Wow. I mean, we all knew this kind of attitude existed – feminists have been calling people out for this shit for years. Doesn’t mean I’d expect to see a Judge come out and say it. On the other hand, at least with this crap so blatant and out in the open we have a [...]

Over it.

Last night coffeeguy and I went to a movie. This date had been rescheduled three times at this point. The first time he had to reschedule due to work, the second was my fault, also a work thing, and then we had plans for Sunday day and he was too hungover so it got moved [...]
Mini Post – Dating 7

Not much to report tonight, but thought I’d post an update for those people avidly following my love life from their computer screens.
Sunday went well. I had a nice time (and won) and he didn’t piss me off or raise any red flags, so that’s always a bonus. He’s the type of guy I can [...]
My Vagina is a Great Receptionist (apparently)

Ok, I had a serious wtf? moment at work last week.
The Customer Service team here is made up of four young women all between the ages of 19 and 22. Their manager is a 26 year old woman. When they’re short staffed (often), they are helped out either by a junior member of the Settlements [...]
Equal Pay Anyone?

Next time someone says feminism has gone too far, or that it’s no longer relevant, or whatever other bullshit they’re spouting these days, send them here. Or indeed, next time someone asks me why I’m so bitter for someone so young…
Is it seriously 2009??? This is getting freaking ridiculous.

In some of my recent researching, I’ve stumbled across www.thefrisky.com and absolutely love it. Not every single article is perfect, or stands up to feminist scrutiny, however overall it’s pretty damn awesome.
Now, I know it’s usually considered bad form to respond to a poster on a different site, but given the vile contents of these [...]
Who pays?

I’m finding way more conflicts with how I live my life and what I believe as a feminist now that I’m dating. In a relationship, the compromises are less noticeable*, and seemed to occur less often. In dating, I’m noticing compromises every single time I go out with, or even just talk to, a guy. [...]

Every job leaves it’s mark on you in some way, shape or form. If you’re as big a workaholic as some people, it’s inevitable, but I do believe it’s inevitable in any case. My work history has definitely left it’s mark on me, in much the same way that past relationships do. There was the [...]
Being Judged
Posted in Dating, personal on July 10, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I’ve always been the type of person that other people judge. I’m loud and noticeable and refuse to do what I’m bloody well told to, so it’s my own fault really. The upside is, I’ve never really cared what anyone small minded enough to judge me thinks – I don’t have it in me to [...]
