\"I am a woman. I will love myself. I will be independent and in control. I will jump off of this diving board!\"
I try to avoid being labeled a typical woman as much as possible, but one thing has made me unwillingly slip into the dramatic, estrogen-filled world of femininity, and that is the daytime reality show, Starting Over.
The Starting Over house holds six women, all trying to accomplish goals with the help of life coaches, in order to reinvent their boring or shattered lives. After completing the necessary steps to reach these goals, each woman will graduate from the house, leaving a spot for a new headcase to enter.
Currently in the house are:
Leah: The hippie lesbian.
Susan: The one with the fucked-up mouth. Oh, yeah... she\'s also looking for her birthfather.
Amy: The red-haired hottie who\'s wanting a career; also the most normal of the six.
Hailey and Lynnell: The mother/daughter team whom we wish would finally rip each other\'s eyes out. Especially since Lynnell\'s are so creepy.
Josie: The one who \"...don\'t know who her baby daddy is.\" She straight trippin\'!
The six women are guided along their journey by two life coaches, Rana and Rhonda. Although Rana and Rhonda are there to help, at times it seems as if they are trying really hard to hold back comments such as:
\"Do you realize just how stupid you really are?\"
\"Can you just stop crying for one fucking second, you douche bag?!?\"
\"You\'re a fat beast, and there\'s no hope for you.\"
After watching Starting Over I feel fulfilled and proud to be a woman. Or, at least I feel good in knowing that my life isn\'t as demented as theirs.
