...Meanwhile, over on
GrrlScientist's blog, the subject is raised: Do marketing people think women are such stupid ninnies that they need inviting pink packaging and nonsensical advice along with their feminine hygiene products?
I paraphrase, of course. GrrlScientist is quite eloquent, and quite annoyed.
Anne Waldman once read a review that claimed women poets essentially wrote about their periods. So, she decided to write a poem about periods
(MP3 LINK) for a change. Damn, but ain't it the truth though.
(As a complete aside, do check out her
Feminifesto. Powerful stuff!)
