"Boho blouses are warm weather essentials" and that's my main excuse mantra for spending all my money on it. Don't blame me. They have tassels, lace, embroidery and they are super cute. And above all, easy for creating spring summer looks. So, if you wanna be a bohemian girl in the city, give an embroidered top a bit of coolness and pair it with a ripped boyfriend jeans, fringe bag and mules. Simple as that! ;)

Female Hypergamy is an Adaptation Survival Strategy Rooted in Biological and Socio-economic Factors.


       Female hypergamy is a biological mechanism women developed for survival that is still very observable and and quantified nowadays in the 21st century despite our advances as a civilization. Many sex typical behaviors are rooted in our own inherent nature despite all the rationalization done by the feminists and neo progressives inside academia pulling their buzzwords like "patriarchy" and "social construct".

In this article, we will look at the science behind female sexual predilection and choices based purely on biological and psychological reasons. Women prefer more intelligent, creative and more masculine men who perform physical tasks, which produces stronger and more intelligent children:

       Women also prefer gifts and material wealth as signs of affection and romance, while men just see them as tools of courtship to gain sexual favors, as we can read in a study titled, " 'Heck with the flowers and candy—I just want sex!' Women’s and men’s agreement and disagreement about romance":

"As a concise definition of romance is virtually absent in the literature, based on our analysis of scientific and layperson construal of romance, we define it as an orientation toward a partner whereby 1 expresses love, caring, and sexuality to facilitate and solidify commitment. Of interest to the authors, men’s and women’s definitions of romance were similar, and they placed equal importance on romance in a committed relationship. However, men considered themselves to be less romantic than did women, and men considered romance to a means to sexual access more than did women. This evidence suggests that men, acknowledging its importance, may be just “playing the game” of romance to gain sexual access. These results can be interpreted through an evolutionary psychological framework vis-à-vis the fundamental reproductive differences between the sexes."
Women also associate sexual stimulation with material wealth, while seeing lower value objects as negative sexual stimuli, to the point of even upsetting them: all the while men placed no sexual value on wealth:

In another study, researchers examined the mate preferences in dating site that had a highly skewed sex ratio (646 men for 1,000 women). But despite all that, they still found that women remain highly selective of higher status men even during the study's "marriage squeeze" scenario:





Which Is It?



At six or seven, I got a little teary eyed after watching a Matador's freshly killed bull being dragged out of the stadium by horses. As the blood was being hosed away, The Old Man looked at me and said, "Hey, you either root for the Matador or the bull."

Happy - You Don't Know Shit From Shinola - Memorial Day


Always a problem... shit from Shinola (shine-oh-la)

I heard it growing up but,  being an Army Brat,  I was exposed to a lotta confusing military metaphors.  A favorite of the Old Man's was, "He couldn't pour piss out of a shoe." When I joined the Army, a less elegant but still charming version was heard in Basic Training, "He couldn't pour piss out of a boot with a direction arrow on the heel."  As a kid, I wondered why anyone would pour piss out of a shoe much less,  how the piss got in the shoe to begin with. As a recruit, it quickly became obvious that, "piss out of a shoe (or boot)" was all about incompetence --Of which there was a great deal in Basic Training on behalf of myself, my fellow recruits and the US Army.

These logophile nuggets increased through training.  Drill Sergeant Hunt was fond of, "If your brains were gasoline there wouldn't be enough to power a piss ant motorcycle half way 'round a fucking dime." Or, "If your brains were cotton there wouldn't be enough for a piss ant tampax."  Obviously Hunt had something for piss ants.  My favorite was, "You people move like old people fuck."  Not sure why other than I'm very visual and any sexual fantasy in Basic Training was welcome.   

Infantry school introduced me to, "He couldn't piss up a rope."  Again, a perplexing statement when taken out of  Army context but eloquent in describing raging incompetence with so few words. By Jump School, things got strange with the 'Black Hat' from South Texas who called everybody, "Stevie Wonder." If he caught you chewing gum, he took it out of your mouth and put in his adding, "You chewed all the flavor outta this gum, Stevie Wonder. Why would you do that to me?"

Using expressions like these, once assigned to a unit, were frowned upon. They had become tired and over used -- Much like double monks.  Barrack's poets would take the stage and while the target was the same incompetence...be it the Army or a man other (than yourself), personal style ruled -- I'll never forget the bookish and frequently busted 30-something Spec 5 from Los Angeles who called the XVIII Airborne Corps G-3 Sergeant Major, "An unmitigated asshole." At 19, I had no idea what 'unmitigated' meant but there was beauty in the meter of it that I still find attractive today.

I drove for a colonel, later a general, who left a briefing, climbed into my jeep, turned to me and said, "Tinseth, I'm so confused I don't know whether to scratch my watch or wind my ass." I dunno...I think the Spec 5 has it over the colonel. 

When I asked my Old Man what Shinola was, he explained it was boot polish and the origin of the phrase went as far back as WWII.  I didn't say anything but all I could think of was, why did black boot polish look like shit?  Was everyone eating black beans and rice?  What it took years for me to figure out (piss ant brains) was that the Army of WWII wore brown boots and Shinola made a brown polish. So... now you know, Stevie Wonder.
