Staten Island Girl

Ahh the "staten island girl" what most describe as a rich, trashy, overly-make-up'ed, tight-pants wearing, coach bag carrying girl with an obnoxiouss accent(etc)

I will not claim that this breed of miserable-ness does not exist on this island (because sadly it does) i would like to point out that there are girls, mostly residing on the North Shore, that detest this stereotype.

In fact, there are some of us that:

-have no accent at all(baffling i know)
-actually left the island for college & whatnot
-hate wearing too much make-up
-refuse to buy coach bags (or only buy the leather ones without the C insignia so no one knows)
-own many pairs of sweatpants and non-matching hoodies that do not contain an ounce of velour, andd wear them out in public
-do not wear high heels to "the mall"
-work and own their own bank accounts that contain their hard-earned cash
**-make fun of boys with the blow out
***-get really pissed off at the girls that do NOT make fun of boys with the blow-out because that just makes them think its okay, and it not
-enjoy getting their real nails painted, and actually kno what their real nails look like without acryllics
-do not have lifetime memberships to the tanning loft, body tan, hollywood tans etc.
-cringe when people ask where their from (because that inevitably is followed with a joke about either coffee, the dump, traffic, or just laughter)
-have goals other than marrying someone rich and moving to a nice gaudy house in todt hill and/or annadale
-refused to watch true life: i'm a staten island girl out of sheer embarrassment OR watched it and just felt embarrassed for the girls on the show...

you get the idea.
We are few but we do exist.

okay in live in staten island,and get this
im black! yes there are black people and i dont live on the north shore or in projects,omg right!..ugh
i dont talk with a accent,but i never got why its such a big deal that people here do
i have a northface and uggs but so what who doesnt these days,and i lived here my whole life and i dont really se any "orange" people walking around and im not saying theres not any sluts here because belive me there is but come on there is gonna be sluts anywhere you go.

A girl from Staten Island. If the specimen is found around the South Shore of the island she is likely to have bad tans, gaudy style and that signature accent. A North Shore Staten Island Girl may not exhibit all these properties, but don't be fooled she is still a Staten Island Girl. Though not likely to have a fake tan and rather than gaudy style, has mad style, her accent still possesses a unique twang. For all the good and bad that can be said about these girls, don't fuck with one if you don't want your ass handed to you. They smoke mad blunts. Staten Island Girls are known to be fearless with reckless abandon when confronted negatively or just having to lay shit down. Treat one right and she will stick by you through thick and thin, cause that's the way her daddy raised her- or maybe not, just don't fuck with them, you'll get your ass handed to you.

I would like to say that all Staten Island girls are not the same. I am not like the stereotypes. Yes, I was born on Staten Island. And yes I own a couple coach bags. And a Northface. But why is that a bad thing. Coach is very popular. So is The North Face brand. So why is liking these things so stereotypical. If I went to Connecticut and was wearing my Coach bag and my Northface and straightened my hair.. would everyone whisper to eachother.. oh, i think she is one of those staten island girls. I don't think so. So why is it so important to try and put us down. Because I take pride in what I look like I got to be called trashy. How does that make sense. But on the other hand. If I didn't straighten my hair.. and had an ugly bag from Walmart. And no jacket. You people with all your negative opinions would still have something to say. right... you would probably say hey look at this dirtbag.. where is she from.. lets talk shit about her because she is not the same as all the other girls we talk shit about.. I don't get it. Are you mad because when you were 12 the pretty girls wouldn't talk to you??
You want to know what sucks.. I am a girl, living on Staten Island.. and because of all this trash talk. I can't be proud of where I come from. I never went tanning a day in my life. And I am 24. I have friends from both the north shore and the south. I don't pretend to be something I'm not. And I am Italian. But I don't think I can make "One phone call" and think your just going to disappear. I hate drama. Save that shit for tv. I cant stand the "OMG no way.. you bitch, you stole my bf." If he wants you, he was never good enough for me.. so you can have him. Now both of you leave me alone, I don't care!! And Im not rich.. I work for everything I have.. and I have a Maxima, Not an Altima..I don't drive like everyone else.. I drive better. I just think all this stuff is bullshit. Staten Island is boring. But its the suburbs. It's supposed to be boring. And I would love to move .. but I don't want to live in Jersey. So I'm just stuck here. I guess.
