A lady’s conversation circle. December 9, 2008. Your rainbow is slightly shaded brown. What is says about you: You are a deep thinking person. You appreciate the roughness of nature. You feel closer to people when you understand their imperfections. Find the colors of your rainbow at spacefem.com. Banal bad fiction. It feels so good! December 8, 2008. It is a sneaky joy reading junk – I have lots of degrees, a couple in literature, and I really should know better. Other secret pleasures have been. I wate...

When “no” is dumbed down with “why” | A lady's conversation circle
https://missjoestar.wordpress.com/2010/05/09/when-no-is-dumbed-down-with-why
A lady’s conversation circle. When “no” is dumbed down with “why”. May 9, 2010. I was reading this article in the Sunday Star Times today: http:/ www.stuff.co.nz/sunday-star-times/features/3670518/Beyond-the-call-of-duty. It’s a pretty amazing story of a dedicated cop who tracked down a serial rapist. The following article http:/ www.stuff.co.nz/sunday-star-times/features/3670516/How-Junior-Pillai-became-one-of-our-worst-serial-rapists. I worry about the way male-male sexual abuse is clearly specified in...

A lady’s conversation circle. If you want to be centred then stick a compass in your heart (actually a very sharing post with lots of lovely links). October 18, 2009. I have written so many posts in my head lately, conspicuously one linking to this http:/ lettersfromwetville.blogspot.com/2009/06/community-education-stories-and-how-to.html. Which for some reason failed to upload. I also LOVED this http:/ vimeo.com/6410278. And lastly – I can’t stop thinking about. The Children’s Book. All out of love.

About | A lady's conversation circle
https://missjoestar.wordpress.com/about
A lady’s conversation circle. I live in a little country at the bottom of the world where life is really quite idyllic. I read voraciously. I sometimes do crafty stuff but am not in that space at the moment. I am a lapsed Catholic and a lapsed vegan and a lapsed Steiner teacher. I really love ponies and smelling flowers and having true heart connections with people. I despise male feminists, dogs, rugby and all its trappings, and people with a superiority complex.

Talkin’ ’bout a revolution.. | A lady's conversation circle
https://missjoestar.wordpress.com/2012/02/01/talkin-bout-a-revolution
A lady’s conversation circle. Talkin’ ’bout a revolution. February 1, 2012. I keep wondering lately, where have all our heroines gone? I grew up carrying passionate visions of what women could achieve, and great plans for my life and career. Yet I now live in a world where there is a heavy bias towards boys’ success in schools and a focus on their expectations in life. There is no acknowledgement that we may be educating girls very well, or reward or praise for our high achieving girls. To get a copy of.

All out of love | A lady's conversation circle
https://missjoestar.wordpress.com/2009/06/04/all-out-of-love
A lady’s conversation circle. All out of love. June 4, 2009. And maybe the initial crush is over. It is so demanding! It makes me tired and grumpy sometimes. It’s hard. It never listens when I have a problem and need to talk. I feel like I’ll never meet its unrealistic standards. One Response to “All out of love”. June 5, 2009 at 6:37 am. But but but missjoestar, you forgot about Highland dancing! What about all of the clever things you keep doing year after year? Leave a Reply Cancel reply. If you want ...

More adventures, less boys. | A lady's conversation circle
https://missjoestar.wordpress.com/2010/03/11/more-adventures-less-boys
A lady’s conversation circle. More adventures, less boys. March 11, 2010. I grew up loving the ‘adventure’ books by Willard Price. Partly because I read absolutely everything with no regard for quality, and also because, just as I inherited school stories from my Mother, Trixie Belden’s from my sister and antiquated encyclopedias from my Father; I hoarded and gloated over my brother’s ‘boy’ books too. I promise to read it. 6 Responses to “More adventures, less boys.”. March 11, 2010 at 7:34 am. I love it...

Some things I learned from playing sport | A lady's conversation circle
https://missjoestar.wordpress.com/2009/11/10/some-things-i-learned-from-playing-sport
A lady’s conversation circle. Some things I learned from playing sport. November 10, 2009. I have always mercilessly mocked jocks who love their sport, sneered over the cover of my literary novel at their enthusiasm for the game, and despised fan culture with its branded merchandise and passionate devotion to the team. I see stickers on my league-mate’s helmets that say “Roller Derby saved my soul”, but I fear that derby has damned me to hell for all eternity. I now fetishise derby paraphernalia, get jit...
