a transition

When I think of women, this is a hard time in my life right now. I grew up with a lot of girls who act like they value you on the basis of your status as a wife and/or mother. It is really depressing. When we were younger I never knew it would feel this way when I got older. I will have to get over it somehow. I feel immensely let down, not so much by not being married or not having gotten pregnant and such, but by the strange herd mentality of it all, because it means a lot of the girls you grew up with have no interest in you now. If you had gotten married or if your body had gotten pregnant, perhaps you'd be worth something to them, and that is very strange. Things weren't like that when I was younger. And why, why, why do so many women still change their names? It's a little thing. It's just a name change. But so many women have changed their names. I don't know any men who have changed theirs.

SIGH.

Identity is curious. People are becoming more accepting of gay people, transgender people. However, there is still a ways to go. If you believe you are one gender in this life but you were a different gender or from different ethnic backgrounds in other times, and that those things are still informing your present existence, that makes people uneasy. Sometimes, it almost seems as if some people are more open to "I was born in the wrong body; I want to be a girl (or boy)" than they are to a person who is living a life with parts that are still in other places, times, existences.
~~~
Not everyone is super uncomfortable with that sort of thing. In general, though, that seems to be the case.

That guy with the beard surrounded by nature books seems to have a happy, peaceful life.
You can't be that now. And why?
Because you are a girl...on purpose.

"Feminism is a broad issue." ~ Somewhere on reddit

"Feminism is a monster issue." ~ Monster

Words...

"Sellers, the Democratic House member from Denmark, said the Legislature’s failure to pass any of the bills to protect domestic abuse victims, yet pass one to protect their pets, offers a sad commentary.


'When you say it like that, it’s laughable. Then you have to stop and say, ‘You know it’s not funny.’ A woman dying: It supersedes all politics, but it apparently doesn’t supersede ignorance.'”

On the list...

Til Death Do Us Part, winner of Pulitzer for Public Service

Wow...

"Couple this with deep-rooted beliefs about the sanctity of marriage and the place of women in the home, and the vows “till death do us part” take on a sinister tone."

"All 46 counties have at least one animal shelter to care for stray dogs and cats, but the state has only 18 domestic violence shelters to help women trying to escape abuse in the home."

http://www.postandcourier.com/tilldeath/partone.html

~~~~~

Man, I don't know, because I did have some dreams (anguished woman screaming help me stuff) but are these sentiments almost sorta holding hands?

1)
"Republican Sen. Tom Corbin thinks that domestic violence legislation has focused on the wrong things. It needs to focus on what causes violence. “There needs to be a lot more love for Jesus in the world, and I think that would curb a lot of violence.”

http://www.postandcourier.com/tilldeath/parttwo.html


2)
"...every time you play into this unidirectional one-dimensional idea of how violating consent works--
Every time you do that, you feed rape culture. You hurt a lot of men, and you make it a lot easier for men to hurt women.
Please stop."


YEAH MAYBE IF WE MAKE ALL THE STORIES ABOUT THE ABUSED MEN IT WILL FINALLY START BECOMING MORE IMPORTANT.

"An unintended consequence of the show's newfound popularity was what is known as 'the Scully effect' — the scientific-minded Scully, who gave up a promising career in medicine to join the FBI, has inspired countless young women to pursue careers in science and medicine.

'Well, that was originally why I took the job, because I knew ... ' Anderson said. 'Um, no. No, I had no idea. It was a surprise to me, when I was told that. We got a lot of letters all the time, and I was told quite frequently by girls who were going into the medical world or the science world or the FBI world or other worlds that I reigned, that they were pursuing those pursuits because of the character of Scully. And I said, 'Yay!''

'I believe that a lot of men, because of me ...' Duchovny started.

'Threw pencils at ceilings?' Anderson asked. 'Ate sunflower seeds? Hid themselves in basements? Got into porn?'"

Before viewing Attack of the Killer Tomatoes ("You will have to find another man you know, you're no spring chicken!")

the "Fertility" part of  (on the radio in the car) "Virginity Fidelity and Fertility."

reminding me of that time when I got really disturbed when I saw GK on stage (he said "this is the only college I've ever been to that's named after a fruit") and he made some crack about being useless for producing kids after age 35 'cause he's a jerk and several hours later had the weird ghost bowling ball braxton-hicks experience, which probably was caused by orange triangle UFOS (i read about them after that experience)

have to get better at stuff. We were cute little kids once. We grew up. We forgot things. We got oppressed and sad. All those people that are little kids right now are gonna grow up. We're going to keep getting older. And if you believe in reincarnation...

Clearly, this is miserable, although good for the bystander who had the presence of mind to film it.

http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/apr/08/feidin-santana-bystander-walter-scott-shooting-interview

This reminds me of a story I heard back in the '90s from someone who had to witness a woman get shot and killed by police in the chain grocery store he worked in. I don't think anyone was charged with murder in that case, either. (But I wonder if the grocery store had a video camera.)

http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/video/2015/apr/03/idaho-police-shooting-jeanetta-riley-video

And then there's all the domestic violence killings, gang fights, robberies, random people shooting up schools because their love interests won't go out with them, people getting killed as they're trying to cross the border...If you even try to look at it all, it certainly is a horrible, violent world.

Slackin'

almost back to the homework, however... I found this: (cherry picking) & went to the store to get cherries, and chocolate, and cherry juice. A man was standing in front of the juice. He looked sad. I mentally kicked myself, 'cause I almost forgot to remember the farmworkers. I read this: (Lykke Li) A musical girl who likes to jaunt off to Mexico City and drinks almond milk. I wonder how she feels about the drought… Then I read this (Outlander review) and even though I've never seen the show, I am going to show it to someone who’s having a big ol’ working weekend ‘cause I’m sure sharing feminist thoughts about TV shows after a long day will be just the thing…I can’t wait…

cosmetic grouch

It's not that I mind make-up and stuff. I especially have a little flirtation with eye make-up and lip gloss once in a while. But if some girl wants to get huffy about how superior her eyebrow grooming techniques are, that's when I encounter a specific...like, I wake up every morning having to make evaluations of how things are going on my face and then do stuff to make it look "normal." And until I get extra income and want to subject myself to lots of clinical laser pain, that's how it's gonna be. So if I didn't get to my eyebrows (and I usually don't) because I already put in lots of effort in other areas, that's purely my business, NOT anyone else's. Just enjoy your little eyebrow routines and skip the judgement, you cain little vow.
