She Either Eats Grass Or Smokes It: The 2 Types Of Women In The World

My mother once told me, “There are two types of women in this world. The ones who value themselves and the ones who don’t.” Now, that’s very broad and generalized advice, but she was most definitely onto something.

Because as much as women can't be put into boxes, they can sometimes fall into groups, with overlapping qualities in the middle of each side.

Women are diverse and complicated creatures. You can’t categorize, idealize or corner them into one group. They cannot be defined by one subjective category.

Like any human, our traits and personalities are individualistic and diverse. But sometimes, just sometimes, you can so clearly see two sides of a spectrum and can't help but put yourself on one side.

You can't help but group yourself into a category that you feel separates you from the other side. You kind of enjoy allotting yourself a characteristic and letting people decipher what that means about you.

They are broad and generalized, but, f*ck it, sometimes they’re spot on. Sometimes you're either a woman who likes sports or a woman who doesn't.

There are women who like to shop and women who hate to shop. Women who get manicures and women who would never pay for something they can do themselves.

There’s no right side or wrong side, just two different sides. There are overarching categories that do separate one type of person from another. Like people who eat the crust and those who don’t, sometimes there’s a very clear, black and white line between the type of woman you are and the type you will never be.

And that's exactly why the stigmas and clichéd references need to stop; they're only representing one side of women. They are lumping all women into one rigid category, failing to look at the other side of the equation.

How can proclaiming that all women eat salad possibly represent all women? You really think every single woman on earth would choose a salad over a hamburger? Let's be real here, there's always going to be at least one who loves the meat.

Because as Donald Glover so gently put it, “There’s the women who give blow jobs, and the ones who ends up with cats and 'Twilight' DVDs.” And while there's no right or wrong way to live your life, there's most definitely a side that you're playing for.
