Every man should read this about what it is like to be a woman. (via WilW on Tumblr)
Test your knowledge of kittykats. (Truth: I only got 70%.)
See-through frog: creepy or interesting? I vote for interesting, but that’s just me.
Yet another things the world does not need: gendered crayons.
The library photo made me snort.
And I agree about the frog, but then I was probably the only girl in high school that thought the biology class day where we dissected a frog was fabulous.
I only got 60%. Darn it.
I love Wil Wheaton’s tumblr. Who knew Wesley Crusher would grow up to be cool?
Frog=creepy.
frog=way cool
gendered crayons=way NOT cool
I want to see that frog after a big lunch. (His, not mine…)
I only got 60% – and I think of myself as a Cat Person. *sigh*
ooou – frog=creepy and cool and what gayle said 🙂 I wanna see him after a big lunch.
gendered crayons = very creepy
As for what it’s like to be a woman, /sigh
70% here, too, though I did know the question about people shaving their eyebrows.
Is it just me, or has the kind of harassment women have to put up with grown worse over the last 30 years? Or maybe I just never experienced the worst of it because I was too timid to speak up assertively. Which was bad enough.
The story of the woman on the train give me the chills…reminds me of a very close call I had once when I was young…makes me mad that it’s still difficult for a young woman to make her daily commute…glad I taught Girl-child some survival skills when she was quite young.
The frog is awesome-cool.
Gendered crayons. I have to say that one again. Gendered CRAYONS. I am stupefied. (Still.)
Don’t think of the crayons as gendered. Simply think of them as two different options: a blue truck or a pink tiara. It’s our own bias or experiences that makes them gendered. Who is to say that a girl wouldn’t prefer a blue truck or a boy wouldn’t prefer a pink tiara? Our children’s perspectives are often our own perspectives – not their own original ones. And, that’s just my perspective with my tiny little B.A. in psychology. Thanks for listening.
