1 December is Global Demanding Beaytch Day

Tomorrow – 1 December 2010 has been nominated as Global Demanding Beaytch day.

How many times have we girls complained about ourselves in passing “OMG I was a total demanding bitch to him today”. Well you know what? I reckon we LOVE that Demanding Beaytch and give her a break and appreciate how she brings balance into our lives and to the lives of those who regularly experience her. :-)

Observe how she brings people together!

Be in awe at how she takes action!

Marvel at how she knows how to ask for what she wants!

Appreciate her intrinsic value and self worth!

To honour her, let her out tomorrow – give her free reign and stand back from her rough raw canvas and value the beauty of her crazy. To honour my own Demanding Beaytch instead of wishing to hide her and keep her quiet and well behaved, here are a few of my favourite quotes from and about powerful demanding beaytches across time and space:
