This week in sexist car ads, we have a real gem from the good folks at Volkswagen (circa 1964). Women: They are soft and gentle, but they're so bad at doing stuff!
Culture Buzz In the emo corner of the internet, there is a Tumblr called Boner Party that posts amusing “anecdotes” about women. The name/ description alone should indicate that a bunch of people think it's sexist, but anyway, such a debate has erupted. This BuzzFeed editor does not buy the sexism claims, but I also spend 40% of my working hours ogling Chris Pine. So. Boner Party is a great read, btw, if you don't get offended by things.
Probably due to the bad influence of the Women's Lib movement, some ladies in the '30s got the silly idea into their pretty little heads that they could be animators just like men. As a result, Walt Disney Productions had to find polite, easy-to-understand ways to delicately explain why this could never be the case.
Major porn studio seeks Sarah Palin lookalike ASAP! Here is the Craig's List posting. I wonder what the movie will be called? Any ideas?
Yes, it’s what The Daily Show is known best for: recognizing hypocritical blowhards in politics. But this clip, in which Jon Stewart so effortlessly lambasts right-wing luminaries Karl Rove and Bill O’Reilly as they bemoan the alleged sexism being faced by Sarah Palin, is a must-see. And to think: it’s very likely the interns sifting through endless footage at The Daily Show who are quietly rocking the political stratosphere. Go get ‘em, kids.
A photographic representation of the differences between men and women. Would I be affirming the photograph’s message if I said I didn’t think things were that simple?
Obama dodges an important question at an auto plant and calls Peggy Agar, a reporter, “sweetie.” But she did get a personal apology from him via voicemail. Swoon! I would never erase my inbox again.
Culture Buzz Maxim gets flack for placing Sarah Jessica Parker at the top of the “unsexiest women” list, also for having an “unsexiest women” list in the first place, and also for generally being lame and shallow. Even the dudes we know who are the totally dudest of dudes don’t read this magazine. So why do we care?
Politics Buzz An article in the Washington Post entitled “We Scream, We Swoon. How Dumb Can We Get?” is generating outrage from bloggers. In the article, she accuses female Obama supporters of being silly groupies. Shouldn’t the fact that Barack Obama is the new NKOTB be a step up for womankind? We just put in our orders for some “Women for Obama” baby tees.
TV Buzz Conservative watchdog groups are giving Fox News flack for their gratuitously hot anchorwomen and their short skirts. We're actually surprised that news journalism has gotten thus far without realizing that people will only care about your stories if someone hot is delivering them to you.
