		<description>I live in the same town as those folks. Shiat! I'm tempted to make a poster w/ that woman's photo that says, "Do you know this woman? If so, please bring her this flyer and ask her to visit blog.iblamethepatriarchy.com . Now!"  Picture it plastered all over town. Sweet.

I agree with Edith... the woman pictured looks like pretty much every blonde college girl I know. And I teach at two universities. Hmm. I'd love to forward this thread to all my WS students and make them respond to it as part of their take-home exam. "#3: After reading 'Intervention' at _I Blame The Patriarchy_, explain why, from a radical feminist perspective, the situation of the woman pictured calls for an intervention. Use at least 5 radical feminist readings from our textbook to support your argument. (20 points)"

Finally, I want to say that I've been reading your blog for a while and just adore you, Twisty. I've never before posted here, tho. The link's hometown connection scariness finally got me to delurk and register. Yay.</description>

		<description>Yes, like two or three.  Enough so that the other members of my psych class really, like, really want to EXPLORE that.  And ask me questions like, "What do you think of Ellen, Edith?"  And I say things helpfully like, "Well, I think it's EXCELLENT that two-syllable female 'E' names are getting play on the teevee!  Power to the non-Elizabeth-based 'E' name!"

Of course, then again, in this same class I got into an argument (with lots of screaming, not limited to my side) about the existence of the glass ceiling with my professor -- namely, that it exists, and to think it doesn't exist is, well, indicative of the inappropriateness of trying to teach of women's studies course where things like "glass ceilings" might come up once or twice, but hey, I'm just a crazy dyke feminist, so everything I say is crap.

If you think THAT'S bad, oh man, I gots way scarier stories.  Community college and women's studies is not the world's perfect civil union.  I guess it's not helped that I live in the self-proclaimed "porn capital of the world," but, you know.</description>

		<description>[...] Gut, man ist ein bisschen blöd, wenn man eine Wette eingeht: &#8220;Wenn Du es nicht schaffst, eine Website zu erstellen und 2 Mio Hits zu generieren, gibst Du zu, ein Idiot zu sein, wenn Du es schaffst, machen wir einen Dreier&#8221;, wenn man nicht auf Dreier steht. Dennoch kann ich daran nichts Frauenverachtendes finden, wenn denn die Story wahr ist, ganz anders andere Feministinnen (via). Ausserdem endlich mal interessant, wenigstens grobe Zahlen zu haben, wenn sie denn stimmen, wie blogs wirken. Für die ersten Tausend Hits brauchte er zwei Wochen, an dem Tag, als sie Seite laut Technorati zum ersten Mal in einem Blog verlinkt wurde, erreichte er 2 Millionen, vorgestern waren es 9, heute sind es 20 Millionen.

		<description>She looks like every single girl that goes to my community college.  In fact, I think she's in my psychology of women class, and I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to meet at her house next weekend to talk about lesbians in the media.</description>

		<description>Puffin, that's actually one I've been wanting, too (I only have it on mixed tape).  Here's the link to request songs for itunes:

		<description>[...] But rats and human beings are very different. For instance, if for some bizarre reason a human male wants bad sex with a reluctant female, making doors a bit smaller isn&#8217;t going to be enough to stop him. Humans, you see are pack animals and we have access to social pressure. Exhibit #1 from Twisty is this dude&#8217;s site. So, here&#8217;s the story&#8230; I said to my girlfriend that any stupid website could get tons of hits, simply because people are bored all the time. She said that I was an idiot and couldnâ€™t make a website that could get tons of hits if I wanted to. After a long argument (mostly centered around the fact that she called me an idiot) we made a bet: [...]</description>

		<description>Mandos, here's the version some of the rest of us are fantasizing: 

"Hey, let's go do this in &lt;i&gt;my&lt;/i&gt; bed! More space and no bedbuggers. And wait till I show you what I've got in my fridge!" 

"OK. Bye, Wotsisname!"</description>
