Newsflash! The Right Has Discovered Sexism!
What’s this? I’ve heard that the Right has discovered a new kind of discrimination that occurs… wait, wait, this is just coming in… against women, of all people. That’s right, folks, there is some kind of “double standard” being employed, as we speak, that makes women less free than their fellow citizens. But the good [...]

Sex Is Fun: the Twin Problems of Ignorance and Boom
I’m writing this post with this header image in the hopes that it will not appear to be an advertisement for sex. This is not usually a problem I have; most of the things that I blog about are not nearly this much fun. That’s why I am boldly persevering, despite it all. Being a [...]

I'll Be Postfeminist in the Postpatriarchy: A Bumper Sticker Dissection
I was recently driving around my city (and by recently, i mean two weeks ago, since I’m currently stationed in Colombia, South America, in a city that’s anything but my own) and I saw one of those cars plastered with bumper stickers- coexist, hug a tree, my other car is a broomstick, that sort of [...]

That's What My Daddy's Made Me: Simian Mobile Disco's "Hustler" Videos
I’ve been listening to the London-based Simian Mobile Disco, a music production team who call themselves “Electro/ Psychadelic/ Alternative” on their Myspace page. They are composed of two guys named James (foreground, left) and claim to sound like “good, old-fashioned, analogue party music” (as their wacky Brit-ball spelling has it). Specifically, I’ve been listening to [...]

Um, Cum Again? I'm a Frayed Knot: Polyhedral Shapes in Sex
I’m still in the process of cleaning out my room after college. Bear with me — I know I graduated (ahem) more than two weeks ago, but I also am doing a deeper cleaning than I’ve done in my room since, well, I was about eight, apparently. I recently came across a Valentine that local [...]

Equality: Not Satanism, Last I Checked
Recently I stumbled upon this website run by that beacon of truth and goodness, the Christian Right. In fine form, they announced at the beginning of the page, “FEMINISM IS EVIL! Beware of the feminists, many are LESBIANS!” Ah, yes, such tolerance and open mindedness is exactly what we have been taught to expect from [...]

'It's Not Rape if She Blinks Twice for Yes' and Other Phallacies of Rape Culture
The New York Times recently reported that yet another rapist is being let off of the hook – as the majority are. Nearly 95% of men standing trial for rape in the United States and the United Kingdom are cleared of all charges, which is a shocking number considering the social, personal and political consequences [...]
