Leading with your
Sexuality.
Does anyone get upset when people lead with their sexuality to get ahead in life? It really annoys me for some reason.
Especially, as a woman to see other women use this as a way to get out of a ticket, get promoted, get the job, get...anything, really.
We are so much more than what we look like and what we can do in bed.
I want to be respected and not given something just because I've got a pretty face or I can bite my lip and bat my lashes, but because I work hard and because I deserve it.
I know men do this too - and honestly, it annoys be equally as much.
Men/Women - do you fall for this? Willingly? Unwillingly?

I have a hard enough time feeling sexy in general, I don't think I could get a free pamphlet at a concert, much less out of a ticket.0

Right? Same thing with me.
I'm also horrible at manipulation in general.
Too honest. Too awkward.0 -
Well in all honesty this is a world where whether you like it or not you are judged based on looks. So whether you are willing or unwilling, it still happens.0

Being that a lot of looking good is based on damned hard work, I'm all for it and hope to use it to every advantage possible.0

I'm more annoyed by people using criminality to get ahead of me... Unmarried straight white male with no disability or criminal record doesn't fill any tickboxes on British employer's Equal Opportunities quota.0

I personally think it sucks, but ask this again next time you get pulled over and get out of the ticket. I guess it's just one of the perks of being a hot chick.0
