Maybe the "male gaze" should be renamed the "slightly but not entirely male-centric media gaze."<br /><br />J: I'm always drawn to the romance of "starting over" as well--like, maybe this time around I'll be perfect. But in truth I think whatever you've done so far with your life--the accomplishments and the mistakes--are fuel for what comes next. There's very little knowledge that I wish I didn't have. But yeah, I hear you on the bio clock.

i would totally f**k Jamie. or at least...tru dat!<br /><br />i would totally f**k Jamie. or at least make out with her. not only is Jamie hot, but smart, and that combination makes my heart aflutter! smart ppl are hot! oh, and she's an incredibly talented poet. her hotness just keeps getting hotter.<br /><br />in my world you're still a youngin. so you have nothing to worry about. ha! as if. <br /><br />as i get older, i don't necessarily worry about my looks, but that's because i was blessed by the gene goddesses, but i worry about what i'm doing with my life. like why am i not like Katy Perry? that girl figured out at 15 that she wanted to get into music, so she pursued it and boom, she's a pop star. why the hell didn't i figure out what i wanted to do at 15 and pursue it? so i feel i'm too old to start over, but i feel i need to start over to be happy in this life. catch 22. but at the same time i want to settle down and have babies. so how do i do both? start over and have babies?<br /><br />i love being a woman even if that means that i'm not hot because i get older. but i am very jealous that men can have children at any age. because then i feel i would have more time ... tik tok ... stupid biological clock.Jesihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11756949403005593547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13726206.post-60246233871772903252011-02-21T07:49:08.699-08:002011-02-21T07:49:08.699-08:00Getting thin is ethno-specific?

As a gay...Getting thin is ethno-specific? D'Oh!<br />As a gay man, I'd like to consider myself more aware of and sensitive to the male gaze than my heterosexual counterparts.<br />But I'm also conflicted over my own hypocrisy. As Entertainment/Media Whores we are only too willing to worship Eye Candy Goddesses. There is something twisted about men viewing size zero women as role modes for fitness and physique (the women on "Friends," the Spice Girls, the cast of "Desperate Housewives," etc. etc.)<br />- how inspired am I when, on 'glee,' Quin gets to put her cheerleader uniform back on, post-pregnancy, and regain her power?<br />Did I just shove my foot up my mouth?Peter Varvelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04521795044554538286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13726206.post-52267088083358352182011-02-20T17:21:34.680-08:002011-02-20T17:21:34.680-08:00I tracked down where I read it just to be certain ...I tracked down where I read it just to be certain I wasn't delusional:<br /><br />http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2008/feb/13/familyandrelationships1<br /><br />I don't usually keep up with this sort of thing but her name caught my eye since I've been a fan of her work since before Female Perversions came out.

That makes me inclined to think she's got a leg up on most, not that your DJs deserve the effort of refuting. <br /><br />I was thinking of The Beauty Myth when I read Sizzle's post. I actually have a video of my parents and I discussing it over fondue, sometimes heatedly, when I was home from college.Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06168243108016358137noreply@blogger.com
