If I Were A Boy…

When I was younger I used to think that boys had it SO much easier. I thought that life would be much cruisier if I were a boy – free from the drama, hassles & riding the emotional rollercoaster that being a girl & having to deal with girls, as a girl, brings with it.

Sometimes, I still think along those lines, so I thought I’d tell you a little bit about myself, if I were a boy….

If I were a boy, I would have a beard. I would wear hats. I would use a pocket watch & smoke a pipe.

I would play the guitar.

I would have tattoos & ride a skateboard….

That’s just for starters.

  1. Well, you would definitely have to be running from me ;p

    but you know you could still do a lot of those thing (tho perhaps the beard would be a struggle)...
    have fun pretending!

    When you're a boy
    You can buy a home of your own

    Learn to drive and everything
    You'll get your share
    When you're a boy

    Boys

  4. Oh....if I were a boy I'd be a cowboy - or a Jackaroo if you must, but I like cowboy better :) Yeah and I'd play guitar too, just to charm the pretty ladies when I went to town ;)

  6. ....and what an awesome boy you would make!
    I so love that song "If I were a Boy". Beyonce was it? One of my all time favs.
    Hey crzylady, if Vic started shaving, she could probably coax a beard out. Look what happens when we shave our legs or underarms!! lol.
