MY GARBAGE STUFF

Just a little space dedicated to this amazing rock Band. I don´t even deserve be able to do this.

After read this, you will never see shirley as you did before...(specialy the fourth one)

Shirley Manson ten commandaments of love...

1. THOU SHALL BE ANYTHING BUT A DAMN ROCK MUSICIAN:

You could say I got into music for the sex. I never harboured a burning desire to sing my heart out to be a "star". So when I was fifteen, it was a big surprise to be suddenly asked to join a rock band. The invitation was extended by the lead singer, in a desperate attempt to seduce me. Until his request, I'd considered him a complete arsehole. I loathed his New Romantic tucker boots, his lipstick, and his unmitigated rudeness. Then I heard him sing. I can still remember turning my head in shock and horror, thinking, "He has the most beautiful voice!" I quickly fell in lust, and as he was so very keen on me, I joined his band - and shortly thereafter, his bed. Sadly, during my first few months with the band I learned my lesson about rock musicians. I discovered that my mate was a little too susceptible, shall we say, to the charms of other women. Upon learning this, I threw a hairbrush at his head and put an end to the relationship. Alas, I'd become hooked on the music drug, and by now, nothing could prevent me from continuing to play with the band. Though there are exceptions, most guys in bands - especially the young ones- are unable to differentiate between real life and the fantasy world of having millions of screaming girls who want to sleep with them. Rock stars often need adoration from every one all the time. I need someone who's going to be around for me - not the whole world.

2. THOU SHALT HONOUR MY BRIGHT-COPPER FRIEND:

On the heels of the above trashing of my first true love, I must add that not only have we remained friends, but I enjoyed my first truly pleasurable sexual liaison with him. He smelled beautifully of baby powder and a hint of metal. More importantly, he was the first boy who ever made me feel good about having red hair. Now, to possess a head of red hair can at times be an inconvenience - some people find it repulsive - but I'm sure I speak for all adolescent redheads when I describe the horror of realising that your pubic hair is a vastly different colour from everybody else's. Even blondes, for God's sake are often sprouting a much more ordinary dark brown. When my aforementioned lover took me to his bed for the first time, he parted my red cotton kimono and gasped "Amazing," and I had an epiphany. Ahh, I rejoiced, somebody likes it. It took me a while, but now I can proudly say that I'm glad I don't have a big black bush!

3. THOU SHALT WEAR BOXERS - OR NOTHING AT ALL:

I love it when I pull down a boy's pants and he's got no knickers on, and I think most women feel the same. But if a man must wear something underneath his trousers, I am willing to accept a man in boxer shorts. What I cannot stand are what we in Scotland call Y-fronts. I think in America you call them briefs. If a boy wears Y-fronts, he wants to be clean, tight, and controlled. I like boys who flow easy and hang loose, because that's the way their minds work too. Plus, briefs give me the creeps because they remind me of my father (not that there's anything unsexy about my dad, mind you, but you don't want to be thinking about your father during sex). I once went out with this guy and ranted for ten minutes at him about how disgusting I thought black Y-fronts were on a boy. Then I got to his flat and, blow me, did I not pull down his trousers to reveal a pair of black Y-fronts. I stared at him in horror, hoping he'd pull them off or at least laugh, but he just lay there lounging. I said, "See you later - I'm out of here."

4. THOU SHALT HONOUR MY BODILY FLUIDS:

There's a stereotype of what we are all meant to find attractive and erotic, but I don't neatly fall into those categories. Satin lingerie, a heart-shaped tub, flowers and champagne don't turn me on. You shouldn't be scrubbed clean before you have sex. I hate boys who are frightened of pee and shit and menstrual blood. I say no to boys who want to wake up next to a fully made-up woman. I say no to boys who prefer stockings and garters to perfect nudity. Who wants a boy who won't kiss you when you've just been sick? I want a man who will let me pee in his belly button. I want a man to accept the beast in me. I don't want a man who thinks the woman of his dreams doesn't go to the toilet. One does, you know.

5. THOU SHALT NOT COVET THY NEIGHBOUR'S WIFE (WHETHER I'M OUT OF TOWN OR NOT):

Sex is easy, commitment isn't. I have to confess I was once a tad ineffective in the latter category myself. It was only following the cataclysmic moment when I learned that a friend had tested positive for HIV that I was forced to reassess my attitudes. Suddenly - call me crazy - a few hours of fun didn't seem worth dying for. Since then, as Mel Gibson once said, I've been a true believer in monogamy - and I expect the same from my partner. Besides, screwing around gets complicated. I know a lot of people who are insanely non-monogamous even though they've got a steady. They explain by saying, "Well, Frank's my boyfriend but he doesn't give good head, and I really get off brilliantly with Stewart." I say dump Frank, marry Stewart. If one lover isn't enough for you, then you ain't found the right one. Sadly, since I've been on the road non-stop, I don't even get a chance to practice monogamy. And the closest I get to infidelity is when my sound engineer uses K-Y jelly to lube up my ear monitors.
