I keep forgetting to do these song things--

Least Favorite Song

Hmm, well that's a whole lot to choose from, isn't it?
 
I can't stand a lot of country music because I think it really glorifies the south and the whole religious thing, and I'm sorry if this offends anyone but I'm tired of southern boys being romanticized because they're so wholesome and crap.  I lived in Nashville with my husband (then boyfriend) for a while and I felt like a second-class citizen.  I never met any clean-cut handsome boys with flirty smiles in cowboy hats.  (not that I was looking...ha...ha)  I met men who abused and cheated on their wives, guys who were members of the Klan, guys who would talk to my husband but not even acknowledge me.  No thank you.  So when my husband daydreams about chicken fried chicken and hot girls in Daisy Dukes and the laid back atmosphere of the south, I daydream about Boston, the ocean, fresh seafood and preppy guys who swear like sailors and still look cute doing it.


Oh...music.  What's my least favorite country song?  Little Bitty, by Alan Jackson.  I respect the guy for having such a successful career, but I want to shoot myself when I hear that song.

Youuu have just said everything I could never properly vocalize regarding country music and "wholesome country boys." The majority of my single friends (that have never dated, etc.) are only single because they're holding out for their "perfect, wholesome, country boy" which I tend to roll my eyes at. It's bitchy, but tbh, I've never met someone fitting their description that has treated me with any kind of politeness or common courtesy. :( Maybe it's just me, though.
