I was just browsing the internet, and came across one of those blog tagboards on someone's site. While checking who had commented, I discovered that someone's email address was "jimsgirlfriend@randomipaddress.com" (we have changed the names to protect the identity of the culprit).
Now here's my question about that. Is this an example of a man trying to be dominant over a woman? Or is she trying to prove her devotion to him through her email address? Which is equally subservient.
The stupid part, though, will be when they break up, and she has to send out emails to everyone she knows.
"Hi, it's me. I've got a new email address so please update your records. It's now: jimsexgirlfriend@whateveripthisis.com"
I meant it to be Toby's ex-girlfriend, but with no punctutuation, it reads even worse...
I dunno, I guess I just think that people need to be themselves, rather than define themselves as someone's something or other. Or is it maybe that since I'm not anybody's something or other that I'm just bein' jealous?

Pretty repulsive. I don't go to her page anymore; it's not worth the headache.
