In today's world--several of us have a megaphone, a one-way device that allows us to shout at others what we think they should mentally digest. Some people's megaphone is Facebook while others use Twitter and if you're lucky (luck is in the eye of the beholder) you have a reality show that transports your shouts even louder (especially if you count reruns). And Kim Kardashian has a loud megaphone--louder than the rest of the Kardashian klan and it seems many people are ready to snatch that bad boy away from her to keep her from shouting any further in order to teach her a lesson, but why?
Do you realize that Kim Kardashian is being true-to-self? She hasn't changed. She hasn't morally switched sides. She is still the pampered, "my way or the highway" type of gal we all fell for several porn tapes ago. Why the backlash? Did you pay for her wedding? Did you send her a blender and want it back? Did you lose your faith in love or marriage because hers only lasted 72 days, if so, you have bigger problems on your hands.
When people remain consistent in their behavior--as Kim has-- yet there's a major shift in how they're perceived, the only scale you can claim is yours. Did your scale move over to the left (now you hate her) or the right (now you like her)? Why? Dig deeper into your own life to examine what about her actions pissed you off so much or made you like her more--only then can you own your reaction and stand by it.
I see it all the time in relationships and dating--people complaining about being single, then they complain about their new love being too short or too hairy or they aren't in the right income bracket and take to their personal megaphone to ask, "What should I do?"
At least Kim had enough sense to make her own decision--can we say the same about you? Did she ridicule marriage? To me, she didn't because I think people do it all the time, on and off reality shows. Have you checked the latest divorce rates? Have you checked out your neighbor's marriage? Your own? Marriage isn't a magic trip you take that offers guarantees.
Are you upset because it lasted only 72 days or because you are now 100% convinced it was all for publicity? We knew this was her personality type when we heard her screaming out Ray J's name on their sex tape. She is being consistent.
So do you dislike Kim Kardashian because you believe she isn't living life according to your plans--or because she has a bigger megaphone than you?
