A passionate redhead who often contradicts herself and asks too many questions. Prone to lengthy rants with untold amounts of dramatic hand-waving. It has often been said that my voice is too loud. That I talk too much. That I swear too much. I like to imagine these traits are charming and endearing. Perhaps not. Not Outer Space, Out of Space. June 10, 2013. To be given less space to breathe, to think, to share, is to be given the message that you shouldn’t be there. It is, in fact, to be censored. To oc...

Monthly Archives: December 2011. Something beginning with ‘P’. December 28, 2011. So I guess we knew this day would come – I just thought I could hold out a little bit longer. I will wake up in the middle of the night just to rant about how much I hate this thing. I will question my feelings towards a person if they cannot see the reasons for my opposition towards this thing. And sometimes, when I really, really hate a thing I can physically feel my blood boiling. Anyway you get the picture. Long, artifi...

Monthly Archives: August 2012. The Winner Takes It All? August 1, 2012. Recently, I’ve been thinking about the concept of winning. With the Olympics on at the moment, I’m sure it’s something dominating the minds of many. Winning and indeed losing are ideas instilled in us from a very young age, competition and competitive activities are considered to be educational; preparing young people for their future and the real world . Does success without failure mean nothing? Can we all be winners? Or must we co...

Monthly Archives: February 2013. It’s only a story. February 10, 2013. But the worlds created for us were not as enchanted as we believed as children, for while they taught us how to dream, they taught us what to dream about. We were not seeing a new, alternate reality we were seeing our own reality reflected back at us but with glitter, window-dressing. With supporting female leads? Could be the chosen one, that she. Could have adventures, that she could accomplish all sorts of things without a man bein...

Ode to the ‘Lad’ ( a silly post before bedtime). March 22, 2012. Make only serves as further scientific evidence that his understanding of basic humanist principles is non-existent. Further research on the Lad has predominantly been halted due to universal hope that if we just stop paying them attention they might just get bored of posting ridiculously sexist comments on the internet and randomly become extinct like the dinosaurs.

The Winner Takes It All? August 1, 2012. Recently, I’ve been thinking about the concept of winning. With the Olympics on at the moment, I’m sure it’s something dominating the minds of many. Winning and indeed losing are ideas instilled in us from a very young age, competition and competitive activities are considered to be educational; preparing young people for their future and the real world . Should we continue perpetuating the idea that if you are not a winner you must, by default, be a loser? For ex...

https://argufemmetative.wordpress.com/2013/01/11/i-want-you-to-want-me
I want you to want me. January 11, 2013. We all want to be desired. We all want to be told that we are sexy, beautiful, sexually stimulating we want to know that we turn people on. However, what seems like desire at first can often begin to feel a lot more like objectification. So how do we define the difference between them? Where is the line, and at which point is it crossed? What do we say when we want to own something? They are both characterised by ‘I want.’. Can we separate them? I might say ‘I wan...

Monthly Archives: February 2012. Who do you think you are? February 22, 2012. So I haven’t written in here in a while. I hear you cry. ‘Our lives have been meaningless without links to your extreme and often contradictory musings posted on our facebook walls’. The thing is: it’s not for lack of things to write about, but rather the arrival of the niggling feeling that I am somehow running around in circles. And then: why not write about weight issues and comfort eating? Because of this, it is so difficul...
