Hey, in case you’ve missed it on Facebook or the web, today is Steak and Blowjob Day, started by some guy someplace. Either you’re the kind of woman who’s amused by it and will acquiesce because you think it’ll be fun, or else you’re probably offended by the testosterone behind the notion.
I say go for it. I’d even throw in a beer. I’m just that kinda gal.
Me, though, I’m continuing in my role as decorator extraordinaire and getting cracking on my hallway — the last of my grand painting challenges for a while. (But not the last of the painting in the short-term, but anything left is an afternoon project.)
I’m so thrilled with how everything’s turning out. It’s been a long time since every project I’ve tackled has been so successful at bringing my visions to life. That’s a pretty empowering sensation. There’ll be little jobs I’ll continue to tackle over the next couple months, but I’m really enthusiastic about everything coming down the pipes. I’ve done exactly what I set out to do, and the results have been better than I had hoped, on every level. Accomplishment is a wonderful thing. Goal-reaching is even better.
Meanwhile, I’ve got a grind to get back to. One thing I’ve loved lately is catching up on all my classic movies on telly while getting decorating work done. Today’s is Scorcese’s brilliant Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore. Ellen Burstyn is sensational.
I hope your weekend is less tiring than mine, but every bit as rewarding as mine. :) And enjoy that steak and BJ, boys.
SO, IT’S A FEW DAYS LATER… and I’ve decided to clarify this posting with just who might be deserving of a steak and blowjob, and who sure as hell isn’t. Go here to read it.

Steff, so happy that everything is coming together for you including your loss of weight. You seem to be happier now than you have been in a long time. Keep it up, your doing great.

‘Steak and a Blowjob Day’?
Because sex in relationships isn’t about mutually consenting, loving sexual acts (including oral), it’s about tricking your girlfriend into sucking you off while you watch TV and eat a MANLY chunk of dead animal. Just as VDay is about forcing your man to buy you poorly-made consumer capitalist crap to ‘prove’ how much he cares.
VDay and ‘S&B Day’, enforcing the gender roles that women only put out when plied with gifts and diamonds, and that all men really want is a housewife/mother and a sex slave.
Sorry for my first comment being so negative, but to quote Shatner; ‘I just can’t get behind that!’
Hope your decorating is going well :)
Ha! We welcome dissent in this joint, as long as it’s respectful.
You make a great point. Pretty funny, too. You know, it’s funny. I’m totally torn on Steak & BJ day. On the one hand, I agree with you. On the other, I think it’s entertaining. I guess it would totally come down to the guy I was with, whether I’d think it could be fun or not.
Unfortunately, there’s probably a lot of men out there who wouldn’t see it as something amusing… as soon as a sense of “entitlement” enters the picture, it stops being a fun thing.
But I don’t think it’s about “tricking” a partner into providing sexual favours… it’s pretty blatant and honest.
If it was, however, about using trickery, then I’d be flat-out opposed. Vigilantly so.
“I guess it would totally come down to the guy I was with, whether I’d think it could be fun or not.”
I think you’ve hit the nail on the head there. If it was part of a jokey ‘hey hun, it was Chocolate Ice Cream and pussy eating day last week, now it’s steak and a blowjob day’ thang then it’d be fine, just a bit of fun. Sadly I think a lot of guys, as you pointed out, would see it as “hell yeah, I’m entitled to a blowjob, because I’m always doin’ shit like listening to her and not hittin her around so much as I used to”, in which case it is to be rigorously opposed. If necessary with baseball bats ;)
