Hateful image keeps popping up on tv

Evidently someone thought there was nowhere better to write the name of a tv program than on a girl's butt.

And they keep advertising for it during the Simpsons, in case I just wanted to laugh and forget that I shouldn't be watching tv and letting my butt grow unappropriate for name writing. Also, you're all little sex objects, bitchez.

I can't believe how much gratuitious sexism tv can dish out every day. Stuff like this alredy is bad enough, add to it hideous advertising and asshole shows...not a women-friendly enviroment.

In fact, only white hetero man can watch some tv without feeling horrible..the rest can just go fuck themselves.

Today, remembrance of the "Foibe"

Today is the Foibe's remembrance day. For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, the foibe were tortures that lasted until the '50s, done by Tito's Yugoslavs on the Italian population.

Particulary, there is one girl, Norma Cossetto, whose story is one to be remembered. It's just one story among thousands, touching and horrifying, just like everyone else's.

Norma was a student at the University of Pavia, she was 23 years old, when she was kidnapped by the Yugoslavs and put in a prison, were she was repeatedly raped by seventeen guards. Then her breasts were badly damaged, and the rest of her body slashed. She was thrown in one of the foibe, deep holes in the ground from which the name of these tortures came. In fact, the prisoners were usually tied together and put at the edge of the foiba. The first was shot, so all the rest fell into the foibe alive, and there they died.

Norma's story was reported by other prisoners who survived, and was then honored by the University of Pavia.

I've shaved!

Because I'm feeling all weird, I just have to inform the world about this little piece of news...the reassuring hairyness of my legs is gone.



The nice and comfortable before:

Thea after much screaming after:

Boohoohoo...my legs feel so bald and naked now. I hate them.                                                                

What makes me hate all-girl times.

"My boobs are too small. They're hateful"
"Mine are so disgusting! They are just do HUGE! Ewww!"
"I have to shave my legs again..they always have these stupid black points.."
"My hair can't be kept in place for two minutes...it's so messy! I hate it!"
"I need to thin down. I have great big dusgusting blobs of fat."
"Me too."
"Me too"
"Me too."
"And that girl over there, isn't she ugly!"
"Yeah, she is...she's too aggressive...and she got muscles too...ew."

Conversations like this are really, really common in all girl environments. Which is why I hate gym lessons. It's a constants putting themseves and others down. There's always something wrong. Something must always be fixed. It's truly exasperating.

It's very sad too. All these girls, who evidently find nothing to do or talk about except applying the male gaze to themselves, with all it's impossible standards and everything. And I know most of these girls...they are people with ambitions, strenght and great personalities...yet, it is phisical aspect which, in the end, matters the most, and which makes them so insecure.
And the majority are very conventionally pretty too...when they talk like that you can literally see the ones who vary from canonic beauty shrink and shame themselves. It's  horrible. And incredibly irritating.       

Analyzing school books (kind of)

Because I had nothing better to do (well, nothing other than Latin anyway), today I started taking photos of my school books. I got somewhat interesting results.

Geography:
Here is the cover

Welll, a the other way round cover, but anyway.

Notice that, strangely, they are all girls. Girls are being used to represent the world's population as a whole! That is indeed good.

I guess they are also trying to convey diversity, both cultural and racial, as in a white girl with a veil and one without, a black girl with a veil and one without. Maybe they're all girls because boys don't wear veils?

Physics:

Now, while most figures looked something like this (i.e.male):

 

I was surprised to see stuff like this too:

Which made me smile.

I then counted the female figures and the male ones. 28 males, and 6 females. 5 had both.

There were only 6 photos of girls.

Grammar:

The grammar one has a girl on the cover. With a computer.

All in all, pretty good. =)

The Ranting Teenager is back!

Sorry, I know I've been away for some time now. That has been due to a combination of lack of time and lack of ideas.

Moreof a lack of time.
Or maybe more lack of ideas.

Also, I got 4/10 on the technical drawing test, which made me grumpy. On the other hand, I got 7/10 on Latin, which is wonderful. On another hand yet, you most likely don't care...I promise a series of decent posts now!

And this is totally unrelated but it's a quote I found funny:
"Remember, if you need a hand, you will find at the end of your arm."
