Alpha chicks scare me–man eaters. Here’s a list of them from popular music:
And no offense to Gaga or M.I.A.; I actually love their work–have several of their songs on my mixes. They’re geniuses in music, Gaga in fashion too, as far as I’m concerned… but I’d be scared to be around them. I recognize Madonna’s talent as an artist too, but I’m not a big fan. Around her especially, I’d wear a jock strap in fear of my balls being crushed in a vice grip which she happened to bring along just for the occasion.
Now here’s a list of beta chicks, again from popular music:
Ah, Chibi. Chibi is the lead singer of The Birthday Massacre, formerly known as Imagica but had to give up the name for copyright reasons (too bad, I really like the name Imagica, it captures more of the essence of the band). She’s got a real tough exterior, but interviews with her betray a soft mushy interior. She even appears self-conscious in some of them. And when she’s more comfortable on camera, a fun, playful side of her comes out. Oh, she can be a bitch–you can tell–but you can also tell that an imaginative little girl lives inside her (the reason, I believe, for the band’s former name), and that if you break through that tough exterior, she melts.
Brittany strikes me as a really smart girl. A witchy vixen on the outside gives way in interviews to a very open minded and contemplative thinker. She seems very logical and maybe could sink her teeth into a deep philosophical conversation. She doesn’t seem bitchy at all, very friendly, very kind hearted in fact. Very down to Earth too, this one seems.
Unlike her predecessors, I would place Sharon in the genre of heavy metal princess rather than goth vixen. Dark and seductive on a first impression, Sharon Den Adel turns out to be one of the most happy, bubbly, pleasant people you’ll find in the dark world of heavy metal goth rock. Very rare are the moments when there isn’t a smile on her face or a bounce in her walk. She’s definitely a fairy tale princess in the little girl sense but balanced with a wild cowgirl who looks like she’d relish the freedom of a motorcycle ride on the open highway with the man of her dreams.
I could really fall for a girl like Chibi, Brittany, or Sharon. But it can’t just be any old beta chick. She’s got to have that tough gothic exterior, something that doesn’t make the sweet, big-hearted girl she is inside so obvious. Why I’m attracted to this, I have no idea. I like the goth look–it’s sexy–but I guess I don’t want to be eaten alive, bitten by the vampress. I want to have my cake and eat it too. Is that too much to ask?
