 30.

How do you even know if you've hit your peak? Do you just wake up one morning having been smacked upside the head by your raging libido? Or is it more subtle - not that I'd completely understand subtlety.


I just wonder because for some reason, even though I get spanked pretty well by depression, the past few weeks, I've been running around (dare I say it?) horny as all get-out. My creative drive is shot to shit, but my sex drive is definitely there.


And if you want really wierd ... saying that "I'm horny" is probably the hardest thing for me to come out and say. Probably because of the whole "Nice Girls Don't" stigma that was hammered in to my pretty little head so perfectly. Yes, me (for those that know about it), the Resident Pervert that has no qualms about writing erotica that spans straight, slash, bi, threeways, BDSM, anal sex, whatever - doesn't have the heart, guts or nerve to say that she's a horny devil.

Maybe in the way that some people talk about hiding their hearts while others give theirs freely, not openly admitting to wanting sex is my way of hiding my heart. If my libido isn't on display, then I can't become vulnerable to people, because when that happens, they take advantage and run with it. And I've had that happen too often to want to re-live it anytime soon.

Life - The Cliffs Notes Version

If you've just added me (or I've added you), I thought I should give you the Cliffs Notes version of what's been happening, so you don't have to go sifting through all the entries. ;)

Sure, the User Info page gives you the basics ... but if you want more, here it is. And even if you don't want more - that's alright, too.

Anyways ... a little bit about me. I'm a geek - no two ways around it. I revel in my geek status, a happy (fueled by Effexor) bi girl about town. This journal sometimes has silly and superficial things - but usually, I write about more serious things. Okay, so that's occasionally bitching about work or life, just like anyone else's lj, I'm sure.

Sometimes I discuss more "sensitive" topics - such as my life experiences growing up, or sex - general discussion or personal experience. If it gets lengthy or possibly explicit, I do forewarn people and the Cut Text becomes a good friend.

While I am what (and who) I am, I don't make any attempts at forcing my ideas, beliefs or opinions onto anyone. At the same time, I will not apologize for the ideas, beliefs or opinions that I hold. Nor will I put down anyone else's personal ideas, beliefs or opinions. They are what make us all unique - and I can respect you for your differences. I just hope that you can do the same.

Whether you've been here since the beginning - or since tonight - thank you for joining me on the rocky road I call my life. Hopefully you'll find something you like to read - and if you do, let me know. Even if you find something you don't like to read - you can tell me that, too. I can take it.

Happy Reading!
