Good Morning Ladies,
I found this on a profile on my daughter's Myspace. Before you comment on her having a Myspace...believe me, it is heavily monitored. First, our computer is in a common area...second, before she opens any comments or accepts anyones invites to be her or their friend, it is opened by me and I read the other person's myspace.Plus, I do random checks when she is IM ing...she has very little room to do anything sneaky. I've read alot of her "friends" myspace' and have literally been shocked at how "slutty" these young girls are (12 and 13)...anyway, here is what I found on one of her friend's profiles and I really like it. My daughter lives by it...as she doesn't have a boyfriend as the boys are now into picking the "easy" one's and not necessarily the smart, confident girls.
Girls are like apple trees.
The best ones are at the top, but boys don't want to reach for the ones up there because they are afraid of falling & getting hurt.
Instead, they grab the rotten ones at the bottom; those ones aren't nearly as good, but they are the easiest to get.
So the apples at the top think that there is something wrong with them, but in reality, they are amazing; they just have to be patient and wait for the right guy who will take the time to get a ladder

Bravo!!!! That is really nice. I am going to pass that along to my 18 year old.
And I will comment on myspace. I think it is evil and should be shut down. It has gotten out of hand and you are sooo right. I have never seen girls so bold and with no morals in all my life.
Well I feel better, sorry for sounding mean.

Wow, I'm impressed. She's figured this out at a very young age. Good for her.

ROFL... I love it.
What a potent metaphor, as with the OP.
