PSA: Not All Ladies Act Ladylike

PSA: Not All Ladies Act Ladylike

SHOCKER! Not all of us women decide we're going to be proper and have sweaters tied around our shoulders all the time. Sure, we can act ladylike, but it can only last for so long. It's hard being a lady with all the expectations and pressures in the world. Sometimes, a girl has to let loose and get grimy.

1. Eating in public can be hard. Sometimes we eat our Chipotle bowl, and it ends up on our oversized T-shirt, but that's OK! We're just saving it for later…

2. Occasionally, second-day makeup is a thing. All you have to do is take a little makeup remover to where it smudged and then you can be on your merry way.

3. Raise your hand if you know the dirtiest rap songs of your friend group.

4. Not shaving our legs — thank you, winter!

5. Yes, we fart and we poop…and we think it's funny.

6. Sometimes ugly cuss words come out of our mouths. Big deal.

7. When we get a wax, sometimes we say horrible words and want to scream out "Kelly Clarkson" like Steve Carrell in "The 40-Year-Old Virgin."

8. The most exciting part of our day isn't putting on all of our makeup and clothes; it's taking them off when we get back home. We do not like pants. Or bras.

9. We do not always eat healthy.

10. We belch. We belch a lot.

11. Yes, sometimes we sit with our legs open. That doesn't mean they're open for you or for your glances.

12. Our sweat glands work, sometimes too much.

13. Outfit rule: If no one saw you wear it the first day, it's good for day two.

14. Girls talk. A lot of the times our talk is cheap humor and filled with a lot of graphic detail.

15. Going commando is not just a guy thing. It's a human thing and it's pure bliss. Plus, sometimes laundry day gets pushed to next weekend.

16. We have double chin contests, and they're hilariously awesome. That's what Snapchat's for, right?

17. We take screenshots of everything and send it to other ladies so we can talk crap. It's tacky, but we all do it.

18. Wedgies. They're horrible. Sometimes we have to do a shimmy-buttshake-slide sort of dance to get it out without notice; other times it's a hands-on experiment. Yikes.

19. Sniffing your armpits. I've done it, you've done it, we've all done it.

20. OK…maybe not like that….

It happens to the best of us! We've all been there, done that! It does not make you less of a lady. It simply means you're human. Sometimes we have to be unappealing to be vulnerable. So forget being the perfect lady and having all the right manners. Where's the fun in that? Live your life and don't feel guilty about being a little disgusting sometimes.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
