The Majority Of This Post Is Stolen Whole-Cloth From Octopedingenue

Except this, which is another example of why it literally makes me see red when I hear girls say they aren't feminists. Like, what, you want to to be paid 3/4 or less of what a man is for the same amount of work while simultaneously spitting on everything you mother did to get you where you are now? Get the hell out of my gender. (And yes, I DO understand some of the stereotypes that are attached to the word 'feminist' but what it actually means is that you think men and women are equal, and disassociating yourself from that is a HUGE step backward, imho.)

On a happier note, check out the translation of the book Rue drops in episode 5 of Princess Tutu. (Translation is in the comments.) Now, I wibble a lot over Rue, but this just makes me wibble harder.

Also, this is totally a Fakir song:

And I just want to add, because I'm afraid that this comes off more... instructive? than I want it to, that this is all only my personal reasons for referring to myself this way.


Don't worry, I totally get it.

Bleah. I've seen enough girls do that, especially in a "the boys like me because I'm not one of those feminists" way, that I can understand the frustration. Ladies, respecting yourselves should not be that stigmatic.

Yes! God! That! It makes me crazy! It's like, you can be a feminist and a.) like boys and b.) shave your legs. Trust me on this; I know whereof I speak.
