Why? Y...Please please please don't stop doing #1.<br /><br />Why? You sum it up best yourself:<br /><br />"I think that misogyny in pop culture is important; I think that even the small things can help to show how the larger structures and myths of sexism function;"<br /><br />For those reasons, what you do here is not at all silly or trivial. In fact, your smackdowns are quite satisfying to read.Fannie Wolfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04296502470605119779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726951603608379154.post-87250775873976398122009-06-02T08:31:26.363-07:002009-06-02T08:31:26.363-07:00"However: it is my understanding that lots of peop..."However: it is my understanding that lots of people do not like an argument as much as I do; they apparently find them hurtful and unpleasant." <br /><br />I don't understand people who find heated discussion hurtful and unpleasant.

Without you I would never have known the wonders of Aaron P. Taylor! And you would never have had his encouraging words suggesting you do stand up cause you are so funny. And as one of the OGs of this blog (I think I've read every post ever) you don't over do jokes ever. You are always funny. You are the funniest smart person on the internets as far as I'm concerned.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01779579307144413466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726951603608379154.post-26249478029612171892009-06-02T04:15:18.284-07:002009-06-02T04:15:18.284-07:00Oh, thank God.

As another newly minted blogger (proudly on my second month! woohoo!) I'm getting the same kind of education, so it's good to read your retrospective here as I continue to figure out what I'm doing, what I want to do, and what I should please stop doing. (Apparently, calling people "ducks" is on that list. Hmm.)<br /><br />But please! Don't stop! Doing number 4! ;)C. L.
