I just want to yell so many good things about Britney Spears. Look at this parenting right here; rather than just twist their arms and tell the ‘smile or no McFlurry on the drive home’ she’s checking if her little boys are comfortable with the cameras and attention and if not, no problem baby boy, you go chill. And I have no problem with her staying to get more pictures, especially not when her other adorable kid wants to.  I mean, it’s her job up to a point. And we all know for a fact she probably watched the film with both the little bugs in her lap anyway. 

Considering what she dealt with and went through in front of paps….god, I love her.

people can say what they want about her supposed meltdown, but frankly, that entire ‘episode’ always made perfect sense to me. she and i are of an age, and no matter how young or old i was, i always understood perfectly why she did it, and thought it was utter bullshit that a court could order what they did, instead of reprimanding the many, many people that felt so entitled to her that they drove her to extremes just to get 5 seconds of peace.

and now seeing this kind of thing? she has just gotten more awesome.

i remember reading how she got herself a tutor so she could help her kids with their homework. not got THEM a tutor, but she got herself one because she wanted to be the one helping them. that’s a+++ parenting right there ok?

This makes me so happy :’)

She got a court order because she was, by her own admission, raising her kids like her mother raised her. The judge sent her to therapy and parenting classes to work out all of the horrible stage-mother bullshit she had to live through. I mean, she thought it was normal to give her kids cough syrup and whiskey so they’d sleep, because it’s what her mother gave her to knock her out when she got rowdy.

I think Britney is a great role model for adult abused children and is living proof that you are not trapped in the cycle of abuse.

The purest 90s kid experience is being so happy for Britney Spears in her new life

Pretty Cure: Selling Prettiness as a Cure-all

Here’s an essay that I wrote for a Cultural Anthropology class about how Precure does not challenge gender roles, but merely upholds them. I know in Western discourse, the concept of Weaponized Femininity gets a lot of praise, and mahou shoujo are emblematic for this kind of “empowerment”. In this essay, I tackle the longest running mahou shoujo franchise critically to explain how this kind of treatment is not empowering: emphasized femininity is the only choice young girls are presented with in the animation industry, stifling other representation of gender expression. 

Note: when I wrote this essay, the franchise was airing Go! Princess Precure, which is its twelfth installment. Since then, two more seasons have come out, but as it currently stands, neither of those series properly challenges the issues I describe.

In short: precure is bad because of how western media portrays the color pink as a feminine and weak color, OP completely disregarding the fact that pink in Japan is associated with warriors. Also, have you seen precure? their combat is mostly physical contact, in what way does that showcase to stay “feminine”?
