Skanks at the Water Park

Today I decided to go to Knott's Soak City, which is a water park here in Southern Cali with my son, sister and niece.  Now this is a family friendly attraction but some of what I see walking around here is either mild porn with an occasional, "What in the HELL was she thinking?".
Now, when you have kids around in any given situation, a thong is not appropriate. Not even if you are wearing a lace cover up! How did they get past the front gate? Is there not a "No Skankiness" dress code here? 
As I look at the other mom's faces as Skank 1 and Skank 2 walk by, the "WTF" look crosses their faces as they turn their sons the other way and slap their husbands upside the head for looking at the Skanks.
I mean really, does someone have to explain what is and what isn't appropriate swimmingly attire at a water park? 
Maybe I can slide the Skanks my card so that they can check out my blog. There just may be hope for them after all!!!

ISN'T A BOUGHT LESSON BETTER?

     I know some of you wonder, what makes me the "authority" on relationships, dating and what a woman should and should not do in a relationship, etc?  The answer to the question is that I have either "been" that woman that I speak about or I "know" that woman.  In order to be able to give advice you have to know what your talking about and believe me, I wouldn't tell you anything wrong.
     I have often said that I am not an angel and truth be told, I have been through some things as far as men are concerned.  Throughout my life, I have seen women make the wrong choices and I have made some, as well.  The difference between myself and the women that I try to advise through my blog is that I have learned from my mistakes and the mistakes of others and I have made every effort not to repeat the same mistakes and made changes in my life.
     At the beginning of this year, I decided to work on ME.  I felt that it was time to get myself together, physically and emotionally.  During this time, I lost 30 pounds and as far a men and relationships were concerned, I did a whole 360.  I made the decision to not settle for bullshit and not put up with bullshit.  I decided to have higher expectations and require more of those that are in my life.

     When I write my post, I am simply trying to impart wisdom to women who may need it.  I hope that I am not coming across too preachy because that is not my intention.  I simply hope that the things that I write will shed light on issues that you may have never really given any thought to or help you in a situation that you didn't know how to handle.  They say the best lessons are bought ones and I am just trying to give you some lessons for free.
