Waffles made of squares are already covered in swastikas.

The swastika is actual native to every civilization that ever developed basket weaving. It's incredibly ancient, and that it was connected to such brutality will shame us forever.

I hope that fuhered employee realizes the punishment was germane.

Even with your warning, the link made me vomit a little.

...how? Instead of assembling custom made preschool blocks (to stick with the metaphor) they went down to Taco Bell to find one that was already in circulation.

Or maybe beauty standards are held aloft not only by one segment of the population and are instead constantly recreated and reinforced through patriarchal methods of sexual control? Perhaps queer men would be more likely to accept back hair if all people did so?

I hope there was some sleep fetishism in there somewhere...

If Erin had just said "Goomba," it would have been both funny and accurate.

Um. Bowser is the main boss in Super Mario Bros.?

Not to mention the fact that spending time with his kids is probably far more valuable to him than money? Feminism convinces men of that too.

What else needs to be said?

It wouldn't invalidate the rights, no, but it would invalidate the assumption of equality. In a truly equal society, those rights would be so ingrained as to make it hard to imagine segregating them again.

I would have to say philosophically that if rights may be rolled back on the whim of the government, that's not actual equality.

Yes. The article seems to privilege one casual argument, but I think the other is more likely.

Basically it says that wealthier countries have smarter women. But I'm thinking it may be that countries with smarter, more educated, enfranchised women tend to be wealthier.

I think I'm missing something here. Isn't RDI correlated with gender equality already? I'm not sure that they have the causality correct. It may be the increased gender equality leads to greater RDI, which is what feminist have been arguing for decades. Isn't it?

Still no. I had my Canadian friends take me for "real poutine" because apparently my first (very tasty) one was too gourmet. I feel adequate in my description.

Oh no. No no no. It's canned chicken brown gravy on fries with badly made cheese. It tastes the same going down as coming up, and that taste is salt and poverty.

Have you seen what Canadians eat? Poutine? Barf.

But solving power inequality—otherwise called privilege—is a core tenant of progressive liberatory politics. If the balance of power wasn't a problem, then we would have no need of feminism etc.
