Real Women



Miley Cyrus steps out in her bra and “bam”, she is front page news. She shakes her behind on T.V. and the country can’t stop talking about her. Enough already!  Let me introduce you to the Warrior Princess, the epitome of fierce womanhood.  Mindy Budgor, a twenty seven year old southern California girl went to Kenya, and became a warrior princess in the Maasai tribe. She was the first female to do it. This young women spent a month sleeping on leaves, practicing spear throwing, and went days without food.  She earned blisters and chased buffalo. She killed a goat and drank its blood. Fierce! At the end of training she speared a large buffalo, earning for herself warrior status among the Maasai. During her training, she did not brush her hair or teeth once, but said she never felt more beautiful. I bet she was.  She earned the right for other Maasai women to become warriors, if they wish. Well, I guess those southern California girls are fierce, fresh and fine. I stand in awe.

  1. Doing Miley's thing was easily. Drinking goats blood after killing it yourself, that is amazing. I too am awed by her strength. Thanks for sharing.

  2. Is this a true story? It's a great one. You should write it, I think, or something like it or from it. At any rate, Miley Cyrus is a foul beast. It's pitiful.

  3. Mindy Budgor is a real person. She went to Africa to do some volunteer work. When she heard the Maasai do not allow women to hunt she convinced some warriors to train her so she could prove otherwise.
