I totally missed this boat. Conferences for me have been pajama parties with my female academic friends. Well, pajama party makes it sound too fun. We drink a lot of wine and bitch about all things that suck about academia. But we feel better because at least we know we're not alone. And it's chance to see people…

aaaaaaaand there it is, you have Godwin's Law-ed yourself in your own article. I'm not saying there is no way to relate these topics, but this is shoddy, bad writing. Its not even writing; all you've done is to shoehorn two images in at the end as if TA-DA! I've proved dolls = racism because book! See! See! .... This…
