madonna tour 08

It feels like I am never above ground when I am in Manhattan. Just a couple nights ago however I was riding the Greyhound back from visiting Sister in Providence. We had to drive through the Times Square area and I caught this on one of those digital billboards - while I was reading Fertility Awareness for Non-Invasive Birth Control actually



There are 3 ways to tell if you are fertile: By logging and observing daily changes in yr bodies tempature, checking the position of yr cervix & analysizing/examining yr cervical fluid.

"Sticky" isn't the most fertile type of cervical fluid, but it is fertile & Madonna is getting old.

I just think the ad is funny really. I don't know what kinda messae she is trying to send besides "sex". Wut do y'all think?

Subtle Sexism

I called an apartment complex and I heard this on a recorded message while I was put on hold (picture this spoken by middle aged man/movie preview guy's voice):

"Itsy bitsy teeny weeny might be OK for a bikini, but it's the last thing you want in storage space...."

yeah because its so normal for women to wear as little fabric as possible. because its so normal for women to expose their bodies. because its so normal for women look pleasing to men.

IDK this just stuck out to me because being put on hold on the phone of an apt complex was the last place i thought i'd hear something reminding me that my body is consummable. and the way the man's voice said "bikini", the whole load of it sounded so condescending.
