Have you ever tried to play a regular guitar? I did when I was younger. And it was hard! It seemed like my hands were not big enough to play it.
Apparently, that was not far from the truth. And apparently someone decided to do something about it. In fact, there are guitars out there that are made just for girls. Did you know that? If you do not believe me just check out Daisy Rock Guitars. They are made specifically for girls. How awesome is that?!
It is interesting how many haters there are out there against Hillary Clinton. And a lot of them are hatin’ on her just because she is a woman. Yet no one seems to care.
Apparently Facebook does not care either. I was reading on the Bust magazine site this. Apparently Facebook has a policy against hate speech yet they let all of these clearly sexist anti-Hillary sites pop up. For the complete article on this, check it out here.
It seems that Eliot Spitzer has been all over the news these past few days. Personally, I do not care that he has a weakness for prostitutes. However, I think he should have thought about his wife and kids and decided which he wanted – the family or the hookers. But it is too late for that now.
And I am tired of seeing his wife at his side at his press conferences. I am so tired of women that ‘stand by their men’ in times like this. When will it end? When will women be strong enough to realize that they do not have to put up with that kind of crap?
I think that pretty much every woman knows who Madeleine Albright is. She is a former Secretary of State. And a woman that rocks!
She is also a woman that has been campaigning for Hillary Clinton. She made several stops for Hillary in Ohio and other states.
And today she has done a guest post on Hillary’s blog. You can find that post here.
Do you have a hope for women? Well, regardless, there is at least someone out there that does. And they made a video PostSecret style about it. The video below was done by Antigone Magazine. And it lists out some of their hopes for women. And I could not agree more with it.
Have you ever seen a movie where the main character ended up at the DMV?
If so, what happened?
They were there a really long time right? And someone was really mean and rude to them right?
And did you notice that the movies always have women in those roles? Why do people in Hollywood think that the DMV is staffed with nothing but rude and bitchy women? At least the movies that I can recall are like that.
I was doing some thinking earlier about travel and hotels.
Then I had an interesting thought.
Have you ever seen a hotel maid that was male?
I bet not!
I have travelled a lot. And I can’t recall seeing one male hotel maid anyplace. And I also can’t recall ever seeing any female “bellboys” which could partly be due to the sexist name of the occupation. Actually, I think they are called “bellhops” now but still, I have never seen a female one.
Ah, I love Gloria Steinem.
But what feminist doesn’t? I mean, honestly?
I recently found out that she was out stumping for Hillary Clinton in Texas last week. I think that is awesome that Hillary let her do that. But apparently she made some comments that were not received well by the media. They were in reference to John McCain. Click through on the link above to read about them for yourself.
Don’t we all want a “Vagina-Friendly Mayor” ????
C’mon now, you know you do.
And if you happen to live in New Orleans, then you already do. Yes, this gem of a saying was spoken by their mayor. And honestly, I am not quite sure what to make of it.
I suppose it is a good thing, yes? I think so.
You know what I hate? That a skirt is considered nice dress for women while khakis can be considered nice dress for men.
When I was 16 I worked at an IHOP. My uniform was a dress. The boys got to wear their own black pants with the uniform shirt.
I often asked why I could not wear the black pants. It made sense in a safety scenario. There was a lot of hot coffee there. And my legs were not protected from it like the boys.
So, why did I have to wear the dress?
Apparently the peeps in charge of uniforms for IHOP are sexist. Or at least they were. I have no idea what the uniform is now.
