von_geisterhandThe "F-Word" started it because of the "Daily Mail" and/or what it believes feminists find important, miss_s_b then took up the baton and davegodfrey soon followed suit. Who am I to disagree and drop the ball? Particularly as it seems to totally spurious and ridiculous. Mind you, there is a serious subtext somewhere under all the bovine dung. Find it, keep it, spread it. (Subtext and funnier answers can be found at the linked locations).
Can you vajazzle and be a feminist?
Can you what? Excuse me, is this what I think it is? Is Snoop Dogg involved? I never really liked his music, you know, much less what he has done to spelling.
(looks up "vajazzle")
Dear Gods, so it's less Snoop Dogg and more Bling Puzzy. Why would you want to put rhinestones there? What's the point of Swarowski anyway? But yeah, no feminist points deducted for this.
(lose 1d6 SAN, though)
Is it sexist to call a woman "love" or "dear"?
No, but please stop calling anyway. Mom is trying to sleep.
Does Katie Price let women down?
My friend Emma, who knows more about these thing than I ever will, says "No". Apparently, their version of "A whole new world" is quite decent. But I know what you mean: successful woman working in several areas and still finding time to raise and disperse a family. My, such a disappointment.
Should women take their husband's name when they get married?
No. The husband still needs it. Unless of course the woman is very domineering. In that case, he will only be called "Worm" from now on anyway and will not have much need for a name in the near future.
Is Rihanna a feminist icon?
I have no idea. The last popstar-and-supposed-feminist-icon that deeply disappointed me was Kelly Rowland. After that I really stopped caring.
But I mean, yeah, good on Rhianna for leaving her boyfriend after he battered her. Perhaps Whitney Houston would still be alive today if she had taken similar actions.
But please, no more music!
Who should pay the bill on a date?
Whoever can afford it and/or wants to delight the other person. Paying for whatever you ordere should be the default option.
Is stripping an acceptable career choice?
As long as the sight of you disrobing doesn't also strip paint from the walls, yes.
