Do you listen to Blog Talk Radio??? For those who do not know what it is, Blog Talk Radio is a web-based platform that allows callers to host a live call-in Internet broadcast without the use of complicated or expensive equipment. All that is needed simply a computer and a phone. As a listener, you listen the same way you would traditional radio...just on your computer. Cool, huh???
Well admittedly, I had never listened in until recently. While preparing for my upcoming interview, I thought it might behoove me to do a bit of research, so I might have a better an idea of what I could be in store for.
While listening to the show, I heard a guy confirm being involved in a committed relationship and also admit to having a spare tire... aka the fall guy or fall girl in this case. You could call it someone who you know will be there whenever you call. It could also be known as the number in the black book that never gets erased. The person you call whenever for whatever... and they are there for you. Are you that girl???
And while the two female co-hosts argued all the various reasons why this is all kinds of wrong... I couldn't help the pure frustration I experienced while listening in. Yes, it is all kinds of wrong and yes all of their points were 100% valid, at least from the female perspective. But the listener side of me just wanted to shake them both scream back at my computer screen... "DID YOU REALLY HEAR WHAT HE JUST SAID TO YOU???" Sadly, I don't think they really heard him.
He's got a spare tire and in so many words... he's not getting rid of her. He's not asking for permission... he's telling you what he's got! As the banter continued back and forth, at the end of the day, the points his co-hosts argued will not make him go home and change his evil ways. This is just one of the many reasons "WHY MEN HAVE ALL THE FUN!" Men know how to put their needs first. And while we ladies may not necessarily agree with this viewpoint, He's still gonna do what he does...that's just what men do.
Now my question is...
How many men think the same way? My guess is probably quite a few.
Then my next question is... Why aren't more women doing this too? Just another guess, but I would venture to say that there are probably far more men than there are women with spare tires.
Now that we are aware that there is a possibility that this could be the case with your man... do you as women subscribe to the theory... If you can't beat 'em... join 'em! Now that you are armed with a bit more information than you had yesterday...how do you intend to use it? Do you file it away in your mental filing cabinet, never to be seen again until it slaps you in the face when it pops up again, leaving you surprised and unprepared? Or do you flip that script ladies... and go out to get you one too? Maybe you already have one... Whatever you decide, just don't end up like the guy in the picture posted above. Clearly, he didn't have a spare when he needed one... and he looks like he could have used one!
Two wrongs may not make it right... but it certainly does give us an even playing field!
