Feminist Pub 14: The Bluestocking, a place for feminist chat and feminists to chat

[YonicScrewdriver]

Welcome!

This is the 14th incarnation of the Pub and is meant as a place to drop by with random thoughts and meandering chats, on feminist or other related themes. Anything you want to mull over but not necessarily start a thread about. Alternatively, flop onto the chaise lounges with some

We have a pub goat, a feminist cannon for firing at crazy sexists and a variety of drinks and snacks. And stools/bar counters at female friendly heights. And a crèche in the back somewhere

Will link the last pub in the next post!

Happy wine o'clock!

...and me, which is most unfair as I've only had 100ml of prosecco.

Happy wine o'clock indeed .

Am also drunk!

Must be something in the

Today is obviously dickheads day on MN. So much rape apologism, mansplaining and shite everywhere Good to see how many people support the BPAS call for buffer zones though, goddess forbid the bumbly klaxon goes off though!

Not drunk, but out of my mind on pain meds and Mountain Dew. All I need is a porch and some pork rinds to bring out my inner redneck

Pain meds and Mountain Dew?

Morning all. Hope the hangovers are ok today!

I am feeling a lot better today, even though I didn't sleep well. My dodgy back when pregnant is kicking in and making me miserable.

On plus side, I was in town yesterday doing some shopping and NOT happy. Felt like I could barely walk. Was walking into John Lewis and I could see that the man standing outside was about to tell me to "cheer up love" or similar. I gave him the glare but was quite disappointed he didn't as I was fully prepared to challenge any man saying that to me yesterday with, "just because I am a woman, I don't have to look happy. So you tell random
Men to smile?!"

Hangover not kicked in yet.

Bacon/mushroom toasties, anyone?

I've made coffee.

Can't stop grinning like a love sick teen. And this man is not sub. I would bet my life. Curses.

I definitely need coffee. I'm off to get one now (DS has a swimming lesson, and the pool has a cafe).

Happy birthday for tomorrow Buffy!

Oh Buffy happy birthday !!

Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
You're a reason-able feminist
Happy Birthday to you

Amazingly that works if you sing it

Happy birthday for tomorrow Buffy

I don't have a hangover cos I don't drink, but I do have a massive headache and in not sure where it's come from

Now, where's that coffee? DH was being incredibly noisy while chucking the cutlery out of the dishwasher into its drawer. Why? Seriously, why does he have that and slam doors closed that have perfectly functional handles?

I got my copy of Porter magazine in the mail yesterday. A couple of issues ago I took it's editor to task on Instagram for using Terry Richardson as a photographer in an article about Martha Stewart. She replied that "it's a complicated issue". No, it's not. The man is a pervert at best and a sexual predator at worst, and for a magazine that's clearly angling for the intelligent fashion label, that was a serious misstep.

Oh, and happy birthday Buffy! I love saggitareans

Stop me taking the cannon.

There's a poster in relationships - the thread is about snooping.

My kingdom for an edit function!
