" MAYBE I WOULDN'T HAVE TO BE A FEMINIST IF YOU WEREN'T SUCH AN ASSHOLE."

I want to steal all the world's fortune cookies and replace the fortunes with that sentence.

I love it! What a wonderful idea!

But how do we educate those who don't eat Chinese food?

Also, I loved Hanna's dictum, "In her kiss, I taste the revolution!" To me, a lesbian, it of course means that girls should fuck each other, not the macho pigs out there. You wanna overthrow the patriarchy; become lesbians!

But that's just me!

Kisses, Justine

Dear MK and Verviana --

Your post and comment got me thinking, and I scribbled a related post for my LJ, referencing your list and singling out three. Come see -- http://devifemme.livejournal.com/968128.html

Thanks for stimulating me!
