Party time, Excellent.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I would like to not only welcome, but point your attention to the
Party Girl. I always forget to stop by the Sexcapade (not anymore, she's on the sidebar, baby!) but when I do it is always a treat. Her most recent post has me shouting her praises because of all the things she'd spend her money on, I would drop everything to join her in this endeavor:

I will start an organization that promotes women's issues. In all countries, not just in the Third World. Something has happened to women's self-esteem and self-worth. The stories I hear everyday of a young women not valuing herself breaks my heart and makes me mad.Education in terms of teaching young girls, starting in pre-adolescence, to value themselves.Market ads that show real women, who have real bodies. Not bodies that are a size 2 or 0 with fake boobs. That isn't what we look like. Show bodies with natural curves, all shapes, all sizes.Go to Third World countries and teach/educate that women do have self-worth, value. Female infantgenocide is still very much happening. Women are not valued. However, I think that the same thing can be said in this country as well. I'm not saying we are killing our baby girls as soon as they are born, but we are teaching them not to value themselves. The images that are shown everyday of what a 'real' women is aren't accurate. We are told what we are supposed to look like, how stupid and sexual we are to act, and how smart we aren't supposed to be. These are all thrown at us constantly and we wonder why we aren't happy and why we can't achieve it.I would promote and educate in terms of: birth control, education, safe sex practices, values, health care. This includes all things big and small all things that can be thought of.

A smart, sexy, conscious woman. My vote for president?? PARTY GIRL!

I enjoy her posts too but I also forget to go to her site as often as I'd like. She definitely strikes me as someone who'd be a blast to hang out with.

Whoa, girl! Thanks for the shout-out, thanks for stopping by, thanks for adding me.
Your debt has officially been added to the counter.

There are certainly a few things that I can get on a soapbox about this is simply one of them. However, if I had the money; no hesitation- it would happen, it would get started, I would change the world.
One little Party Girl at a time. I would make it my life's mission.
