Antonin Scalia:Life, Liberty, & the Pursuit of Concentration Camps
As if we needed reasons to fear and loathe Antonin Scalia, we’ve just received another. (WARNING: THE FOLLOWING POST IS DISTURBING.) No, it’s not that hunting trip he took with Cheney – wikipedia offers that “Scalia refused, however, to recuse himself in the case of Cheney v. United States District Court for the District of [...]

Meta-Hipsters and the Effectiveness of Ironically Self-Mocking PopCulture
So, in between waiting for episodes of 30 Rock to download, I got to thinking. Why is it that I so love this TV show about a woman making TV shows, written, produced, directed, and starred in by a Tina Fey, a woman who makes TV shows? Is there perhaps something especially entertaining about entertainment [...]

Who cares if you got raped: stop staring at my dog!
Holy shit, check out this horrific story from Rawstory.com: I don’t know what to say. The horror is heightened by the fact that I know and love Chelsea, VT. Also, to lighten things up: (thanks, Danno!)

Pass the Gender Role, Bro: How We Form and Perpetuate Stereotypes
Thanks to Huehueteotl for this awesome post on intellectual vanities, “Gender Role and How We Gain It.” It packs quite a punch when read alongside CultureKitchen’s “How to Create a Rape Victim“by Nezua Limon Xol. The former deals with the social construction of gender, and the second with the social construction of gender power. This [...]

I, Fembot: the Object and Subject revisited
Sit back and grab a drink, because this might be a long haul. You’re back! Sweet. Here goes: a good friend recently brought up self-objectification in a frank conversation about sex. “Really, I don’t see what’s wrong with it,” she said, “I like feeling sexy.” I listened to her argument, but I remain skeptical that [...]
