dumb dreams=?
all this talk about chivalry & where has it gone:
The night before I dreamt that I was riding a deer, a deer!!!, and wrestled up a stallion(horse) by rope and rode into the woods, past a pool, past a baseball diamond where there were a lot of losers jeering at me, then I ended up at a television set where I knew the cast members; it was their last show or something. One of the guys was flirting in the way guys do when they pretend that they hate you and you hate them back for acting that way; In the end he comes over and smacks me on the arse like a term of affection or something; He expected me to respond to this like we were in elementary school. Yes, many boys did this in elementary school. Run up to the girl, smack her bum and expect you to chase them. Boys! & Stupid dreams.
But I really wonder what did riding the deer mean and why was I stringing along a stallion???
There are still gentlemen who will walk on the right side of me, open doors, and stand when I exit the table. I am southern y'all, it's a way of life down there when a man is brought up properly. I see these actions as kind gestures. Sure, I can get my own door, change my own tire, install my own pc, cut my own grass, and lay my own floor tile, and still be quite the lady. Most people don't teach "manners" these days.
And as far as there being equality, puhlease!!!! Some things will be looked upon as equal treatment, but in terms of relationships it is rarely treated equal. In the back of the mind there is still the expectation of who should be doing what because you are the woman and they are the man or whichever role one assumes in some cases.
Not everyone is like this, I realize. But sometimes finding the ones who aren't are like mining for your own damn diamonds.
But for those who are kind and quite chivalrous, keep being you, the kind acts never go unnoticed!
