9:16p - Cause There's Nothing Funnier than Feminists Without A Sense of Humor
Y'all know the celeb-style-mocking site Go Fug Yourself, right? (And if you don't, check it out. A recent post on the winners and losers of the Eurovision contest made me bust my gut laughing. Who knew Urukhai could be so stylin'?!)

So anyway, the feminist-orientated site Pandagon.net recently had an editorial about how Go Fug Yourself actually is funny, even for those among them against the partriarchy agrees. Several posters (notably Ann Bartow and Nancy disagree, very verbosely. Much back and forth about being proper feminist, talking or not talking shit about celebrities and people in real life, and Drew Barrymore's saggy breasts (seriously!) ensues. Consesus, despite being a long time coming, does not somehow quite occur.

BONUS: Ann Bartow explains in depth why she in particular hates the site. You can start weeping for those poor, albeit grossly overpaid, female celebrities who actually have to put some thought into their appearences now.


current mood: Dumped on
