A Southern Girl’s Reality
I know that most of these will have readers thinking a little about their behavior. These are based on my experiences growing up in the Heart of Dixie.

- Fat kids are only cute if they belong to someone else.
- Just because people don’t say that your children aren’t hideous doesn’t mean that they aren’t. Stop finding modeling agencies for your ugly kids.
- A politician’s wife supports him. She knows she’ll live in infamy for being married to an alpha male.
- You are only special to your family and friends.
- A hundred years after your death, nobody will care that you existed.
- Regardless of what they say, people don’t like hearing stories about your dog.
- If you are a woman and you join a predominantly male company, don’t whine when they won’t include you in their conversations.
- Women that file lawsuits because a man looked at them too long need to be fired for being too sensitive. Our husbands may work there. You make them uncomfortable.
- If you go out in a short skirt, halter- top and high heels, you WILL be looked at. Stop whining.
- If you don’t want to run the risk of being groped, think twice before heading out to a bar in the middle of the night and getting plastered
- If you can’t support your kids, stop reproducing. Work with what you have.
- Your kids are your responsibility, not your parents. Find a sitter…and pay them.
- No matter what you think, a pregnant teenager isn’t cute. She’s sad.
- If poetry helps you de-stress, that’s great. Stop reading it to everybody. The look on your face tells everyone your mood.
- If you punch a guy in the face, don’t be surprised if he hits back. To call the cops on him may land YOU in jail.
- High school only seems to last forever…if you’re unpopular.
- A tattoo on the lower back is called a “tramp stamp”. No that you know this, think twice before getting that butterfly.
- Naval piercings are no longer special. Every trailer-park trixie has one.
- Stop glaring at women in Wal-Mart. Nobody wants your boyfriend…even if you convince him to bathe.
- You may look good under bar-lights, but remember, there are always girls better looking than you.
- A white girl booty-dancing just looks stupid. Stop doing it.
- A mature woman does not like a violent man. It isn’t cute. It isn’t intimidating. We just feel sorry for you.
- If you’re a big girl and your skinny friend says that an outfit looks “cute” on you, go change.
- “Anorexic” isn’t a fashion statement.
- It may be flattering to be hit on by an older guy when you’re a teenager, but it doesn’t make it sexy. He’s a pervert who can’t find someone his age willing to date him.
- Smoking isn’t cool…especially when you have three teeth.
- If you think you are too fat to wear a bikini, don’t wear one.
- Moustaches on girls aren’t cute. How do you NOT notice it?
- It looks trashy to go without a bra if your breasts hang to your tummy.
- By the time you are 35, it isn’t sexy to be a drunk party girl. Go home.

“A hundred years after your death, nobody will care that you existed.”
OH? Speak for yourself, Lindsay, some people have a plan to make sure their contributions echo through recorded time. You see, Lindsay, this blog is going to forever be remembered as a legendary tribute to the world. Since you wrote for it, you’re going to be remembered long after your death. So it looks like your prophecy won’t come to pass.

I certainly appreciate the suggestion that this blog will be “remembered as a legendary tribute to the world,” but with all humility aside, I think that is saying a bit to much. Thanks anyway though - Frommyexperience.com owner.

Hey Southern Girl,
I enjoyed reading your post. I come from a Black/Creole culture. I have learned the same life lessons and basically think the same way.
I told my best friend, don’t name her child
“ShaBoogie”, she did. Hell, She named her son
“DreVonte Jermajesty, and her baby girl ‘LaThundra”. I told her how in the hell are they gonna get a job when they grow up? And yes she too is looking for modeling managements for these poor thangs. Her name is DelTrice.
Nuff said, lol.
Go ahead Girl!lol
