Tampons, and Other Unnecessary Products

I try not to think about all of the needless products that humans have produced over the last hundred years or so, because it makes me angry. Especially women. I mean, wake up America! We are killing our planet. Sheesh. There's just no respect anymore. So I have compiled a list of five products that woman could do without in today's world. Enjoy!

1.) Deodorant

Oh God. It pains me to think that every morning people are mindlessly swiping this harmful product over their armpits. Do they realize how many chemicals are in this stick of white powder? And don't even get me started on antiperspirant! That being said, I do realize that guys are much more smelly, and obviously in much more need of this product than womenfolk. So I guess exceptions can be made. But us females? We always smell like flowers! No wonder it's so costly for women's deodorant vs. men's. We simply don't need it!

2.) Razors

It's no surprise that women's razors cost more than men's. And why shouldn't they? Women are born pretty much hairless. It's guys that need to worry about their body hair. Even though the lumberjack look is in, and guys pretty much do have an option in whether or not they want to shave and... hm, where was I going with this? Oh right! Women only have to shave their armpits and their legs if they want to be socially accepted. Guys on the other hand, are required to shave their.... oh. Actually, I'm not sure if they're required to shave anywhere. Still. Women's razors cost more than men's because they simply don't need to purchase one.


3.) Haircuts

Now, this one really does make sense! I'll definitely be able to convince you here. Who needs haircuts? Not women! Long hair is in, my friend. Men are the only ones who should go to the hair salon, if we really think about it. You'll thank me later! For obvious reasons, women pay more for haircuts than men. After all, men have short easy hair to deal with. Women always have long, flowing hair, that is just a mess to try to cut. Oh, what's that? Even girls with pixie cuts often pay more than men? Well. I uh. Just go to the next one!

4.) Cars

Public transportation is your friend. Even if you live in Kansas. I'm sure you'll be able to find a bus station near you. And it saves you pain and heartache. What woman would want to deal with a car salesman? After all, any car salesman worth his salt will charge a woman more for a car than a man. We just don't know cars well enough to tell the difference, and will unknowingly pay the jacked up prices. It's honestly a very smart technique. Good job car salesman. I applaud you.

5.) Tampons

Well, this one is obviously a no brainer. Guys don't even use tampons, or pads, or other feminine products. And neither should we! The price could be considered ridiculous, if we needed such items. But I'm here with groundbreaking news. We don't! Go put a leaf in your underpants. That's how they did it in the olden times, and things worked out so perfectly then.

I hoped I've opened someone's eyes today. Please, think extra carefully about what you truly need!

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.

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.
