Freedom’s just another word for nothin left to lose

It’s no secret that living “like a woman set free” — as opposed to living like a proper woman, a subordinate enslaved and subdued by socioeconomic, ideological, biological and cultural forces — is an offense against human decency. Since the dawn of time, free-wheelinosity in women […]
Tuna on wheat: a fixed and unalterable point in the space-time continuum
What other people are saying about their lunch:
“At Bob’s urging, I just made my lunch for tomorrow.”

“I had a Pizza McPuff at MCdonald’s but did not have any fun as I has to study after that!!! :((”

Abandon hope, all ye who enter here
Speaking of PSA posters that objectify with pornulated imagery the very class of people their message purports to serve, get a load of this “consent awareness” ad from the British Home Office. The ad is intended for publication in a magazine read (or, possibly more accurately, looked at) by […]
Hakuo Yanagisawa, former finance minister, now Borg King
I just had to add this guy to my collection. I allude, of course, to Japan’s health minister, pronouncing on the crisis of falling birth rates:
“Because the number of birth-giving machines and devices is fixed, all we can ask for is for them to do their best per […]
It seems inconceivable, in this golden epoch when no reality exists for man except the limitless gratification of his sexual perversions, that there should persist, like a nagging dose of syphilis, little unpornulated pockets of the daily humdrum that afford little or no opportunity for titillation. Of course there are only three of them, but […]

“Joe Francis […] has my face pressed against the hood of a car, my arms twisted hard behind my back. […]
Good news, bad news

First, the bad news.
Get a load of this poster, photographed by DC blogger/photographer techne at a Washington DC bus hut. The poster features a faceless young woman’s body, its physique of porn-approved dimensions, clothed in what is popularly […]
It’s the craziest thing. Just yesterday I was joking around about mocking BDSM for cheep laffs, when whaddya think happened but a pro-BDSM comment came in. It was left on an ancient post consisting of two short sentences and the above-pictured ‘fetish’ shoes. Because its outrage is so feebly expressed, I decided to promote it […]
Radical Feminist Literacy Program, Part A: Firestone
Published January 22nd, 2007 in Patriarchy-blaming. 144 CommentsIt’s been semi-announced already, but for those who prefer a structured warning to subtle intimation:
It is written that there will probably transpire, at this here blog, on or about March 1, 2007, a discussion of sorts on a pre-ordained topic. While the future is, ultimately, unknowable, that topic is foreseen to be Shulamith Firestone’s gripping […]
