An interesting journey....

A woman is like another world, to which she is the tour guide. You're just supposed to get to know the tour guide before taking a tour.

The hip hop artist's attitude towards women seems different. They are always talking about pimping and buying or selling her. Maybe you already see the difference, they want to be the tour guide and not have her be the guide to her own world. These are those who want to use the body to sell the soul. They seem like adolescent boys. They are the boys of hip hop who just want to see hips, hop. One says of love, "I love you like a fat kid loves cake."

Yes, that seems accurate as far as their love. A fat kid looks at a cake through the baker's window and feels one thing, crass appetite. Oh, he might talk about meeting the baker of the cake and working or paying for the cake. Yet he really just wants to take the cake. Or maybe if he could just sneak in and stick his finger in the icing for a little taste of the cake. He may even pretend to say a little blessing about the cake before eating. But what he is really thinking the whole time is that he wants to just eat that cake right there and then, putting it on the floor to eat if he has to.

But he will find that he cannot have his cake and eat it too when trying to steal from the baker.
