Indian Summers is so good! Cancelled after two seasons though. :(

In Australia, male strip shows (at parties) are 15-20mins and are comedy routines more than anything. The performers are paid around $200-$300 per show. Female shows are 15-30mins depending on explicitness, and they're paid $250-$450. Some clients add tips on top, just because.

Clem Ford is indeed a most excellent feminist writer who is very well known here in Australia. It's pretty awesome to see her commenting here!

I was a freaky little kid (and I still get a raised heartbeat whenever the…

'Since when is it offensive to refer to a female as a "female?" It's better than "bitch," "whore," or "hey you."'

None of us looked alike and few of us had common cultural stuff going on at home, aside from our religion (and only a couple of the families were seriously…

Erm, but Taylor Swift is like, proper tall. She just is. Did you see her in New Girl? Taller than all the guys, MUCH taller than Cece, and she made Zooey look like a dwarf. I reckon she's at least 5'9".
