First, I must say that I will be everything but politically
correct in this blog. So for those who rather close their eyes than face the
truth because it’s not as cute as they would want, you may want to skip this
blog.
I'm just a bit tired about the volunteer blindness
toward life and realities. For me being politically correct, end up 95% of the
time being hypocrite. And the biggest lies and the ones we tell ourselves.
I hate it when I hear "Physical appearance is not
important, it’s what's inside that count." I'm sorry but it is
important. Come on, the first impression that people get of you is what you
look like. If you are dirty, well there's a good chance that you will be dirty
at home and in your daily life. If you can't put any effort on yourself well
how can I expect you to put effort in anything or anybody else?
It's a fact, when I see someone on the street or in a
bar, or anywhere else for that matter, I don't see his amazing sense of humor
or his friendly personality; I see his physique. And that's what most
likely will decide me to talk or not to that person. I will agree with all of
you who are going say, "Some people will become really beautiful once you
know them." That's true. I’ll give you that. When it's the friend of a
friend or the guy/girl from work because in those circumstances, the personality
will quickly comes into play and will change your perspective. But if you are honest with yourself, you would have
never spoken to half of those people without having first been introduced by a
third party. It's just a fact. It's human instinct.
If you put five guys in front of me and tell me to
choose with which one I want to go for a coffee, without knowing them at all, I
will go for the cutest one. I think it's just natural. It might be an error but
I will still go for it. Come on, if I can have the full package deal (cute and
intelligent) why not give it a try. That cute guy might lost all his sex appeal
the minute he’ll open his mouth, and I might have had a better time with that
more average looking guy, but a fact remain, I would have gone for the cute guy
first.
I think you are a liar and a hypocrite if you tell me
that instinctively you would go for the little chubby in jogging pants with
glasses. People are so desperate to look like a nice person but pretending
doesn’t make you look nice it's just makes you a liar.
Don't get me wrong; I'm not that superficial. I am not
saying that women must be a size 0 and dress up with top brand clothes to be
sexy and beautiful. Quite the opposite, I think Queen Latifah is one of the
most beautiful women out there and she is far from a size 0. I don’t think that
every man must have a six-pack to look good either. But I believe in a minimum
of self-respect and self-care.
I am just honest. I'm talking about the first
impression and there's nothing that you can say that would change the fact,
that the first thing everyone see about you is your physique. Then, if you're
the guy/girl at work or the friend of a friend, you will have the chance to
show your amazing sense of humor and your fantastic personality, and we might
fall in love, get married, have children and the house in the 450. But can we
all agree that it's not the personality that we see first. Love at first
sight!!! Here you go, sight, not personality, not sense of humor: sight!
Simply and only sight. The rest comes after. It might be sad but that's the
truth, so let just face it.
Another thing that I hate to hear "Sex is not
important in a relationship." Sorry, it's a huge part of it. That's the
difference between your best friend and your partner. Your partner is suppose
to be your best friend with options, so if there's no option, well sorry, but
for me, you are friends not lovers. It would be like having a Ferrari but never
drive faster than 50km/h. No, to get you kick with your Ferrari you need to
drive it 150km/h on the highway.
Then there’s the people who says, "I would love
you no matter what, even if you were totally poor and living on the
street." Yeah right! That's cute in a movie or in a song, but can we all
admit that reality is a bit different. The successful businessman will rarely
go out with the cashier at Mcdo. And this doesn’t mean he is superficial, it
just mean that we mingle with people that share our interest, ambition and
passion. It’s part of the life’s rhythm. It’s easier to go along when you are
on the same beat.
I hate that me saying those things makes me sound
superficial, self-center and bother line discriminatory. I don’t believe that
thinking those things without saying it makes you a better person. Quite the
opposite, shouldn’t honestly prevail over looking good to the public eye.
It’s so sad. You can’t say anything anymore without
the fear of being catalog superficial, disrespectful and sometime even being
suit. There are so many associations to protect everyone and anybody “rights”.
It would be a good thing if it wasn’t taken so lightly and people were not
abusing it. Here’s the thing: you can’t please everybody. People don’t realize
that by fighting for their rights, sometimes they remove someone else rights.
How is that fair? But shut, we can’t say that because then we are call racist,
discriminatory and worst.
I can’t say Merry Christmas anymore because it’s not
politically correct for those who don’t celebrate Christmas. Here’s an idea:
let me believe in Santa as I let you believe in any of your God.
As a francophone, I can’t say that I don’t give a damn
that the new Montreal Canadian’s coach only speak English because it’s an
insult to my roots. I should be screaming loud and clear that we are in Quebec
and that French should be mandatory.
I can’t say that I don’t like Celine Dion because she
worked so hard to be where she is and she’s from Quebec so she should be my
pride and joy. Furthermore, I’ll be call jealous.
I can’t say that my friend is black. No she’s African
American or a visible minority. Maybe it’s just me but I would rather being
call black if that’s what I am than a visible minority. That’s sound a lot more
discriminatory to me!
I have friends from all groups of ages, nationalities,
religions and sexual orientation. They are all different and unique in their
own way. I speak two languages and I love Christmas but to be politically correct, I should say happy holidays, don’t use the
word short, tall, chubby, fat, old, young, black, yellow or orange, don’t
mention any religions, languages or sexual orientations, and praise everything
from Quebec because that’s where I was born. Basically, I should wear blinkers
like horses do, keep a tunnel vision and make sure I don’t deviate from the
public opinion. God forbids, I would have an opinion of my own and express it!
Yeah I don’t think so. Now I can hear some of you
screaming to scandal; calling me superficial or bitch. I guess it’s a question
of point of view. I’ll wear the suit if it makes you feel better, but at least
I am honest and I am not hiding myself behind that pre-made politically correct
image to look good to your eyes. I assume myself and my thoughts, and if more
people could to do that, we could avoid a lot of disillusions in life.
