Call Me ‘Exotic’

Recently, I found & read something surprising on a blog and then about a current young girl movement. They explained why they are emphatically against being labeled as, of all things, ‘exotic’. Their sentiment seems to stem from the word used to describe a particular the category of inanimate living things like animals, plants, fruits, or flowers. Therefore, it appeared degrading to them to be termed as such.

Yes, I agree with the freedom to think, feel, & form an opinion about anything in this world of ours. So I have no argument against those girls & young women, who feel this way. What one perceives, is, what one perceives..

Yet, as for me, I have an affinity with this word EXOTIC…

It is defined as very different, strange, unusual, & Mysterious…

In addition, something exotic is also seen as from another part of the world or from a foreign place.

Well, according the John 18:36, I AM EXOTIC!

Jesus answered, “My Kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight,….”

Because the Son of Man is my King, I belong to his Kingdom. And not of this world.

Truly, exotic-ness to a person is relative to the environment he or she lives in, like accents or produce. It is also a point of view. So, as a feminine woman, I personally don’t mind being grouped in with the flowers & fruits. Women have ALWAYS been associated with these things since the beginning of time, along with various types of foods or spices..

We are known as peaches, cherries, berries, & limes. Men refer to us as pumpkins, honey, sugar, & syrups! And aren’t we the roses, violets, and tulips of a man’s heart?

Oh, do think of me as Exotic!

There are many facial and physical features some people find exotic, like sharp cheek bones, coarse hair, sexy round eyes, & bubble butts, but I prefer my spirit be exotic above these. I desire to come from foreign lands & realms, to tell tales of special kingdoms forgotten by men. I want to share the native intangible gifts my presence brings to any person willing to embrace me. I love to be extra-ordinary, to deliver refreshment to anyone’s mundane lifestyle.

I breath to embody the EXOTIC.

Please tell me you aren’t offended by this & that you have another perspective on this word as well.

I am NOT that Salad Girl

I am NOT that salad girl…

Ok… We women have heard it from many men! They hate it when a girl they’re dating orders the salad and barely eats it. Well I’ve got the share something with you:

I am NOT that salad girl.

When I am fortunate to be graced with a man’s presence on a date, I give him the pleasure.

The pleasure of me eating meat
The pleasure of ordering for me
The pleasure of finishing the whole plate
The pleasure of being myself when I eat food
The pleasure of not demanding the most expensive, yet not choosing the cheapest
The pleasure of not telling him what he should & shouldn’t order
The pleasure of just letting him be him

You see I come to the date HUNGRY. And therefore, the man sees my food choice as realistic & acceptable, since it is what a normally choose. He knows it wont change later on. He learns that…

I am NOT that salad girl

I thought about my thoughts and almost titled this post ‘what women should order on a date’. Then I thought: what if there are some women allergic to meat, or worse, all foods except salads? What if for dietary or medical or religious reasons, they cannot eat whatever they want? What if they genuinely like..*gulp*…salads?

As the shock of my revelations calmed down, I realize that I can accept this. I will not ask them to change to please the man that can’t stand the salad ordering girl. But as for me, my house, & men that want to date me, I proudly declare that:

I am NOT that salad girl

What Men really Want, part 2

It’s easy to find out what men want, but to give it to them precisely in the uniqueness of their individuality, takes skills. Every man wants something that differs from other men, as each one is specific & has individual needs. But there are some general agreements that the following things are inherit in most men.

Our appreciation~
Men love it when we appreciate anything they do for us. From grand to small or little to big, it makes them feel good about doing something for you when you show genuine thankfulness towards them.

A safe place to open up~
Every man needs a nurturing nest to go to, when the harshness of this world beats against their soul each day. They want to come home to a place that they can rest, have peace, regenerate their spirits, & reveal their secrets.

Hidden gem(s) discovered in him~
Every one wants to feel unique, especially to the person they love & care about. When you draw out, magnify, & celebrate attributes in your man, he takes notice & beams inside. He feels good & thinks you’re special for acknowledging something lovely that others don’t. It could be anything that other men do not have, or don’t do, or are not.

Shown a deeper love~
Men want to experience love that they cannot get from their parents, their male buddies, or a child. They want a woman who is not afraid to love them. The type of love that is not afraid to reach out first & fully, while sinking past the surface, in order to share deeper emotions of love, kindness, tenderness, gentleness, & affection. This love shares loving thoughts & demonstrates loving behavior, at all times.

To be around a confident woman~
A woman who believes & knows she has something no other woman has is powerful. She accepts her imperfections as her unique trademark, which frees her to be able to enjoy sharing her true talents with her man. She isn’t insecure to the point of debilitation neither is she a nuisance toward other women. She simply is…radiating confidence!
