For this months thats what she said, were discussing whether or not feminists can wear sexy clothing.
Wevelinked to our full discussion here,and included the TL;DR below…
Georgina:OK LADIEZ.
Can feminists wear sexy clothes?
Its wonderful to see but doesnt this negate their attempts at equality?
But when women wear less clothing, it gives misogynists the ammunition they want.
Sexuality is used against women, especially when it comes to physical appearance.
Georgina:Yeah, so thats the male gaze discussion, which is very true.
We can control how we present ourselves, but not how were looked at.
Whats empowering to us can still be used against us.
Cara:Im sure I do judge women, but I actively make a run at stop.
Do we want to make that our problem?
Georgina:Well, we have to, because men still hold the powerful positions.
They are still the majority of lawmakers and CEOs and managers.
So regardless, what they think affects us at work and in life.

Today I learned that scamming men is easy.
(He dumped her two days later, by the way.)
First of all, theres already a word for that, its called catfishing.
Second of all, lets not pretend this phenomenon is somehow gender-specific.
Luckily, we found another, more wholesome interpretation of the word.
They make us want to take up fishing and wear padded vests with lots of pockets.
Lets ignore all the other sexist definitions of the word, and stick with fishy earrings instead.
How to use it in a sentence:
What do you think of Byte Me?
