Your handwriting. The way you walk. Which china pattern you choose. It’s all giving you away. Everything you do shows your hand. Everything is a self-portrait. Everything is a diary.

So we all know that “All about that bass” was already not empowering because it bases the acceptance of fat bodies on the validation by men*. no thank you! (and i mean that with and without a comma)

But the new song: “Dear future husband” is just the exact definition of post-feminist, so...

You affect me in ways I can’t quantify or contain. All I can measure is the effect, and the effect is that I am out of control.

“You fix your make up, just so/ Guess you don’t know that you’re beautiful/ Try on every dress that you own/ You were fine in my eyes a half hour ago/ And if your mirror won’t/ make it any clearer/ I’ll be the one to let you know…”

Dedicated to my cousin and her newlywed husband, who danced their first dance as a married couple to this song.

Of course I am not worried about intimidating men. The type of man who will be intimidated by me is exactly the type of man I have no interest in.

You meet a lot of people around the world and you look at it and think, “Oh, okay… Better put my back into that.” It’s not getting better. In many cases it’s getting worse. You know, there’s that great film out there 12 Years A Slave and you go, “Hm, well, it’s still here,” and slavery is on the rise. It’s on the rise! And you go, “How did that happen? How did we let that happen? How have we managed to drop the ball quite so spectacularly?” You know? And to pretend it’s not happening, it’s an unqualified disaster and failure. Failure of political will- it’s a failure. We have failed. We have failed this generation. I’m just interested in that now because I’m old enough to have seen and heard a lot. [x]
