I maybe get some of the left-brain/analytic stuff as because I have Asperger's syndrome (not the Internet-kind, the extensive diagnostic tests -requiring kind). There is quite a bit of human interaction that I didn't really grasp for a very long time, I was only mimicking those around me in a way that would most…

How dare you! I wore a pair of wool culottes I got in the mail yesterday even though it was too warm because they are the so awesome. I can't say I'm surprised, that is typical from someone without culottes, "ill-clad and ill-equipped", and just jelli.

I'd guess it depends on where you put them in the first place.

I am but a lowly Bachelor. So far my academic education has been free (unlike my meds, or elementary school because international schools need to take extra precautions to deal with all the rich kids), but I still decided to major in mathematics despite having almost as many credits in philosophy, mainly because next…

She does not do much work to promote feminism, more often against it. She may call herself that, but we can demand acts that she can defend as feminist. Otherwise it can be said she is not very feminist and not A Feminist at all.

Your comment on having to go to work is very fitting. The Wikipedia article on the Feminine Mystique begins:

It's good that all those hours I've spent studying analytical philosophy can be put to some use.

How about we retire the expression "bad feminist"? I mean everyone does things that go against feminism, not matter how you interpret the word, because to err is human, and social structures etc. being what they are.

I've posted a link to this before on Gawker to this translation of an essay by a woman of Palestinian decent (which led to an someone calling me a faggot(?) and told to go back to Sweden(?), because I should not be mentioning these issues in an international forum lest any foreigner might think Finland is no less…

I wasn't accusing you of antisemitism, and Birthrigth is a reeeally questionable program, it's just that I have more Jewish heritage (even though this was for a long time considered shameful) than most people where I live right now, and some people here view Jews as some mythical creatures from online conspiracy…

It's kind of ironic because I have to take people to task for their antisemitism much more often then I should have to because some people get their information mainly from certain YouTube channels (I have seriously had to inform the girlfriend of a friend that the Protocols Of The Elders Of Zion is not an authentic…

Tolerating stupid or unconventional names are one thing, but ignorance regarding foreign names is a another, liken when a writer thinks of Knut the polar bear as the closest almost-namesake instead of the Nobel Prize Winning author Knut Hamsun for example.

I'm not informed enough to align myself with either side, but considering the fact that a notable Jewish feminist like Judith Butler supports an participates in an academic boycott of Israel, as well as the likes of Stephen Hawking, maybe it's something worth bringing up.

Old post, but still. The Veture Bros. does have a bit of a problem with their portrayal of women, but in this case the writers were more familiar with radical feminism than Tracy. Ugh. You don't have to agree with this analysis but:

I think there's a Kanye West joke in there as well.

They have succeeded in making their website and clothes appear as dowdy as possible, here are some of their clothes on actual people:

I was wondering, if you guys would be interested if I wrote a post about the place check out first before resorting to buying stuff from American Apparel? It is a Finnish owned family business, they are one of the few clothing manufacturers left that haven't moved to countries with less humane labor laws, they don't…

Are all short haircuts Miley-ish? I have had short hair or a while and I've been surprised how big a deal it is for a young woman to have short hair. I just wanted something easy to take care of, but it became almost some kind of political statement.

I couldn't disagree more... he already did the Teen Mom thing, then this (in any shape or form)? I don't need to feel any morally conflicted about my porn habit.
