Welcome to the latest edition of “Weekly Rant by the Sexually Frustrated,” a weekly column written by me, the fabulous Campus Diva who needs to get some things off her chest. Read about how girls need to fudge “girl code” once in awhile after the jump.
As girls grow up and we realize the correlation between our vaginas and guys nether regions, we are hit with a lot of names depending on which guys we go for. Slut, home wrecker, prude, virgin, the names are endless. But are these names always necessary? Sure, it’s one thing if a girl goes around sleeping with every guy who looks in her direction, but what about when it comes to “girl code?”
For those of you who are unaware, “girl code” means you are never to hook up with, talk to seductively, or sleep with a guy who your friend has history with. But what are the limitations of this “girl code?” See now, I would NEVER sleep with or even look twice at a guy who one of my best friends is into or has history with. But at what point does “girl code” not apply?
See now, I recently started talking to this guy who used to date a girl I used to be friends with. Her and I were very close in high school when they were dating, but high school is several years ago. And I only see this girl due to mutual friends. So why should “girl code” apply?
But I still informed the girl so that I wasn’t being a sketchy bitch, and if she had a severe issue with it, I wouldn’t talk to him. But instead of answering me like an adult, she chose to give me the cold shoulder and act nasty toward me, and obviously it’s because I apparently breached “girl code.” But why is that the case?
It goes two ways. The first way is, you do not speak to guys your friends are interested in because, hey, there are plenty of fish in the sea, right? But the second way to look at it is, if “girl code” applied to every guy, what guys are left? There aren’t that many frickin fish out there.
I think this same idea also applies to guys. If your best friend was hooking up or dating a chick, obviously you’d be a dick to hook up with her. But what about a guy you sometimes hang out with, would you have the same level of respect for that relationship? Probably not, because the need to get laid with someone you’re interested in surpasses this level of respect.
So why should it be different for girls? Don’t call me a slut, my name is Sexually Frustrated for Christ’s sake. I just happen to be into your exboyfriend, so don’t all of a sudden act like we’re close friends again.
So to sum up, never hook up with your best friend’s guys, but why the fudge not hook up with an acquaintance’s ex? It’s hard enough to find a decent guy as it is, so fudge this whole “girl code” bullstuff. And don’t talk stuff about me for doing it. If the tables were turned, guaranteed you would do the same thing, so get off your pedestal girls, and chill with this “girl code” bullstuff.
