On Advertising
Advertising has gained such phenomenal power, it’s now allowed pretty much everywhere. And because it’s allowed pretty much everywhere, it has gained phenomenal power.
In fact, it has almost single-handedly destroyed the concept of public space because of its invasion of said public space with constant and loudly-proclaimed messages intended for private gain (not for …

What I learned about men by posting a ‘For Sale’ ad on Kijiji
The ad said $100. Men offered $70, $80, $90. Every woman who replied to the ad accepted the stated price.
The ad indicated my location, implying pick-up. Men asked whether I’d deliver it (all or part of the way) or simply said my location was too far away. The closest a woman got to that …

One way to deal with it (sexism) (in science this time)
“When I go to a venture-capital group of only men,” Nacy said, “I do most of the speaking, and my chief business officer and I watch faces. If they’re incredulous about something I’ve said, he’ll repeat the same thing—and then it’ll be just fine.”

Trying to figure out people’s actions or thinking — banned on Reddit? WTF.
So in addition to all the radfem censorship on reddit …
I posted the following on the AskMen subreddit:
Why do men rape?
That’s my question. Seriously. Why do men rape? I just wrote a novel answering that question, Impact, but I’d like to hear from men. (And perhaps should’ve posted here BEFORE I wrote …

Hunting – only men
It’s hunting season again — moose for a week, then deer for two weeks — and I have yet to hear an acceptable justification.
The animals are having enough trouble surviving because of what we’ve done, and what we’re still doing, to the forests. And now you want to just go out and kill them.

Out with the literary canon?
I used to think that ‘Out with the literary canon altogether’ was going too far, but now … Name one work conventionally considered part of the traditional literary canon that does not subordinate women—their existence, their presence, their importance, what they say, what they do …
And so by continuing to grant the work such …

The Montreal Massacre (and Donna Decker’s Dancing in Red Shoes Can Kill You)
People who are/were shocked by the Montreal Massacre don’t know women’s history. Men have been killing us for centuries. Simply because we’re women. They kill each other too, but in that case, it’s mostly because of their target’s sexual orientation, tribal affiliation, or skin color. They kill us because of our sex.
Is it more …

On being wanted.
Also while reading James Morrow’s The Wine of Violence…
” … a world finally wanted his ideas.” (p119)
That stopped me. Because even academia, not just the world at large, had never wanted my ideas. Simply because they come from a female-embodied person.
Maybe that’s why ‘love’ is so much more important to women than …

On getting paid. Or not.
So I was reading James Morrow’s The Wine of Violence and when I got to “Will the Journal of Evolution publish it? Publish, it, hell, they’ll make me an editor” (p25), I stopped, puzzled for a moment.
