The article is so vague and ambiguous that it’s hard to even tell what she is saying, but I’m sure it’s on purpose to cover up her lack of substance.

But here is the kicker – after reading that stupid article, her Bio at the bottom is priceless:

“Kate Rose is an artist, free thinker, lover, writer, passionate yogi, teacher, mother, rule breaker, and rebel. … [more ambiguous gibberish] … She lives for adventure and wakes each morning with the excitement of a new day waiting to unfold at her feet.”

More like she wastes her time pretending to be some mysterious artist because she gets a nice alimony/child support check from the father of her kid. And spends her time wishing she could’ve kept a man around with NO B~~~~ to pay for her stuff and tell what to do.

…. mother…..

Ah yes. The plot thickens.

Why don’t they ever say “independent and strong”? It’s always “strong and independent”. Like she read it it a magazine.

Oh honey, we wouldn’t DREAM of *claiming* a “strong and independent” single mother, — erm. I mean, “woman”. Wouldn’t want to be accused of “oppressing” her and “claiming” her like a possession, or assume ownership of a piece of property. No way! are you KIDDING? We have (what did you call it? Oh yes…) the B~~~~ to let you remain “strong and independent” because that’s exactly where you deserve to be. Preferably forever.

Thank you for showing me everything that I don’t want, so that when I finally come face-to-face with what I do want—I’ll have the courage to go after it.

Are you openly admitting that you can’t even figure out “what you want” until a MAN points it out to you? Careful there. That doesn’t sound very “strong and independent” when you can’t even make up your own mind about “what you want”. That doesn’t even take any skill or introspection. But that’s how we know you “strong and independent” types figure out “what you want”. Because you shop for men using ELIMINATION – using the American Idol method. It’s not actually the BEST you will end up with. It’ just… the last of the eliminated.

When a man seeks a girlfriend or a wife – or a mobile phone – he compares and contrasts all the POSITIVE features, and makes a purchase decision based on that – before having the b~~~~ to “claim” it for himself. A *strong and independent* woman smashes every iPhone (and man) on the ground, and whichever one doesn’t break (and puts up with her s~~~ tests) … thats the one she ends up with. Then she will convince herself “he’s THE ONE”.

You need to be shown what you DON’T want, just to figure out what you DO want.

There are only two words for that:

IN.

SANE.

Thank you for helping make me into the strong confident woman that I am today.

Well since you can’t even confidently make up your own mind unless a man makes it FOR you, then you’re not as strong and confident as you pretend. But it sure SOUNDS good, doesn’t it sweetie?

In looking at what emotions the behaviors of the others were triggering in me I had the ability to look at myself and make the choice on how I wanted to feel. It was only through this experience that I learned no one can make me feel a certain way unless I give them permission to do so.

You just can’t make this s~~~ up!

Come on. How many fingers did you insert into your vagina while you wrote that sentence.
It was 3, wasn’t it. At least 2 in the pink, and one in the stink. For sure.

I am simply so grateful that you never loved me enough.

Says only a crazy person.

Thank you for showing me that I don’t want someone to be only half in love with me, or to merely appreciate me—but to leave them breathless.

You’re welcome. I’m getting there.

Thank you for teaching me that the love I seek is the one that is extraordinary.

Smashing every one on the ground doesn’t make the one that doesn’t shatter “extraordinary”. It’s just the one that didn’t break. You already admitted you wouldn’t know “extraordinary” if you were holding it in your hand. You couldn’t even know what “extraordinary” means unless a MAN pointed it out to you.

I will never fit into any sort of box or label.

AW come on, don’t be that way. You’re label is “strong and independent”. Like Louis Vuitton. On crack.

I was not put here to make others feel comfortable, but instead to make them feel alive.

Wow you’re good. I burned my hand on a red hot element once. It sure reminded me that I was alive. But I would never want to repeat it thankyouverymuch.

Thank you for never appreciating me for my individuality and spirit, because it taught me how important it is to stay true to myself.

LOLZ!

Although being alone was tinged in isolation at times, I realize now that it was in those moments that I was able to take root and bloom into myself.

Like you had a choice. Could throw you in solitary confinement and you would still “take root and bloom into yourself”.

Thank you for leaving me with my loneliness so I could find my way back to myself.

Don’t mention it. It was nothing really.

I was hanging out with a female friend a few days ago. She was… well… fat. She was getting messages on her personal she put up. I even tried to coach her about eliminating men. She rejected all of them, one after another. She should message them back and try to dig into them to see who they really are. No… rejected… rejected… This really fat girl rejected them all. She didn’t give a damn who they are because there was something wrong with their approach. She had this idea of how she wanted to be approached. Like a guy is supposed to just know her preferences. It’s like she expects him to be born just for her, and not to learn, but to just magically know her preferences. A man isn’t to learn and try to figure out the system, but to just know. The other women and what worked with them be damned… rejected… rejected…

All hail the matriarchy and its many surrogate mothers.  These women are beautiful flowers, liberated so they can bloom into the unique snowflakes that they are.

You’re welcome …. anytime 😆

After reading what she wrote several times, what I compressed it all down to was; “I’m looking for someone I can abuse that won’t run when they see who I really am”.

I seem to have left my claim check at the court house almost 20 years ago and haven’t gotten around to retrieving it.  You’re an “INDEPENDENT” woman, find the right guy/girl/dildo/animal yourself.  Independence means having the ability and fortitude to do things for oneself, strength is a part of it, not a separate category. As for the “mother” badge of honour. Big f~~~ing deal, giving birth is like taking a dump. Its a part of natural life and is reasonably easy and painless in the western world. Get over yourself cupcake.
