There have been marches here, and I participated in one, and I attended a session of our state legislature to protest legislation, and I’m not even a teacher yet. But I’m afraid to bring up the word “union” down here (in the American South), whereas I think it’s the next logical step. That’s why I think the marches…

I live in one of the lowest performing, non-union states in the country. But you’re saying that you haven’t had a raise in 10 years but still get paid better than teachers in my state do? Is that true? This is a third career for me, so I’m older, and I’ve been in unions before and would really try to unionize here, I…

I don’t understand why teachers don’t join unions. I should be getting my teaching license this summer. I live in a right to work state, but damn sure I’m going to call up the UAW or some such union and talk about how to go about unionizing teachers. My state treats teachers like crap, but what if our legislature had…

admin assistants aren’t den mothers or maids either, not of that crap is on an administrative assistant’s job description either

• This is a ridiculous article:

I wanted to get a makeover so I went to the store to make an appointment. I told them that I'd like someone who worked with older ladies, but they asked if I was interested in skin care or makeup and directed me towards their makeup person, which was cool since they seemed to know what they were doing, obvs. Because I…

I went to Burlington Coat Factory today and found a bunch of cute tanks or shells (sleeveless tops made of synthetic material) by Calvin Klein and another designer for $15-$20 which I would have bought if I hadn't just bought some at Stein Mart. I'm just not sure if the designer labels are knockoffs or not at…

Companies that claim to be like families are the worst. This means they expect YOU to be like a member of the family who puts 24/7 into the family business, buys supplies and food for the "family" coffee room, comes in on the weekends like the rest of the family, etc. Family-like businesses take it very personally if…

I hate her so much. Just needed to get that off my chest.

When I got married I had a few Scheana moments, you're taught to believe that it's supposed to be the best day of your whole life, and a perfect day, and even if you're too smart and cynical to believe the hype, part of you does want the day to go off without a hitch. And that wedding planner picking up paper plates…

where did you get the hyperbole t-shirt?

I love my plus-size DKNY Soho jeans from Macy's, also Macy's "inc." brand plus-size jeans are soft and comfy. Also I bought some great Coldwater Creek jeans on sale, and even though they went out of business you can probably find them at a discount store somewhere.

well maybe not the lobster nipple claws one

For more edgy feminist comedy check out (not sponsored), I love:

The history of violence by men in fraternities against the extraordinary women in the greatest universities in our country is yet another way that men can subdue us and pass the torch of the power and privilege possessed by their families (who own the corporations and run our government) along to the next generation,…

I've read that there are different sites where you can access the PB archives, because up until I read about the archives, I thought the same thing.

Feminists ARE the most sexiest people I know. Good comment, AltF4.

My daughter buys the Lululemon clothes and has the bag and everything, she loves the legging things you're supposed to workout in and wears them to school as leggings, which I guess is O.K. because she's a junior in HIGH SCHOOL.

I like that I could, or one could who had more money than me, buy one of these startling pieces and put together a total look with stuff in one's closet and also create a bunch of different looks. I want one of the jumpers, or whatever the kids are calling them today, or the dresses. Or the smocky things.

Yeah but you call your kids littleponies, I mean I assume they're your kids, so I can't take anything you say seriously. Ever.
