(no subject)
Oh, Media Lit. I can't say I'm not surprised what happened, but it still saddened me a considerable amount. (I have hesitantly labeled myself a "sad feminist".) I never knew that my most loathed words [ever] would be "normalize" and "desensitize"; that in those two terms everything self-confident women, and perhaps some men, have worked for in the past [couple of centuries in particular] is broken down. Just like that. Just like some magnificent, historic building blown to smithereens by angry dynamite in about 1/1billionth of the time it took to make it.
I need to do something, anything.
I'm very nervous about tomorrow. I guess I'm not a people person...? It's not that I don't want to help, don't get me wrong, I'm quite excited about that aspect of it. But I'm nervous I'll have to say no to allowing some little girl out there two dolls instead of just one. How could I?
This entry took a lot longer to unravel into words than I expected, and I'm not overly happy with it.
It will have to do.
