as it is,in this world today there is sooo much saying we need equality or that we have equality but if you truthfully look at it this is not equal or anything even close to it all we have is a sick twisted illusion of what some people think equality is
i am warning you right now i may or may not sound racist or sexist to you but this is truly how i see things so please hear me out
people have tried very hard to make things equal but really truly think about it, people seem to think the only racism going on is toward Mexicans or native Americans or African Americans or that sexism is only being directed at women and this is so very far from the truth it makes me sick.
in my neighborhood for example,i am a minority as a white girl and i experience(along with my brothers and any other white kids i know around here) racism on an almost daily basis. in my school there is a native American club and an African American club and i don't see anything wrong with that at all but if i were to make a Caucasian or Anglo saxton club i would be suspended (does anyone else see the irony in that?) natives can wear shirts that say native pride but if i wore a shirt that said white pride I'd be called a KKK member. I think it's wrong that i am more or less told that i, as a white person, should be ashamed of my heritage.
now that i have made a bit of my point when it comes to racism lets talk about sexist people. ok yes i am a girl but am i the only one who thinks its a bit wrong that all a girl has to do is point a finger and say "he raped or made unwanted advances" and the guy can and most likely will be sent to jail whether he did it or not and even if he can somehow find evidence to prove he didn't (which is rare to find enough to make the court believe a man over a woman) he is still scarred for life, like if he for example happened to work in a school district he would be fired and unable to work in any school district ever again even though he proved himself innocent! i personally have a friend who broke up with his phsyco gf and she said he raped her and he was sent to jail for 3 years and he hadn't had sex with her once!! women are given so much power that so many women abuse completely. no matter what the situation, at work or in a court of law, they will believe the woman...am i the only on who sees something wrong with this?! I know that alot of woman are truly hurt and taken advantage of and i'm not saying those men should get away with it, i'm just saying that just because a girl points her finger at somebody doesn't mean he did it.
yes i believe that all people regardless of race age or sex should be treated equally....but it seems we are unable to do that because if we take care of one race or sex the other is chastised. why is a man who is white not allowed to say he's proud for who he is without being called racist or sexist? why is there a black history month and a woman's rights month and a native American history month but there is no white history month?
why can some other race call the white people whatever they want and if they try to defend themselves they are labeled racist?!?!?!!?
HATE AND RACISM ARE HUMAN TRAITS NOT JUST WHITE TRAITS
ok I've ranted quite a bit ne? well I'll probably add on to this later when my fingers stop cramping...
but please tell me your opinion on these issues, if you disagree fine but please tell me why you disagree.

The birth of my blog
Alright, here we go. This is the first post I will ever make to this blog and hopefully it won't be the last. I have realized recently that no matter how much i believe what i do now those beliefs will most likely change in ways i can't even begin to comprehend right now. it is because of this i have decided to create a blog. no matter how long it's been you can almost always find something that's been posted on the Internet. for example I found a picture i posted on photobucket three years after having deleted that account. the internet truly is an amazing place. there are, of course, ways this could be bad. for example if you put something embarrassing online it will most likely come back to haunt you at some point or another. I'm just ranting now...anyways i suppose I'll start by stating what i know about me and my life.
my name is blythe, i am currently 18, my biological father abandoned me at age 6, my mother took off when i was 15 so that she could party. I have a ferret named kodo after the ferret in the movie beast master. i am a christian. i love god but despise some of the people who work for him lol. i am straight but fight for equal rights. I love fantasy and mythology. my favorite Disney characters are tigger and jack skeleton.i like anime, especially the scarce ones.i want to travel someday, i especially want to visit japan and Hawaii. I am a hard worker but have yet to find employment...ever...(i live in a shitty economy what can i say, it was a bad year to graduate high school), i graduated with a 3.0 gpa, i cant afford college yet, i live at home with my ex-step dad and my three younger siblings.
I had so many plans as to where i wanted to be by the time i turned 18 and frankly not a single thing on my list has panned out so far, but I'm not giving up...
well i guess that's a pretty good starting post. I honestly don't care if people read my blog or not, its more for me than for the public.
