can i tell you that it made my day that you used the word 'cunt'? most people in the states have a coniption about using that word. and it's such a fantastic word. second only to 'twat'.

and b/c i'm lazy and it makes me feel a little creepy to lurk through back entries of people that I haven't actually met, what are you doing your dissertation on?

Haha I don't use it very often, mainly because I don't really swear all that much (except for the word bugger, but that doesn't really count) but you know...swear words are just words, and yes they're used as insults but they're generic impersonal ones. If someone called me a fat cunt, or an ugly cunt, then I'd get offended, but more at the fat or ugly part, not cunt.

Haha that's ok, I haven't really said on here what Im doing it on as far as I can remember. Basically when researching a previous paper I found the following quote:

The day I quit punk rock was the day I realised that whilst the boys like to talk about how oh so fucking PC they are, it never seems cool to be a girl in the scene.

And so I want to use that as my topic/header, and basically do a series of interviews with female musicians, girls working in the industry, and female fans and see what they think about how their gender affects their experiences and participation in the scene. Basically...:D

That's an awesome topic, by the way. Just stopping in to be creepy and comment in a thread I didn't start. :-)

Hahaha that's ok. I'm ridiculously excited for it anyway! Of course this may change once I start doing it, I may end up hating my life, but I hope not...

dont follow, let me guess, you eat apples "wrong?"

throwing things at cars makes me recall the giant mcdonalds coke on oxford street incident of august 2006

Basically...I eat the core of the apple as well, because I'm a weirdo or something.

Oh that oxford street moment, it was fairly wonderful that one!

one day i am hoping that i will learn to shave without completely lacerating my ankles, the scars aren't attractive.

what's your dissertation on? i keep switching between really optimistic and really panicky about my dissertation, i sent off my proposal a month ago but nottingham aren't doing what they said they would and giving us feedback in order to write the rest of it by 1st june... D:

I normally manage to not slice my skin off, sigh. It was fairly gross though!

About sexism in the scene, essentially, but I'm going to do a qualitative dissertation, so I'm going to interview female musicians, female industry workers, and female fans. Basically :D

I can't believe no one else has commented on the fact that some guy SLAPPED YOU ON THE ASS. What if he'd just walked up to you and slapped you round the face? It's fucking ridiculous.
