Carrie Underwood fucked up her dude's truck. I know he deserved it, but I'm pretty sure that's still a misdemeanor most places.

i thought about that but it's not like she actually did any of the stuff she sings about in that song or even wrote it, she was just being a well-behaved woman who sang what the producers gave her to sing

I hate the quote "Well-behaved women rarely make history" because I see women who have that on a bumper sticker as justification for cutting people off in traffic or Luna posting to make herself feel better for conning people out of thousands of dollars.

What are the standards for misbehavior that would disqualify a history-making woman? Would the same behavior disqualify a man from being considered "well-behaved"?
― Aimless, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 21:16 (twelve years ago)
IMO, many men that made history weren't very well-behaved either.

I don't know what I was thinking here. If she was playing around a well, she probably was not well-behaved.
― Immediate Follower (NA), Friday, 8 May 2015 20:56 (ten years ago)
maybe her mother asked her to go to the well and draw some water but she was very literal-minded so she dutifully took her pencil and sketchbook and was peeping timidly over the edge when she slipped and lost her balance.
― estela, Friday, 8 May 2015 21:09 (ten years ago)
Did it even occur to you that that would be equally mitigating without the "drawing" pun?
― italosVEVO (wins), Friday, 8 May 2015 21:16 (ten years ago)
it did, for even the maligned playing around a well business falls within the broad range of possible well-behaviours.

"After listening to her for so long, I could tell her moods," a detective on the scene recalled. "At one point she was singing. At another point, when a jackhammer started up, she didn't say any words but used kind of a huffy little voice. You could tell it was an angry voice."
ungrateful little viper, grumbling at her rescuers like that. Emily Post doesn't dictate the protocol for toddlers stuck in wells, but I feel like a simple 'thank you for saving my life' would suffice.
