A Lesson in Love.

Love or Money.
I told someone I didn't believe in love yesterday and they didn't believe me.
No, my heart hasn't really been broken and no I am not totally jaded
and no I don't hate men.

I believe in biology, remember?
I also believe in money.
But most importantly I believe in power.
When I say power I really mean the equality of it.

Any effective relationship needs a sort of balance.
Otherwise someone is going to be a sad little cupcake.
And it won't be me because I automatically have the upper hand because
I am psycho and think about these things.

See, my counterparts (being fellow females) have got it all wrong.
They want to be little country club wives who sit by the pool and yell
at their children occasionally while their husband plays golf and
flirts with the fifteen year old club house hostess.
When you give in to that, then you relinquish any power you may have
had over this man and you make it that much easier for him to trade
you in for that hostess once she becomes legal.

I don't want to just sit at the country club, I'd like to own it. But
then my husband would need to own something too, like a mall,
otherwise it would be the same situation in reverse.

So, the simple version is a relationship needs equity.
And that has everything to do with love and money.
No one should have more of one or the other.

I wouldn't want to torture you like that.

Power has nothing to do with equality. You have power over somebody; the rich over the poor, the beautiful over the ugly, she who can grant sex and he who wants it. If you both have power, then you are both powerless over each other. Or something like that...

That my dear is the point. Equality in equal shares of zero is still equality.

About Me

I like run-on sentences and also syntax based loosely on the approved constructs of grammar.
