Higher Learning Chapter 1

Okay, I have spent most of my adult life thinking I was earning my PHD in women. Anyone who has attempted any level of college course can understand me when I say that some classes are fairly simple and you can probably make a C if you just show up every time. Then there are classes where you complete all of the homework and do extra credit and just barely make a C. I would say I earned my bachelors in women fairly easy with a B average. My Masters was even better as I layed a pretty good foundation in undergrad. But this PHD is turning out to be a major headache.



It seems that the wants and desires of the majority of the women just aren't what they used to be. Just to clear the air, I am not searching for a woman, but merely observing the behavior and interaction of males and females. This post will be the beginning of a series of higher learning about the interaction betweem today's male and female.



I found myself in Martini's of Birmingham this past Friday, which is a pretty nice establishment. I did my usual when I hit the scene, make my way to the bar and get a drink. I noticed a young lady standing at the bar, so I complimented her on her earrings. I didn't like them so much but I figured she wanted a compliment on them because they were huge and colorful. She gave me a smug look and said thank you all nasty. I just smiled and proceeded with procuring my drink. Not more than 39 seconds later, this girl complimented her on the earrings and she acted like she was 4 years old and the tooth fairy left 2 dollars underneath her pillow. Now, I'm no Denzel but I had on my white lenins, loafers, light blue 2-pocket longsleeved cotton shirt with the roll up sleeves that button up at the biceps, and a fresh haircut. Once you throw in the flashing lights, I had to atleast be an 8.5-9 on any scale. This behavior really had me thrown off. I then begin to make my rounds through the club trying to check it out from wall to wall. By that time the Beyonce song came on, you know the one where she goes through the foray of dances at the end...the scissor legs...tick fight..pat your weave...etc.. This girl, whom had some pink stretch pants on that seemed to have been molded onto her body, was putting in some work. She knew the entire routine and did a better job than B herself. This guy was admiring her the entire time, hell all the guys were admiring her the entire time, and he decided to try and talk to her. She shot him all the way down as if he simply wasn't worthy of her attention. She then proceeded to hi-five her girls and they partied hard the remainder of the night. Now I know sometimes women just go to the club to enjoy each other and have a good time and there is nothing wrong with that, however, understand that guys are going to holla at you. If you don't want guys to say anything to you then don't shower, wear jogging pants, a pullover, and a skull cap. Then maybe, just maybe, only one guy will try to holla. Other than that, just graciously smile and say no when he compliments you and tries to get your number. Imagine how you would feel if you wanted attention in the club and couldn't get it. So I guess what I'm trying to determine is, isn't it human nature for the woman to dress up and show her inner/outer beauty and for the guy to give his appreciation? Has that law changed into women dress up and get down in order to be admired by their friends and strangers of the same sex? What is a guy to do?
