The Dog Call

It's always flattering when you hear a male do that long and slow whistle when they see you and you know that you look good. It is flattering, but sometimes it can be overused and annoying.

It is flattering. It's always flattering when someone compliments you on something, whether it be a physical characteristic or a mental one. And it's nice to give them to someone, to make someone else feel good about something they possess. But when it comes to males, I think the whistling thing can be over used.

I try not to over think it, and with the mind I have, what I do not want usually prevails when it comes to my mind, There's a saying that goes, "Don't whistle at me, I ain't a dog." and I can't help but remember that every time it happens. It happens a lot and it's usually just guys interested in the physical attributes a woman carries and how she carries herself-strong, sure, and in-control-WHICH IS HOW SHE SHOULD BE.  And it usually, in my experience, is sketchy looking males that drool at the pants a girl is wearing or the way her shirt clings to her chest and it's like, "Really? You're going to behave like you're still in High School?"

Where are the men? The one's that are polite creatures and leave all the promiscuity behind doors and to their imagination. The men that know how to treat a woman and respect her and actually come up to her to start a conversation to get to know her instead of looking at her, imagining to get to know her in bed? It really frustrates me, and maybe it's just me who thinks like this. Everyone learns things differently, but my mother--my best friend and beautiful role model--taught me how to behave when it comes to men.

It makes me laugh, thinking of my past and how boy crazy I was. How I always wanted attention from boys--negative or positive--and would literally chase after them. I swear, so many older women were so worried about me, and I'm sure I would be, too, if I were in there shoes. And it's so funny know because I'm with a man that I actually really care about and who treats me right. He had to be taught a few things first, but he knows what I tolerate and what I don't.

But some things just won't change, but as women, we can decide what we will accept for a man. But if all a man sees you is as an object, know that you are so so much more. You are a beautiful princess who deserves to be with a prince who will know how to treat her.
