Feminism/Popular Culture
Thursday, November 13, 2014. She Don't Know She's Beautiful". One of the more insidious double binds that women live with is the idea that we must be beautiful but we must not be aware of it in any way. If we are aware of our beauty, we are conceited, self-absorbed, or vain. One Direction's song "What Makes You Beautiful" is a perfect example of this double bind. Another example from my childhood is "She Don't Know She's Beautiful" by Adam Harvey. Links to this post. Thursday, May 29, 2014. I'm goin' dow...

a feminist rhymes-with-witch | Nobody ever changed the world by sitting pretty.
Nobody ever changed the world by sitting pretty. Dear meghan trainor, let’s talk about unfair ideals of masculinity and relationships. Posted in gender roles and beauty ideals. The song is catchy enough, hiding behind a wonderful beat and perfect pop vocals, but the lyrics automatically set me off. Uhm, excuse me? First off, the song completely frames human sexuality in a male context, as if women should never (gasp! Men don’t have feelings! The song also tips into borderline-abusive relationship zone, a...

A Feminist Speaks
I Share Because I Care. Tuesday, June 12, 2012. Stop Calling It a Lifestyle. May 11, 2012. The woman I have loved for as little as two years and as long as a lifetime gave me a diamond ring and asked me to marry her. What should have been one of the happiest moments of my life surprised and touched me—but mostly left me with a host of unanswered questions. Such as, what did all this mean? Now that I wore a sparkly antique (circa 1930s) diamond ring on my left hand ring finger—was I engaged? Did you know ...

a feminist sub | Because they're obviously not mutually exclusive.
Because they're obviously not mutually exclusive. Feminism and BDSM Resources. I called him “daddy”. I had confessed to the Gentleman Sadist, weeks earlier, that I was turned on by the idea of calling a partner “daddy.” I did it in a sideways, almost passive way – I didn’t call him “daddy,” or ask if I could. I just let it slip that calling a generic man “daddy” is something I fantasize about sometimes. 8220;What were you thinking about? 8221; I asked. Hey little girl, is your daddy home? And it does mak...

Specifically, we’ve asked whether women can become equal to men and whether women would really want to be equal (what WOULD this equality look like? Marx wrote this famous article in response to Bruno Bauer’s. Do the Jews demand the same status as Christian subjects of the state? In that case they recognize that the Christi...

One Little Voice
January 18, 2013. Are there people in the world who have said and done ridiculous things in the name of feminism? In my opinion, the word feminism is hated because it contains the first three letters of the word female … and an organisation that stands for the rights of women clearly offends some people, without even knowing what feminism is people are offended because they assume that the mere usage of the letters FEM discriminates against males. This, once again is ridiculous logic! Feminists do not di...
