Ask Me No Questions & I'll Tell No Lies....

This is gacked from half my flist.

The right side of my mouth is still one of the low levels of hell (but luckily, I was actually able to eat most of lunch today!) So distract me.

Ask me something. Anything.

Do you consider yourself a feminist?
If yes, why? If no, why?

OF COURSE! *flabergasted and appalled that this even needs to be a question in our society*

Being a feminist means that you think that women deserve equal rights with men, and I can't think of any women in our society, even those you say they aren't feminists, who actually do, 'you know, I don't want to be paid as much as a man' or 'I spend more on a car' or 'my value as a human being is less than that of a man' or 'wehter my reproductive organs are on the inside or outside should determine my jobs.'

It pisses me off beyond belief that feminist has become a dirty word in are culture, and that people are thinking the women's moment is done and finished, because it's not. I can list so many instinces of institudalized sexism in our culture. However, I'll just leave with with:

HELL YES, I'M A FEMINIST!

because otherwise my blood pressure is going to get really high.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! I thought so. *full of happy happy joy joy*
I've been diving into a lot of feminist sites lately, so the subject's been on my mind, especially regarding fandom.

I really need to do some poking around Girl Wonder.

The most recent post- here (http://girl-wonder.org/girlsreadcomics/?p=82) -is a good one. I dragged brother to the moniter a while back and read several aloud to him, mostly the art comparison articles.

I read that one. I can't tell if I'm more furious or sad.
