But the Col's starting sentence is JUST A BIT problematic. Yeah, I totally clicked on this article because I was enraged, then read what Col. Lynette said in totality. I think the Col. is asking to have realistic images in army advertising. Absolutely no need to open with that bullshit sentence though, because it…

My autofills:

I've been campaigning against those blasted fedoras for years. I am glad it has finally caught on.

LOL, I know that feeling I WANT IN.

Yeah, for my privileged white self who was not a gender studies major, understanding feminism as a whole is a process, so I am glad that Miley has started that process. You start out by being all "equality, I want that" and then you educate yourself overtime and delve into womanism etc. I am not mad at Miley for…

PEOPLE! The problem is that she didn't see it or wasn't thinking about it. For fucks sake. The problem is that pop artists are so fucking unaware and/or not in control of their own products that the product might end up being the antithesis of the very statement. The problem is that people are so fucking clouded about…

The problem, IMO, is that in the video it is not clear whether they are partaking in the satire, or if they are the butt of the joke. Turns out, neither did the Lily.

Exactly, you said what I wanted to say so very eloquently. Additionally, I felt that this was more reminiscent of older hip hop videos, say Puff Daddy circa 2000. Which makes the mental digestion of this that much more complicated. Its just...confusing.

I think this is a great point. I can't really grasp my mind around how Jez hasn't really figured this out yet. For instance with the Miley thing...I was so excited to see commentary and when it came out on here and was not about the appropriation, at first, I was totes stunned. Same goes for this. I think Lily is…

So true. My goal is to just openly communicate as much as possible. You are so right; how would I keep her from Barbie? But I can always tell her "Barbie's body shape is not representative of the average woman".

See my mom barely talked to me about anything. She didn't talk to me about herself, she didn't talk to me about me. She sort of was just present for everything but we couldn't really talk about anything because, well, sorry for the sob story, but my Dads an alcoholic so we just couldn't discuss anything really…

Reported. Get to it if you haven't yet!

I must be in a bad mood because this makes me mad sort of. Like, yes, please advertise to us stupid women some more about how we are children that need to grow up. How about making one for men too then? Yet again the responsibility to be "level headed" falls on the female gender while the men can dream and do whatever…

I agree with you. I love pink, I love how pink looks on me and my daughter. However there are representations of princesses that are quite problematic for young girls. Actually I could just venture out and say dolls instead of princesses. For instance, Barbie. I don't think I will be letting my daughter play with…

Ahhhh whyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!

I want to use this more (not to say that it can't be used against me sometimes). That's great, everyone isn't you.

HAHAHA, thank you thank you. Its so comical that he is sleeping next to his precious hat.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL

It's the perfect reminder to people that you aren't just born with your ideas, you know? We are all connected. Okay, that sounded really hippy dippy, but you get the idea.

Thanks! Ain't no party like a Ginsburg party because a Ginsburg party is fucking smart. Sidebar: "we don't live in a vacuum" is my favorite thing to say.
