So, I have received my first “hate mail” regarding my blog. Whooo hooo! It was from a total stranger and wow...she ripped me a new one! I was thinking about pasting it in it's entirety in this post but decided that the writer doesn't deserve a public forum. This woman (and judging from her email I use the term very loosely) called me pathetic, self-loathing and insecure. Oh. Your. God...my spirit is crushed. I must phone and make an emergency therapy appointment immediately!
It seems the trigger for this hissy fit was my blog on Spring where I suggest that there are only 2 women on the planet who can/should wear “booty shorts”. She said I was (and I quote) “shaming fat people”. What? Where in that blog did I say anything negative about overweight people? There are tons of girls with kick-ass bodies and I still don't think they should wear booty shorts! They are ugly, cheap looking and a crime against fashion! And, why the hell would I make those struggling with weight my target when I have had my own struggles?
Let's get one thing straight. My blog is solely based on my personal opinions and how I see things. I do not set out to personally offend anyone, ever. If that does happen? Well, there's nothing I can do about it. Some people are just overly sensitive and you know what? If you don't like what I have to say? Don't read my blog! Simple as that.
I can't begin to tell you how much shit I don't agree with every single day. Sometimes I voice my opinion, sometimes I think it best to keep my mouth shut. But, I ALWAYS respect the opinions of others. I mean really...wouldn't life be boring if we all had the same views?
Bottom line: I am not going to censor myself or apologize for my opinions. Ever.
