Security for your home and not your life?

Most of the women you all have described are not ladies. Being a woman and being a lady are two different things. Not every woman is a lady…they should just change their ways and aspire to be.
Just saying ‘classy’ is truly a sign that one is not!
No one needs to be told what a woman, a lady. Today’s women are for the most-part sluts. They dress slutty, they walk slutty, the act slutty. Put your legs together, and show people what a real lady is.
Rule 71? Come on, nature is true beauty, make-up just ruins it.
Most of these are more like rules for being a person. All of these rules seem to insist conforming to a certain standard of behavior if you want to be seen as “a lady”. Especially the last one. Be classy? So if I do something that is not considered classy am I not a “lady” anymore?
No. How about one rule for being a lady: Be yourself. Do whatever you want. Don’t buy into other people’s idea of what a lady should be. If you feel like a lady, no matter what you’re doing, you are a lady.
So if a woman is standing gap legged in a Walmart parking lot urinating, she is a lady? If she is so drunk she is slurring and grinding with every guy or cursing up a storm? How about if she is chewing tobacco whilst spitting the juice into a coke bottle? We all know that there are certain behaviors that constitute being a lady and there are some that miss the mark. You cannot stop being female because of these but you cannot be considered a lady.
I know plenty of women who consider themselves to be “ladylike” who spit, swear, get drunk and dance with as many men as they want. They are still ladies.
They are not ladies. Having female genitalia does not make one a lady; not in the definition that is being expressed here. That definition is “a woman who is refined, polite, and well-spoken: She may be poor and have little education, but she’s a real lady.” The ones you described are girls having fun.
I agree with MM. Be classy is the number one rule.
I forget who told me this, but I always remember this phrase: Every lady is a woman, but not every woman is a lady.
Even if they consider themselves a lady, it doesn’t mean that they are. I know plenty of people who think they’re “ladylike” when they really show none of the characteristics of a lady. I’m not saying that it makes them a bad person, but it just doesn’t make them a lady. T’is only my opinion of course ^.^
I am so madly in love with my wife because she cares about everyone the same way she cares about me,she’s like Carla from Scrubs only more caring and beautiful ,all these advices you give are effed up and dumb people read this and never find love…arrogant blindness.
The quote about someone not deserving you at your best if they can’t handle you at your worst is not supposed to be an excuse for bad behavior but about how they should love and support you no matter what is happening in your life. They should know that a relationship is work and not all butterflies and rainbows. There will be ups and downs, So if they give up at the slightest hiccup then they don’t want to support you when things get hard. Why should you keep them around only in the good. Being together is an all or nothing endeavor.
No. 1
Realize that when men read this shit all they can think about is some ridiculous woman that expects the entire world and gives nothing in return… Just treat a man like he deserves and you will be surprised at the lengths that he goes to make you happy. That is all a real man ever wants. To make a woman happy while she is with him.
These aren’t the rules of how to treat a man. This is a list of rules of how to treat yourself, others and situations in everyday life.
I disagree with the “if they can’t handle you at your worst, then they don’t deserve you at your best.” It’s just a cop-out and an excuse for bad behavior. If you treat someone like crap half the time and then like a prince/princess the other half, that is just jerking them around.
It’s a quote from Marilyn Monroe if you didn’t know that. “I’m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best.”
I agree with it to a degree, because if a man is going to get all pissed off every time you make a mistake, or every time you have a bad/ off day, then why do they get your best? But I agree that it shouldn’t be an excuse to be an ass hole to men and expect them to be ok with it..
I like numbers 33 & 77!!
Make sure you keep those in mind for yourself, too!
HUGGLES… lubs you.
I need to write some of those down! Loved them!
Oh I love these sooo much!
