My wonderful grandmother passed away earlier this summer; I wanted to make a painting in her honor. It isn’t meant to look like her so much as invoke the peaceful feeling of her. Her favorite birds were cardinals and her favorite flowers were irises, so I included both. ❤
Lovely addition to my #bespectacled heroines tag and my #veteran adventuresses tag!
K, the younger ladies are awesome but the older ladies absolutely steal the hell outta this show. (PS Nice to see the uniforms and decorations aren’t completely off the wall)
I think the “women are mysterious” thing can also come from:
1) Women actually being quite clear, but not telling men what they want to hear. ”She said she doesn’t want to talk to me? So many mixed messages and confusing signals!”
2) Women not having cheat codes. ”I tried being nice, and she didn’t have sex with me. I tried being an asshole, and she didn’t have sex with me. Come on, there’s got to be some kind of solution to this puzzle!”
3) Women not being a hive mind. ”First a woman told me that she likes guys with big muscles. Then the very next day a woman told me she thinks muscles aren’t attractive at all. Make up your mind, women!”
4) An individual woman doing something confusing, and instead of asking “why is she doing this now?” men ask “why do women always do this?”
If women made dating profiles like men do: “Name’s Tiffany. 21, single, and ready to mingle. DON’T message me if you are one of those fake manly men who is obsessed with growing a beard, wearing flannel, or sports. I’m only interested in someone real, that I can chill with, watching Kate Hudson movies or discussing fashion. I like a bf who can be one of the girls someone I can talk to without spending hours obsessing over his car or snowboarding. Tired of all the high-maintenance fakes.”
A woman is only vulnerable when her nail polish is drying, and even then she can still pull a trigger.
some great quote I heard somewhere once upon a time and that is very, very true (via fawun)
