This audio recording of LA Clipper’s Owner Donald Sterling is almost too insane to believe. I feel like it can’t be real. The amount of racist comments that he said and the degrading of his girlfriend who is, in fact, mixed herself is appalling. At one point his girlfriend asks “Do you know that I’m […]
Read More Quick Hit: Donald Sterling’s racist comments!For my final blog post, I want to reflect on this issue of street harassment and the meaning behind telling someone to “smile.” Recently, I was talking to one of my friends and she brought up her feelings about being told to smile when she was not in the best of moods. My first thought […]
Read More Smile Much??As I make my way through my feminist journey, I have come to notice that many people believe that gender issues and race issues have almost completely vanished. I have to say I felt like this before I read article after article about inequality seen today. It is interesting to me that many people choose to […]
Read More You really think racism no longer exists??As the title states, sexual assault has actually been viewed as normal by young girls! A recent study interviewed 100 young people between the ages of 3 and 7. One of the interview subjects stated “They grab you, touch your butt and try to, like, touch you in the front, and run away, but it’s okay, I mean […]
Read More Quick Hit: Sexual Assault is Normal?!?Recently, it has come to my attention that I tend to over analyze many aspects about guys and what they may or may not be thinking. HA! Who am I kidding, I have always known this about myself but it has become more apparent as I talk to different guys and try and start relationships […]
Read More Girls vs Boys: Are they that different?!Would you rather be a whale or a mermaid? When searching through my Facebook newsfeed I saw a post of a naked woman that asked that question. I never thought this question would have been used to try and “motivate” women to work out, but sure enough, a gym posted this sign that had a picture of a beautiful woman […]
Read More Mermaids and Whales: Which should we choose??I found this really interesting video of a woman speaking out about the decision to make Ursula, the evil “witch” from The Little Mermaid, a slimmer version of herself. I looked into this story and sure enough, it was true. Disney took many popular villains and made them into tiny sized dolls and merchandise. This […]
Read More Quick Hit: Ursula slimmed down to nothing!!NASCAR, a very popular sport among today’s American men and women, is not something I have ever really watched or paid attention to until recently. I started talking to this guy and he is an avid racecar driver and loves watching the race every Sunday. We turned out to be better friends than anything else […]
Read More Patrick vs Petty: gender issues in NASCARHello Readers! This week, I wanted to talk about something interesting that hits a little closer to home. The JMU home that is. I was looking through articles on The Breeze’s website and came across a headline that read “Faculty Salaries, Same-sex partner benefits discussed.” Immediately, that grabbed my attention and I became excited that […]
Read More President Alger speaks on same-sex benefits for JMU facultyWho would have thought that a little boy would cause such a stir by bringing a My Little Pony lunch box to school. Nine year old, Grayson Bruce was bullied because the bag he brought was apparently too girly for him. His fellow classmates wanted to teach him a lesson by calling him names, pushing […]
