Cosmo Quiz

I failed a quiz today. I scored a zero on a Cosmo quiz about whether or not I’m “Good-Girl Hot” or “Bad-Girl Hot.” Apparently I’m a girl who’s…not. I have to say I’m pretty happy about that. At least it means I recognize what’s ridiculous about proposed gendered behaviors, especially when it comes to attracting the correct (opposite) sex. I didn’t fit into the molds cast for girls in the quiz (tease, slut, prude), I don’t have a celebrity role model, and I definitely don’t bronze before I go out. But I’m not perfect either; I still worry about the way I’m perceived sometimes (but not to the point where I would ever want to emulate Kim Kardashian). Perhaps the best thing to do is to a make a point to hold yourself accountable to standards that you feel are appropriate reflections of your personality, values, goals, etc….and avoid all Cosmo quizzes.
