Thanks, Bitch.

Courtesy of a blog off of Bitch Magazine's website. For whatever reason this made the corners of my mouth turn upward. Maybe cuz its too much of a reality. Maybe because I know girls that look like that. Maybe because I just love Bitch Magazine.

I started reading "Feminism and Pop Culture" today. Written by cofounder of Bitch, Andi Zeisler, I can't really keep my nose out of it. After my rant posted on my facebook, it's given me a new perspective. Perfect timing, too. It talks about embracing our pop culture as more than just sources of entertainment, but as works to be analyzed and to learn from. She, much more articulate than I, pulls feminist characters from music, TV, and movies all through the 70's, up until today. Copyright date 2008. 

Awesome.
