Body and Soul
she's smart, sharp and fills me with blogging envy.
(and my boss is out of town, so i'm taking advantage. i'm so glad blogging didn't exist when i was in grad school. i never would have passed my prelims!!)
there's a post about lefty-guy bloggers calling political opponents 'bitches and pussies'. the discussion gets a little wonky (everyone seems to be very well-versed in gender studies) but it's good. (not as good as the online feminist essays about 'yentl' - but that's another entry.)
my take: go ahead, use the words 'pussies' and 'bitches' in political discourse. it merely highlights intellectual laziness.
(and i'm very conscious of my own profane tongue.
well - i am NOW.)
