Jolie Folds to Social Mores

brad-and-angie.jpgEven one of the perceived "most powerful women in the world" has succumbed to the extraordinary double standards placed on females, mainly Madonna or Whore (nope, not the 50 year old Channel chanteuse). I'm asking, where is the Angelina of yore? The bad-ass, the unapologetic man-eater, the vile of blood wearing bitch? She took the heat and wore the home-wrecker crown when former golden couple, Brad & Jen, broke up. But even she couldn't take the  pressure - the never ending disapproval of society has crumpled even the mighty. I'm not sure why Brad continues to get off scot-free. He was the one who was married. I'm sure Angie "put an offer on the table", but it's Brad who broke his vows. Jolie was branded the whore and left with one option if she wanted to save her reputation - and ultimately her career. Even a fabulous actress has to appeal to public sensibilities on some level and most women don't dig an alpha female who takes a married man. Subsequently we've seen the lady workin' overtime to become a madonna, a saint, a mother. And being Angelina, she's gone overboard to prove her point!
