I have to go to a wedding this afternoon and everyone I've told or who knows about it has asked me if I am bringing a date and what kind of dress I will be wearing. When I tell them that there will be no date or dress they have consistently responded with a sympathetic "ohh, but you have to [get dressed up or bring someone]. Weddings are no fun if you [are not exposing your white bruised legs or are utterly alone]." I am not seeking pity from these people, yet they give it freely.
I feel like everyone my age is getting married, or falling in love, or having kids. I have no desire to do any of these things. Not now and maybe not for a while. If there was anytime where I had penis envy, it would be now. Because my lady parts are clearly a curse, I am expected to jump for joy over a Saturday morning wedding reception/ brunch were I have to play trivia games and eat egg casserole (gross) and supposedly I should get all hot and bothered at the idea of bringing a man anywhere. Strait men don't have to worry about any of these things, so why should I?
