The art of women

Women are beautiful, even if not specifically physically appealing to every single man. It is a cliche but it is non the less true that physically beauty passes but inner beauty is what last a life time.

With that said, there is still a certain appeal to be had for a woman that can turn your head. Admittedly it is sometimes hard not to admire the beauty of a woman. I believe there is nothing wrong with finding a woman attractive, it is what you do after that, that may land you in trouble or awkward situations.

When admiration turns to lust that’s when things have gone too far, if you cannot stop your stare, if you give more than a glance, something has gone wrong. Though woman are beautiful like art, they are not hanging on gallery walls, they are not alive only for your eyes to consume. Though a woman may be appealing she is not a piece of art here only for enjoyment.

And though sometimes they dress in a way that may suggesting asking for attention, it doesn’t mean you should give it. There are a lot of things in society that want our attention and we don’t give it. The homeless person asking for food, the urgent issues that need addressing in our respective communities, we know how to ignore, turn on the blinders when we want to.

You may see that girl in the thigh hugging shorts, but need you stare? For what reason? Among other things it is her right to dress her body as she wants. People will treat her according but its still her right to represent herself the way she see's fit. Worse of all she may not be aware of how she looks, she may not even care, but the worse thing that can be done is staring her down like she is for sale.

True women inspire art, they are even living pieces of art, but they are not art pieces. No need to stare.
