OK, so I'm a militant feminist and all
But when you call yourself a “wombyn” and breast-feed your children when they are ten and twelve years old, you have gone TOO FAR.
Seriously. “Wombyn”? That’s like a bad Saturday Night Live sketch.

I like my Bond rough-and-tumble.

To All Rejected Girls on The Bachelor
Please heed the following advice:
When you are ultimately rejected, please say, “I’m sorry things didn’t work out, you’re a fantastic person and I wish you the best.” Then head straight to the limo and then you can bawl your eyes there.
DO NOT
He’s made up his mind. There’s nothing you can do at this point. Save what little pride you have left at this point and get the fuck out of there.
- Try to convince him of your “connection”
- Cry and say that you don’t understand
- Accuse him of leading you on
- Talk shit about the other girls
Oh my goodness! Last night Chelsea really needed this advice!!! Never take cheap shots at the girl he is GOING to choose. YOU’RE JUST TOO LATE AND LET IT GO! Great advice….which they should all heed.
This is going to be me this week. I am going to stock up on red bull and say many prayers and talk to the universe about passing my finals and papers I owe because I didn’t do anything productive after my mid-terms.
Genius.
How to stalk: an online guide
“If you are still relying on Google to snoop on your friends, you are behind the curve.” (WSJ) This is one trend I don’t mind missing out on. But if you are so inclined…
- ZabaSearch.com turns up public records such as criminal history and birthdates.
- Spock.com and Wink.com are “people-search engines” that specialize in digging up personal pages, such as social-networking profiles, buried deep in the Web.
- Spokeo.com is a startup that lets users see what their friends are doing on other Web sites.
- Zillow.com estimates the value of people’s homes.
- Huffington Post’s Fundrace feature tracks their campaign donations.
- Jigsaw.com lets people share details with each other from business cards they’ve collected — a sort of gray market for Rolodex data.
Japanese company now offeres employees a day off for a "heartbreak".
Oh, if only this would reach the Americas. That would be a great new world.

The Mysteries of the Suicide Tourist
I watched all seasons when it aired and own the DVDs. :-]
I just introduced a friend of mine to Buffy. I have the entire series on DVD, and I’ve been lending them out to him. He started at the beginning three weeks ago and he’s already on season six. It is so much fun to watch episodes with people who haven’t seen them before. We started watching season five together on Friday and he was totally confused by the appearance of Dawn. It was great.
One of my exes did a research paper for his masters program at Harvard on whether or not teenage girls who watch Buffy have more self-esteem and a better self image than a control group. He collected data through online surveys and most of it wasn’t really scientifically sound, but it was an interesting question, nonetheless.
Buffy is essentially a feminist show. It meant a lot to me to have a heroine to look up to who was strong, independent, and who kicked ass; but always while wearing stylish footwear. Buffy was an example of how being a feminist and being girly aren’t mutually exclusive.
I don’t watch a lot of tv, but I don’t think there are too many other teenage female characters around who are smart, strong, independent and who can think for themselves. Veronica Mars, yes. Maybe Rory Gilmore, but not consistently (although I also love Gilmore Girls).
I recently read the comic book for the eighth season of Buffy, and I came across this little piece of dialogue where Buffy says: ”This isn’t about demons at all, is it? It’s about women. It’s about power and it’s about women and you just hate those two words in the same sentence, don’t you?” I’m glad to know Buffy’s still fighting the patriarchy, even if now it’s only in comic book form.
I hate re-blogging without adding anything but
