The Purpose

With a blog title such as the one I have decided upon, I feel it is important to tell readers who the "we" is and what the "things" are. There's more to it than you might think.

First, I would like to share a little background about myself that will give you some kind of idea of what you are in for if you do decide to follow this blog. Oh, please do follow. It will get good, I promise.

I am just a girl from a small town in New York. Shocking, right? Most people picture big buildings and taxis rocketing towards pedestrians, but there is more to New York than the city. However, it's not as interesting, so I can understand the misconception. It only helps make New York look better to picture it that way anyhow.

I have lived in small towns for most of my life, even though I had been shuttled around quite a few when I was younger. I even managed to move upstate for a bit to attend college, so I have been around....a little. During my extensive travels, I often spent free time people watching. If that "people watching" isn't clear enough, what I would do is sit at a bench outside or at a table in a coffee house and simply watch the people around me and the ways they would interact. I would see fights and hear those whispered conversations that, I mean honestly, everyone else could here as well. Try being quieter!

I find people to be interesting, but there is one side of the spectrum that I could relate to more, and have often been asked advice about, and that would be the women.

That brings us to the "we". Why do WOMEN do the things they do? Now, you must be thinking "How can she know why it is women do the things they do, when she hasn't met them all!?", and all I can say to that is that I simply don't. I do not have a psychology degree, I have not roamed the planet in the short span of time I have been here asking every woman I meet why it is she ordered the salad instead of the steak, or why she likes to take pictures at an angle. All I know is that I have watched a lot of people, I have spoken to a number of my friends about why they do what they do, and the fact is, I am a woman. I have SOME idea, don't I?

Is that enough for you? I can understand if it is not, but that is why this is a blog. I will have followers and I will have those abandoning ship due to my lack of credentials other than a vag. That's how the cookie crumbles.

Now we have come to the "things we do". To some women I may be seen as a traitor for sharing our little secrets, and to others I will seem like a liar, and to a fair few, I might just make some sense. There is a method to our (women) madness. We all know what the other is capable of. We all know that when we see another woman doing something like, for example, bending over to pick something up without bending her knees, is quite obviously showing off her goods to someone in that room. Maybe what I say does not apply to you. Maybe you are an exception to the rule, or maybe you are the type of woman that is aware of what a woman can do in a situation and doesn't always seize the opportunity, but notices when someone else does. Maybe, maybe, maybe.......

Again, this is simply a blog. Like it or hate it, I will say this for myself: I can be right.

It has happened.

So, as stated, you can leave this blog never to return or you can come back and love to hate me or love to love me. Personally, I'd prefer it if you all came back in either case.

Maybe I can even help. I am sure there are others out there wondering what it might mean if....(FILL IN THE BLANK) and I can help out, and so can others by leaving helpful tips and alternate meanings. Let's make this a joint effort!

Let's have fun, ladies and gentleman.
