My First Love-Meet the Mutton


My nephew is the most amazing creature I have yet to meet. He is so inquisitive, inspiring, and nurturing all at the same time. He is just a baby yet he places so many rolls. He needs care and to be filled with love by another human. One that can be so selfless ro give him their own life. I look at him with so much respect. Through him I know what true honest love is. I know when I look at him that I feel love. For the first time I can say that I know what love is….I feel it but I see it with him as well. It’s like colors everywhere. Each color shows an emotion for him. It may seem weird to put it like that but I see and feel my love for him. I wanna be like him. I wanna have that look that he has in his eyes…..The honesty behind them is pure and short. Hopefully I can help him to maintain that about himself. It’s a characteristic we all come with but is lost in all the shuffle. As he needs and depends on the care of others, he to can be a care giver to the very dear one who provides for him. I lay in pain while my eyes tear up from the scratches my contacts gave to my cornia’s…..and he rubs my arm up and down. It feels just as comforting as the touch of my mother’s hand. He proceeds to say, “Are you ok?” Though I am in pain, suddenly it’s not so bad. So I reply with a smile and “I’m ok”. I am crying inside with joy. He just amazes me over and over. I never knew a child could be so much more grown up than have of adults living today.

Skank!!

skank


The word "skank" is used to describe a person (originally a woman or girl) who is considered dirty or diseased because he or she is promiscuous or slutty. It is implied that a skank spreads sexually transmitted diseases. You may also hear "skank" used as an adjective to describe a thing or a place. As in, "Dude, that bathroom is skanky."

The roots of the word skank are slightly unclear, but it may come from the word "skag", a word that originated in the African-American community in the 1920s to mean a dirty, unclean woman of questionable repute. "Skank" is also a type of reggae/ska dance in which the dancers bend at the waist, and flail their arms in the air. The gyration of the hips during this dance may have lead to views of women who danced in this style as knowledgeable about sexuality and therefore "skanky." Either way, the term is racially charged, though that aspect of the word seems to be largely forgotten or ignored these days.

Sometimes it seems women who have lots of sex are "skanks", "hos","bitches" and "sluts," while men are virtually immune to "skankiness". Emily White explores the causes and repercussions of this double standard in her book, Fast Girls: Teenage Tribes and the Myth of the Slut.
