Society Celebrates Narcissism Again

I don't want to give him any publicity, but I have to vent. Not sure if you have heard of or read Tucker Max's book, "I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell," but it makes me sick that it's been made into a major motion picture movie.

The author degrades and debases women and friends, acknowledging that he's a full-blown narcissist. Somehow, the masses have been entertained by all of this and he has fans lined up down the street to greet him (including WOMEN)!

It is a total celebration of narcissism, which makes my stomach turn. Why are people impressed by this man! Men want to be him and women want to sleep with him?! They flock to him.

I have a new found respect for Justin Timberlake. Recently he was expected to release a fragrance using his name. He declined by saying "there's some level of narcissism you have to put in check."

Wow, if I didn't have an opinion on him before, I am now in love with this guy for setting a good example. Rarely do you see celebrities take this kind of stance. Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag are the norm lately.

Thank you Justin for giving us hope that there are still men out there not yet destroyed by our culture's incessant narcissism. You rock!!!!!

Always Remember Why The Narcissist Chose Us

I want to bump up this post by Mariline as I believe it is so important we remember why the narcissist chose us. Too often, we are made to feel we should have known better or we were "duped" easily by these narcissistic con-men.

I want us all to remember that they targeted us because we are caring, compassionate, intelligent, successful and independent women. We are not weak and naive as some would like to suggest.

Narcissists choose us because they know they can take a lot from us and gain tremendously by being in a relationship with us. These men want to be taken care of and choose only the best and the brightest to take care of them. For this, we should never feel ashamed. Angry, sure, but never ashamed.
