“Girls are like apples… the best ones are at the top of the trees. The boys don’t want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples that are on the ground that aren’t as good, but easy. So the apples at the top think there is something wrong with them, when, in reality, they are amazing. They just have to wait for the right boy to come along, the one who’s brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree…”

Cute but not quite.. let’s rewrite this to make it more realistic:

Girls are like apples… the best ones are at the top of the trees. The boys are lazy and don’t want to reach for the good ones because it takes too much effort. Instead, they just get the rotten apples that are on the ground that aren’t as good, and easily juggle a couple of those around. So the apples at the top think there is something wrong with them, when, in reality, the boys they like aren’t worth shit. So unfortunately, they just have to wait & wait & wait for the chance one boy they like wont think with their dick and climb all the way to the top of the damn tree.

*I’ve already been “picked,” so this is hardly a pessimistic rebuttal, just a basic fact of life.
