Really? Are women/girls really as wedding-crazy as the world likes to pretend?
So I was watching part of the show 10 Things I Hate About You (don't judge, it's not nice and How I Met Your Mother wasn't on last night) and the younger girl, who can't drive, but is in high school, so I guess she's like 15 was talking to her friend and told her she was on her Maid of Honor shortlist. What?! Who does that? At 15? Maybe everyone else does and I'm the only girl who never sat around planning a wedding or thinking about it, not even when I was little and girls supposedly ran around wearing pillowcases as veils, if Monica from Friends can be believed. The closest I ever come to thinking about weddings is when Rachel gets all OCD about planning something or other and then I tell her that when I get engaged, I'm just going to call her and know that in about a week she will have all the plans made (bonus: I totally trust her judgement and her knowledge of me, so I wouldn't even have to give her much, if any, direction!). Win-win, for me.
