I have been on Twitter for a few years now.. I wasnt really active for those few years until recently. I would get on here and there and post every so often but the huge amount of tweets that would pop up on my feed were overwhelming so I would stop for months at a time. Well I got back into it a few weeks ago and am really getting the hang of it. I follow you you probably dont follow me, a creeper follows me, OH there is someone I know who follows me, more of me following famous people. Well a few days ago I came across a profile of another military wife, one whom I did not know in person. I am on military wives boards on facebook, not as much as I used to be but I am, so I figured why not follow her. Turns out she is part of this #milSO 'clan' I came to find that there are a ton of spouses who get on twitter and post either as their self, as a military spouse, or as an anonymous one, one who post about being a military spouses and wants other spouses to follow her without giving her real identity. Safe for her I guess..not safe for me if she is a creeper lol JK anyways there are TONS of these women. Army, Marines, Navy, Coast Guard, Air Force..tons. I started following a handful. A few days pass and I am noticing most of these girls are either young girlfriends in high school or just out of a military man OR a young young young military spouse.They post about them being away in BMT ( awe thats cute) and missing their man. I have no problem with this. I was that spouses once so sad as my husband was away at BMT. Maybe I can be of some assistance to these young women. That would be nice. I dont mind reading their sappy post...until they start posting their random thoughts that do not have to do with military. For example: something about smoking a 'cig' in their room and not going outside cuz its too cold and she doesnt give a f*** what her parents think ( without the *** of course) or some tweet with another complaint using curse words..and of course calling some girl a B****! That for sure must be tweeted when your young!!! DRAMA Anyways, it makes me mad..it makes me sad to hear these things. I know I was like that once and I realize how stupid I looked. These women little girls are supposed to be turning into women, military girl friends or wives AIR FORCE girl friends or wives. Do you know how ugly you sound when you are cussing over a tweet o in person. So trashy sounding. So disrespectful. You are a military SO you need to be classy. Trashy girls attract trashy men..or friends.. Those arent the people you want in your life for the long run. I really hope that these young girls realize how ugly they are when they speak or act like that. Im not saying im perfect because we all know Im far from but I have learned a lot..and those of you who know me, know its A LOT! So I would like to share my past experiences in hopes someone doesnt make those.
REMEMBER LADIES WE REPRESENT OUR MEN NOW. YOU ACT TRASHY PEOPLE THINK YOUR MILITARY SO IS TRASHY.
Think before you speak!! or in this case TWEET!!
This by no means is directed toward one person nor is it meant to be mean. I just want you to realize how you sound and think about how you want to represent your man!

ReplyDeleteI was feeling so annoyed tonight by all the cussing I see going around on all my online accounts between people i consider longtime friends. Did they always talk like this and I didn't notice or do they think it's cool now? I wanted to find a way to express how ugly it sounds coming from them and then I found your post. Be Classy not Trashy... I love it!!!
So glad you liked it!! I see it too much around the military community and its so sad. No women should act like this ever military or not!
