Girls

Some drab myspace stalking has resulted in the discovery of certain things:

1. Most girls use this as a giant slutfest. [Not that there is anything wrong with that. Hurrah sexual freedom.] But honestly, how many thongtastic profile photos are really necessary? And if you do post such a display, please do not ask to be my friend merely to clog the internet with "bulletins" about free ringtones, concert tickets, or subway sandwiches. I am not interested.

2. Teenage girls' fantasies have not changed. Found this comment on a teen idol site:

I just wanted to let you know...Your music gives me a reason to wake up everday. <3>

Thank you for giving me these amazing privileges to be content/happy every day. I will most definitely remember you ten years from now and remember that you and your music kept me from nervous breakdowns when I was close to them, and that you and your music give me reason to have that extra spring in my step.Thank you.

Ummm... right. Ashleigh, honey, you are rapidly approaching a rather pathetic territory of teen idolatry that includes all of the TRL audience. Don't be that girl, Ashleigh. Pop music is not the answer to the problems you encounter between "school and drama." I should know: I had a New Kids on the Block trapper keeper. Age: 7. First concert. Hell, first cd. Mmmhmmm, you know it.
