now she (or her minions) are going after women (well, this isn't her first attempt)
by the way, i went to pick up a copy of
one hundred years of solitude
for a friend to read on a plane trip. when i picked it up, right there on the cover was a sticker that said 'as seen on oprah, chosen for oprah's book club'. i let out a yell right there and then.
oprah keep your hands off of shite i like. ok? i'll stay out of your shite if you stay out of mine.
I'm Not a Feminine-ist
A recent article from Oprah.com called "Are You a Feminist or a Feminine-ist?" is starting to get a little bit of attention. (We found it thanks to mollyfye on twitter, and Girldrive has a great post about it too.)
Here's the teaser:
Being a strong, powerful woman doesn't mean you have to be tough, overworked and unattractive. Karen Salmansohn explains how power and success come from being in touch with your feminine, sexy and loving side.Oh, I can't wait to hear the rest of this one. Strap in, cause we're going to take on the whole piece. It opens with a charming anecdote.
True story: My friend David got mugged at a bank machine by a beautiful, leggy, sexy woman.
"Actually, it might have been a transvestite," David corrected himself.
"It's okay if you were mugged by a woman," I told him, smiling.
Now embarrassed, David said, "The more I think about it, the more I'm sure he was a transvestite."
I laughed but was also intrigued by why David would be so embarrassed to be mugged by a beautiful, leggy, sexy woman, but not a man................

"Feminism" is a concept. "Feminine-ism" is a speech impediment.
Beyond that, don't get me started...
quite right! this is insulting. too much inbetween with Oprah and her own mind anymore (u have to speculate). I think stray is right... beyond this, it just devolves all community, national AND individual feminine advance since before Gloria began publishing MS.
oprah just skeeves me.
