Womanhood, Kids, and Angelina Jolie – What Makes a Woman

Mother JolieToday Angelina Jolie discussed the removal of her ovaries and fallopian tubes in an op-ed article in the New York Times. I never liked Angelina Jolie as an actress, but I never disliked her. I never followed her in the news, I never went out of my way to watch one of her movies, and I didn’t have the need to know much about her. I knew a few things about her, like she was Jon Voight’s daughter and Billy Bob Thornton was cheating on his fiancee (who supposedly didn’t find out until Billy Bob and Angelina were married) with her. She was just kind of…there. Eventually I saw more of her in the media not because of her movies, but because of her humanitarian efforts, her growing family, and health issues.

But it was because of these things that I started to feel like she wasn’t just basking in her celebritydom; I realized that she was very human, very big-hearted. Even during her failing marriage to Billy Bob she proceeded to adopt her first child at the age of 26. I can’t imagine celebrities at that age (Daniel Radcliffe or Taylor Swift) caring for a baby. Clearly she had other priorities in life.

Random Moments: Steak And BJ Day

steakandbjSo I woke up on March 14 feeling amazing.  I knew from twitter hashtags and other social media outlets that today was Steak and BJ Day.  Ah yes, the day where I get to lay back and do nothing but let my penis poke towards the ceiling so Venice could admire it.   I look over to Venice laying next to me and grab her wrist so I can guide her hand to my hard penis.  I was smiling at her as she grabbed my manhood and kind of winked a little bit.  She made a happy expression as she touched me but quickly changed her look and asked why I was smiling so much.  I laughed a bit and said, “Well, today is Steak and BJ Day and I’m already doing my part.”

She looked back at me and responded, “What’s that supposed to mean to me?”  She continued to stroke my dick as she waited for my answer.

I took the smile off my face and explained, “It’s steak and bj day.  Today is my valentine.”  I smiled again and reached over to grab her head and guide her down into my lap.

She moved my hand and started negotiating with me, “I’ll tell you what, I’ll stop sucking your dick every day like I normally do, and instead give you a BJ on this so called holiday.   How does that sound?  Otherwise, I want you to take this hard dick in my hand and stick it inside my pussy and fuck me good.”

I guess that kind of put things in perspective.   Instead of getting a BJ, I got up and used my dick the way she wanted it used, and later that night I ate her homemade Chili.

Tattooed Women: The Real and The Fake

tattooed womenMy excitement had been building exponentially as I planned to get a tattoo. Not a cute little heart on my wrist or a narwhal on my ass cheek. But something big, loud, and in-your-face. Ryan has told me many times that tattoos on a woman are hot, especially sleeves or legs. I had a tattoo before I met Ryan, but not in either of those places. So to hear him say that makes me say, “I love tattoos, and I want another one, so why not get it where my man wants it?”

However, Ryan is afraid of one thing: the stigma a tattoo of that size and location would bring upon me. I’m sure this thought has been on everyone’s mind who has ever had their bodies inked. Some things may even come to mind: trashy, dirty, uneducated bimbos. These thoughts have definitely crossed my mind at some point, even more so : I’m a college graduate, I served as a military officer and fought for my country, I kick ass at being the M in MILF, I make homemade meals at least three times a week (what? sometimes we have leftovers or Domino’s) and take care of my husband in every..single..way. It’s far too late to be ashamed of me. And if people choose to judge this book by her cover, then they are missing out on a caring, loyal, and selfless person.

Random Moments – This Is How the Zombie Apocalypse Starts

zombieI said goodbye to Ryan as I was leaving out the door, one foot not quite fully in my high heel. I turned my ankle to maneuver it in and twisted the door knob opening the door connecting the kitchen hallway to the garage. “Love you,” I called out one last time; Ryan responded with the same words. I looked up from the ground and my eyes met those of the neighborhood dog that lived about eight houses up the street. I don’t know its name, but I know this dog. Many times I’ve had to slow my car to an idle as it pranced across the street seemingly oblivious to vehicles zooming by it. At the moment, however, it was standing in the center of our garage between Ryan’s weight bench and an abandoned sugar bear cage.

I grasped the knob cautiously in one hand, unsure of whether or not I should open it further. Its tongue lolled out at the left side, its dark auburn hair matted from the heavy early a.m. mist. I stared at it for a moment longer wondering if I was staring at a real life Cujo or if the innocent dog was in there peering at me with curious eyes. I extended my arm forward, shutting the heavy door. The locking mechanism clicked in place.

My heels clicked on the tile back to the master bedroom. “There’s a dog in the garage,” I said. Ryan wasn’t sure of what to make of it, but I must have had a look of genuine concern. He acted quickly and stood up.

“Is it still there?” he asked.

“I don’t know. I shut the door on it. It’s that dog that lives at the corner house.” He opened the door and peered out. It was gone. I scanned the garage, playing a dangerous game of “Where’s Waldo, Rabid Edition.” I stepped into the garage cautiously and waited for the sound of dog paws running on pavement preparing to lunge at me. Halfway out of the garage and the dog appeared from behind my car.

“FUCK!” I mumbled. “Don’t make eye contact…DON’T MAKE EYE CONTACT!” I said out loud as if to document to Ryan that I was taking the proper precautions to avoid a savage animal vs. woman confrontation. “They can smell fear!” I said in a half-laughing, half-distressed tone.

“Hurry and get inside the car,” Ryan said in the most calm voice he could, but it just filled me with more panic. A small figure appeared from the rear of my car; the dog walked around to the driver’s side. How fast can Ryan get to me if I got attacked right now? I thought.

“Oh God!” I exclaimed. I looked at Ryan and said, “This is how the zombie apocalypse starts!” I recoiled in the safety of my car. I started engine and looked in all directions before backing up. There was no sign of the four-legged demon. I put the car in reverse and the rearview backup camera screen appeared. The dog stood there at what looked like six feet behind the car. I stepped on the brake and watched as it stood there panting, its tongue still lolling at the side. I froze, unable to curse at it or even honk the horn. It looked around before skipping off back in the direction toward its home.

I lived to fight another day.

Q&A: Mama’s Boy

mamas boyHi guys! Me and my boyfriend are fairly young, early twenties, and we haven’t been dating super long, but we have both discussed marriage and being together for the long haul! We both know what we want out of life, and we know that we love each other. However, there is one problem and I’m not exactly sure how to deal with it…he is very close with his mother due to the fact that he is all she has. Her parents have passed and she has no siblings or any other children. Recently he told me that his mother would always come first to him, and I understand wanting to be there for her, but I don’t think that’s necessarily fair when it comes to my relationship with him. He says that I need to be okay with her going on vacations with us, but I think I deserve my own time. I love his mom, she’s probably one of the sweetest ladies I’ve ever met, but still, it can get annoying since he tells her everything and they talk daily. I guess what I’m trying to ask is: am I being selfish for wanting him to put me as a top priority in his life and put me first sometimes?

Venice’s response:
What a good son for looking out for his mother. She’s very lucky to have a son who worries for his mother’s well-being. With that being said, I definitely do not think you’re being selfish for wanting to be top priority. It’s natural people in a budding relationship to want to be with each other as much as possible. It’s part of the bonding process. It helps establish a couple’s places in the relationship. It’s a test to see how the other reacts to stressors in the relationship, i.e. needy mothers.

Additionally, your boyfriend needs to realize that it is YOU that he will one day marry, not his mother. I understand his love for her and her current state of loneliness, but he must learn to balance his time between you and her. Not only that, but she needs to stop relying on her son for emotional support. He is his own man now which means that he has to learn to make decisions that will keep everyone happy and satisfied. Being in a relationship is hard work and whether she knows it or not, her intruding on his relationship can potentially do a lot of damage just by preventing him from spending time with you. When Ryan and I were still dating, he let me know..no, he showed me that I was his top priority. Even when we were separated by distance, we ensured that our relationship and our happiness took precedence. We made sure that we talked every single day, whether it was by text or by telephone, most of the time it was both. I sent him care packages, and he visited while he was on break from school. He even missed his first first nephew’s baby christening because he didn’t want to miss my phone call. To be fair, I didn’t ask him to. But maybe Ryan can shed some light on that…

As far as him telling her everything…um, why does he do that? The occasional motherly advice is warranted, yes. But he should really consider keeping his love life personal. Allowing her to know the little details of your relationship keeps you both under the microscope. Nip that in the bud FAST. Years from now, I’d hate to hear, “Do you still have a problem with climaxing with the light on? Did he tell you what I suggested to him?” GOD.

You can suggest to your boyfriend to take his mother out once or twice a week (a movie, lunch, shopping, etc.), maybe during a time when you’re at work, school, or when you’re out with your own friends. He doesn’t need to spend all of his free time with her. Quality, not quantity, will make her appreciative of him. Sabotaging his relationships is NOT in her best interest. It will lead to one failed relationship (if not marriage) after another, then he will never have kids, which will lead to the destruction of their blood line. And even though that is a hypothetical/worst case scenario, you could see that mothers aren’t mean to be part of the relationship equation.

Ryan’s response:
No, you are not being selfish for wanting him to put you first.  His mother will always be important in his life but a wife should always be first.  As of now you aren’t his wife so maybe that’s the issue.  However, if he has asked you to marry him then he needs to know you come first.  You are the only person in his life that he will ever “pick” to be with him forever. You need to be compatible.  Your personalities need to fit.  You’ve got to be his top priority because you are the only person in his life that isn’t bonded by blood.  In other words, your relationship is only permanent because of a promise (or court document).  His mother, his family, and his future children were all put in his life (or will be put in his life) without him really having a choice if he will be compatible. Whether he likes their personalities or not, they will be in his life forever.  You are the one person he has to keep happy and be happy with, otherwise the relationship can dissolve. Therefore, a wife should always be the number one priority in a man’s life.  I know it sounds bad that I mention he should even put you above his future children, but the point is, his (your) children will eventually reach 18, move on, have their own families (wives/husbands that they will also need to put their mothers/fathers), and he will still be with you.  Your marriage goal should be to grow old together, without compromising your own happiness.

With that being said, my answer depends on whether or not your boyfriend really wants to marry you.
