What ever happened to feminism?

After the awful findings I write about here last week on the blame for rape according to the “great” British public I didn’t think things could get anymore depressing in a post-feminist world. But then, as I was trying to formulate my first essay plan, listening for light - very light - relief to Yorkshire’s Real Radio and an advert came on… for breast enlargement. OK, so this is bad enough, but it was how the advert ran that most repulsed and depressed me. Firstly a excited man talks to a female friend who’s had her tits done, and then his partner comes on saying something like ‘heehee, Dave, you know it is my birthday soon…?’ and he goes ‘Ah! OK… What’s the number of that plastic surgeon again?’. HIDEOUS! This is the world we are living in folks - where women are supposed to want their breast enlarged for their birthday. Just makes me all the more certain on what I want for my birthday: a bottle of Jack Daniels!!!!!!!!! |
