I have to say I am mystified by this whole "grrl" culture thing. I understand the backlash reasoning, the 90's version of the burning bra thing, the sociological IMPORTANCE. Yes, I understand. After all, I AM a girl.

Nevertheless, I cannot get over the fact that this "grrl" movement seems to make it ACCEPTABLE for girls to be assholes. And that, to me, just defeats the claim to being treated fairly.

In any card store there is a line of male bashing cards under the heading of "HUMOR." Humor, huh? Yeah, I bet it's a real hoot to any guy that picks one up. And what would happen if that came out with a line of "women bashing" cards? Scary thought, that. Lawsuit central.

I would think that in order to prove our equality we would want to not only show our many strengths but to do it in a way that doesn't oppress anyone else.

Abolish male Bashing!
Be A Woman! Use your head!
