Stand Up Honesty
June 9, 2009
I’m ashamed of myself today because I allowed a conversation to continue that I could have and should have stopped. Instead, I stood back and shook my head, keeping my thoughts of disgust internal.
It doesn’t do any good to keep those thoughts internal, it perpetuates the belief that you cosign the conversation and you’re now an accomplice. The first step towards redemption is acceptance through honesty.
I accept that I was more concerned with my perception at the time of the conversation than I was with the content of the conversation.
I willfully allowed my ego to dominate my decision making process in hopes to remain in good ties with the crowd.
By allowing the conversation to continue I became an accomplice in the propogation in the objectification of women.
By allowing the conversation to continue I allowed others to continue their belief that I am in acceptance of their belief in the objectification of women.
