embarrassed to be female?

i watched meangirls today. it's so much like my high school it's frightening.
and then i was informed that one of our sororities wants to recruit me. i don't do the whole sorority thing. i don't want to live with a bunch of girls. girls are catty and i much prefer to hang out with guys. at least if they don't like you they're up front with you about it. girls are also much more prone to freak out about stupid stuff i think. in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter what you wear, when you wear it, little things like that. girls seem to attach far too much importance to fitting in and being like everyone else, and it embarrasses me. yes, i am embarrassed to be female sometimes.
sarah palin does that to me too. she's ignorant and pretends not to be. she feels like such a throwback to a pre-women's lib era. and worst, she seemed to want to use religion to justify her platform. i'm not saying you can't have religious beliefs that color your personal beliefs as well: i think most people do. but you can't use religion as an excuse for a standpoint. your own understanding of your religion affects your stance on issues, not the religion itself.
i think i'm just in a mood today...
