It's like an epidemic the way people are losing their minds to be "proud owners" of certain material things. The American culture has always been a part of the "trend followers" but it still amazes me. Even though it's men and women I can honestly say that females have it the worst. There is nothing wrong with treating yourself but at what point do you deserve a treat? You don't "deserve" to treat yourself to a $1,500 purse because you went to work for three weeks straight. You deserve to treat yourself to that bag once you have went to work everyday, paid all your bills saved some money and caught up on some old debt. So busy worried about a Louis Vuitton bag but you have not a dollar to put in it. Who are you trying to impress?! It has gotten to the point where a man can own your soul just because he bought you a pair of "Red Bottoms" but you can't even pronounce Christian Louboutin! Some of the women out here are two months behind on rent, crying to their case manager about their EBT allowance, no car, minimum wage job but I bet you have on True Religion Brand Jeans and a top handle hobo Gucci bag when you try and get that pay day advance tho. More power to all the women who randomly get gifts of that nature even though they didn't ask for them.... but how common is that? And if your man is cashing out on your wardrobe you should at LEAST be able to take care of your phone bill.. cut off every month! Stop trying to keep up with these "Desperate House Hoes of Wherever"! Reality TV is everything except real. And glorifying these material things makes your standards for the men you choose fictitious. You have forgotten about humble, strong and grounded. "He just better be able to buy me what I want.. and he gotta have on Loui dis Loui dat, diamonds here diamonds dere'."So now he's out knocking hard working people over the head just to be "The Man", hustling and afraid to be the ONE GUY who says "yea, I work a 9-5". Your kids are hungry, sick and your mother is tired but you have to go to the club to get you a "baller". Friends ain't even friends, just gotta be with a common crown Hungry Hungry Heffas". You better wake up because before you know it you'll be alone.... just you and yo bag.I am Ava. Detroit's Dreamgirl, self proclaimed but, whatever. I say the things that most people are afraid to say and do the the things most people never even think of. Don't forget to check me out on twitter! @TheAvaShow Video Blogs coming soon!!!..
