Lazy Saturday...Afternoon

I, like a great number of teenagers sleep in on Saturday.  Hence why I didn't get up till around 11.  I got 13 hours of sleep.  You have the only two numbers that you need to find out how late I stayed up before I finally crashed on the floor with two blankies before my mom got me back up to actually get me in a comfortable bed.
Do you remember how I said about that funeral?  Well, my mom made me go.  I hate funerals...that's all there is to it.  They're depressing, and sad, and a lot of people cry, and honestly I don't even want to go to my own funeral when I die!  And, funerals, no matter whos funeral it is, you always feel bad because you didn't know the person who died better, even if you were really close to them.  And you think about all the bad mean things you'd ever done to them.  Well, if you're like me anyway.  And no, I hadn't been mean to her.
13 is my lucky number.  I know that that sounds crazy, because 13 is the most unlucky number ever, but it's seriously my lucky number.  It's always there and showing up.
One out of three times when I look at my Facebook chat 13 people are on.  It's 13 days till my friend's 18th birthday, and she just now told me about it.  When I was 13 that was the teen year when I cried and was hurt the least...although it's also when I started the cycle of pain and stuff...I just like the number 13.  Plus, I'm obstinate, and whenever someone says something can't be done, or that something's unlucky or something like that, I try to prove them wrong.  Might come with the red hair.
You know how I view feminists?  I don't like it.  I don't like the feminist movement.  There are some things that I agree with them on, such as, yes, men and women are equal...but...they're equal in different ways.  Like, a fish and a cat are equal, but a cat can't breath underwater, and a fish can't climb a tree.  Yet no one, or at least very few people would argue that they're not equal.
I think men and women are equal, but I don't think that they should be treated equal.  If they're treated equal, either all men and women will be expected to stay home, take care of kids, be super sensitive and over analyze everything, be natural motherers, and extremely emotional.  OR, what is more common, all women and men will be expected to be tough, go out and get a job, get into fights, hide emotions, ship kids off to people they pay to stick their own views into, and just be tough like that.
Do you see the problem yet?
Plus, doesn't everyone like going first in line to get food?  Well, if you're treated equal, and you're a girl, well...sorry, this is an equal world, we just get our food as we get food, no ladies first here.
Women are getting so tough and stuff that it's scary.  I for one am not feminist...Sometimes I get tired of guys, but not in the way that I'm better than them, or equal to them.
There's no way I could pick up a 100lb person, yet I have no doubt that one of my classmates who is a guy, and weighs about the same as me, could pick up a 100lb person.
BUT, there's also no way he could carry a baby for 9 months.
There are a lot more differences between men and women, and things that women can do that men can't, and things that men can do that women can't, but they fled my mind.
No, I'm not saying that women shouldn't be allowed to get jobs, or vote, but women shouldn't be pressured to do so.  Even in the church women are pressured to get jobs!
With the jobs thing...I would feel awkward to have a male doctor.  Especially if I was pregnant.  I would rather have a female doctor, cause that's just the way I am.
And I like being able to go first at Youth Group to get food, and I like being treated slightly different from guys.  I don't like being told that I'm worth less because I'm a girl, or that I have to go make people sandwiches, and that my place is the kitchen...I have classmates who say that.
I think that there should be equal opportunity, but what's the point in hating guys?  There are feminists who hate men...what's up with that?  You wouldn't be here if there wasn't a man...And if you have a little boy, what do you think he's gonna grow up to be?
So anyway...yeah...that's my point of the day.
