Fifty Shades Fooled

Unsurprisingly, I have been indulging in the new “it” book series, Fifty Shades. Several friends and I have been reading and discussing these books. Through these discussions, I have come to two conclusions. 1. This is a damn good read. 2. This series, based on the 2/3 books I’ve finished, is targeted to the type of woman I’d like to call “The Healer”. 


“The Healer” is the woman who sees a man not for what he is, but for the potential he has to be a better him. She wants to help him see this potential like she sees it and wants to be that person to change him into that better guy. 


And I’m not here to judge those types of women, hell I’ve foolishly been that person before; trying to turn a pauper into a prince.  Trying to change a man.  I‘m here to throw out a little advice…. NOT GON’ HAPPEN! *NewNew Voice* 


I think this series is definitely a great read, but could possibly give hope to those women that think they can change a man. A man is not going to change until he is ready. Do not fall for the foolishness that E. L. James is serving you. He is not going to miraculously change overnight. You can motivate him, try to talk to get to the root of the issues, fight with him, but none of that is going to work in the real world unless he, himself, is ready to become a better man.


All opinion everything. What do you think?
