I used to travel for work to Moscow and would have to stay there for weeks at a time, and the shower curtain thing is typical, even at luxury hotels. However, what you also need to consider is that they do not - NOT - have a concept of "value" - what things are worth. They have a very naïve idea that "it's worth…
You don't hand the Olympics to anyone. You sell them.
Just ask Ukrainians about Dangerous Russian Face Water.
agreed. I fell as hard out of them as I once fell in with them. the girls on my gift list will continue to get fun brain-tickling stuff from the Discovery store and Imaginarium, but they won't be getting Goldieblox from Aunt Biscuit.
After a steady stream of these images in my inet world, I am so happy to read an article that is so pointedly correct in why this video is barftastic. It's way too many shades of drunken high school/college girls "making out" with their female friends in public, all to garner attention from the boys.
I wish I could root for GoldieBox, but their behavior after they stole "Girls" from the Beastie Boys was completely atrocious.
A black circle skirt, and a button up white top. Who cares?
Love your post!! One thing I've noticed about young women that confusing the hell outta me is the confusion about what is and what isn't exactly empowering. Why is that some women feel invincible and empowering because they can supposedly seduce any man around...yet don't find it empowering to challenge the status quo…
I had no problem with her outfit, until he entered the picture and I was like: "wtf is that? Once again male in full outfit, female with an almost naked ass, on the same stage"? That really sucks.
That line is the reason I didn't listen to that song again after the first time I downloaded the album. And I kept waiting for people to pipe up but all I heard was, oh well it wasn't her line. But that can't be said at the Grammy's... she did nothing to take the line out, and she mouthed parts of it herself!!! Ugh. I…
Seriously. How does that not read as fucked up to more people? You're gonna take your famous, black, singer wife with the great legs on stage and talk to her like Ike Turner? You're THE Black celebrity power couple next to The President and the First Lady (like really, you sit next to them at events) and THAT is the…
It is really, really frustrating that we aren't talking more about this Ike Turner bullshit. I want to love Bey and all but what the fuck is up with that line? How can we just ignore it?
Because that's the way the world works, damnit. Now stop complaining and go walk outside in your underwear like a good little girl. And tonight, when your husband/boyfriend/casual sex acquaintance arrives at your house, be sure to greet him in next to nothing, and remain that way for the entire evening for his…
These kinds of lyrics are why I don't respect Jay Z as a person, and although I 'like' Beyonce, I don't respect her much either. How is someone a proud, self-described feminist but their iconic husband comes on the stage to tell the world he's Ike... ? Seriously. It's disturbing how we are letting them get away with…
So no one cares about the "Ike...eat the cake" line anymore?
How come he gets to wear a suit, and she only gets to wear her underwear?
Maybe I'm just feeling cynical this morning, but to me this reads like an attempt to keep cashing in on women's sexual insecurities now that we're at the point of empowering women to pleasure themselves (well, starting to, anyway). Like, "oh, anyone can come, but can you FOURTH LEVEL POWERSLAM ULTRA PLEASUREDOME…
