I'm reading Fraternity Gang Rape for an anthropology class (Politics of the Body). I'm highly disturbed and a little depressed about it! Can anyone cheer me up by reassuring me that this is not normal behavior.

I'm seriously disgusted by masculinity right now, and I would rather not be.

classes, angst

I'm so sorry! That sounds awful. I'm always resentful when professors make me confront things I would just as soon not think about.

Why not have some cinnamon applesauce? That sounds more cheerful, right?

Yes! That's an excellent suggestion...but I don't have any applesauce. I shall substitute with strawberry yogurt!

I don't have any cheer to offer, but is that Lindsey Lohan in your mood icon? That face is cracking me up.

Hahaha...no. It's from a Hindi film. That's Delnaaz Paul in the movie Kal Ho Naa Ho. And you totally inadvertently just cheered me up, because now I'm imagining Lindsey Lohan as the much-abused "fat" best friend in a Bollywood movie. Lol.

You know, I had no idea what Bollywood was until skimmed through your journal in the last two days and Wikipedia-ed it. Are you on myspace? We should be friends on every social networking site. I noticed in your profile that you list Baltimore as your hometown. What's the deal? I'm a total Charm City girl. (or boy.)

Aww...yay! I'm a Bollywood prosthelitizer! If you continue reading my journal, you'll see that I write about it A LOT. Which I kind of feel bad about, because so few on my flist are Bollywood fans...but I find it excellent. I have a broader obsession with India, so it fits within that.

I'm not actually on myspace. I'm a bit of a technophobe, and had to be convinced (peer pressured...) into lj. I am on facebook, though. If you are, I could do a you-locked post telling you my real name, so we could be facebook buddies...

I'm from Baltimore (Towson, actually...) and currently go to school in DC. I still have a room in my mom's house, though (when it isn't filled with her crap)! I looove Charm City. I totally identify with its quirkiness.

As far as I know one of the frats here engage in such behavior. Instead they get together and burn things.

See, I'm fairly convinced that they don't do that here, too. But now I'm not terribly sure! Eek!
