The Mantra of the Heartless Bitch

December 18, 2006 | Filed Under The Heartless Bitch Way | No Comments

I am a Heartless Bitch because… 

… I will not be your emotional tampon
… I refuse to read traditional “Women’s magazines”
… I don’t need a romantic relationship to be happy
… I don’t play head-games
… I won’t accept a patronizing pat on the head
… I do not fear confrontation
… I refuse to play dumb or helpless to stroke a man’s ego
… I recognize that real empowerment is more than flaunting my sexuality
… I believe my body is my own, and what I do with it is MY choice
… I believe in true equality and not double-standards
… I’m not afraid of hard work, getting my hands dirty, or breaking a nail
… I do not tolerate whining, sniveling, or other forms of attention-getting behavior
… When I say “no”, it bloody well means NO. Not “maybe”. Not “try again later”
… When you ask my opinion, I will tell you the unvarnished truth with no sugar coating
… I take responsibility for my actions, and expect you to do the same with yours
… I won’t let society, the media, or anyone else tell me who I am or who I should be

For all these reasons and more, I am a HEARTLESS BITCH and proud of it!
