My friends constantly hounded me after GE was born to get pregnant again. "You guys have a gorgeous daughter..you shouldn't waste those genes". or "You don't want her to be AN ONLY CHILD do you?!" or "Now you should try for A BOY!" (like that was the holy grail.)
Actually...I would tell them...THAT is my GREATEST FEAR! That the next one WOULD be a boy. I have NEVER in all my life wanted SONS. I come from a family full of girls. There are a few boy cousins and while sweet as pie they really are not as family oriented, as successful, as involved as the women.
Women pass on the traditions and the wisdom all the while they are out there every day making their mark on the world.
Little girls are the MOST fun humans on the planet.
It is all I can do to get through a play date with my daughters friends who are little boys.
They whine, they are inappropriate, they throw shit fits for no good reason, they tear up the place and most of the time I'm pretty sure they have mental issues.
The boys here at least.
One boy tried to KILL my daughter quite literally. The other was a whiner and would fall down on the floor and lose his mind THE SECOND the other children would not let him control the games/toys. And the other has behaviour issues, one being that he likes to try and rub himself against my daughter every chance he can.
(But the parents are total freaks too so who knows what occurs in that house.)
My husband has four brothers and two sisters. The sisters live in other states and the boys all live right next door to the parents (Except my husband). Guess who they see more? THE GIRLS!
That's right folks. My in-laws actually see more of their daughters and talk to them on the phone more than the sons who live less that a mile from their house!!!!
And there you have it...MEN.
Who is more successful in most families...the women.
So MY DREAM was always to have 3 little girls running around.
When we did have this latest oopsie I actually went into a depression at the thought that I could soon be the proud parent of a BOY. Seriously.
The clothes are boring, the toys are boring, the boy scouts, the stupid SPORTS games. I can't do it.
The day they told me it was a girl I almost FAINTED from joy. The tech said "Did you not want a boy?" My daughter was in the room with us and said "Heck no. Boys leave their mothers!" Everyone laughed. We were serious.
Who wants to spend their whole life wiping the nose and ass of a little being who will one day grow up and forget to call you on your BIRTHDAY. Who has their secretary/wife/sisters pick out the mothers day gift. (If your lucky enough to even get one from them).
No..give me a daughter. Give me a dozen of them!!
My husbands ex girlfriend said "God is punishing your karma with your other girlfriends by giving you daughters".
And that right there is why women are not further up the food chain than men despite our ability to think on both sides of our brain at once. (unlike males). They really do see themselves as inferior beings.
Pathetic.
I see us as the future of the world and the reason the family unit even exists any more.
THANK HEAVEN....for little girls.
