Temptation Box

I started reading this book, Odd Girl Out by Rachel Simmons and it's really good! At first, I thought this book is boring because of its very long introduction but  I realized I could relate myself into this. The author actually talked about "the girl's aggression" and their other side which elders can't see through their actions. Basically, it talks about the experiences of high school girls,most of them are bullied by their schoolmates. Rachel went to different schools in the country just to interview some girls and ask how they feel whenever some of their classmates passing notes in their back and laughing. Of course, it is natural for us -as girls to think that somebody might talked about us, that's why we are afraid to be alone, we always wanted to be with friends so we don't feel that we're out of place. Unlike boys, they could hurt someone physically but for girls, they could hurt someone by just one look. To the perpetrator, the silent treatment can be quick, easy path around a direct confrontation.  In a social world where anger is not spoken, reading body language becomes an important way for girls to know each others' feelings. that's what Rachel wrote on the book. Mean looks and silent treatment are the ultimate undercover aggression.

So I really, really recommend this book. Every girls might relate their experiences in this book because the author exposed the hidden aggression of girls and understand the importance of relationships to women. Actually, I viewed myself 4 years ago, way back in high school, I was so devastated -well, I don't wanna talk about it much! But yeah, I still have to read the other half of this book. I'll update about it once I've finish it!
