I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Spike's Bitches 31: We're Motivated Go-getters.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Mmm...interesting. Women went through hunger strikes and were imprisoned and force fed just so other women could choose not to vote.

Exactly.

Although, the retail suggestion is about shopping. ANd I love shopping.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

And it wasn't (completely) a smart ass suggestion, Aimee. There has been a major change in the way people buy, sell, and market things, and it's not all Wal-Mart/Target-ization

I predict that it would be hard to limit yourself to 2500 words on e-tailing. But maybe that's good.

Anyone else flash on regular "what Christopher did to Owen's hair" posts over the next fifteen years?

Now I want them all to be archived.

Also, you get extra interview points for interviewing Sail's daughter.

Now tagless for your comfort.

after that it'll be "what Owen did to Owen's hair."

I'm ready to start letting him cut his own. I think he might do a better job.

Alas, I don't think I can ask a good question about roller derby to warrant 2500 words.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Is roller derby just another way women are sexualized for men's enjoyment or is it a way for women to empower themselves through sport?

On the early days of the suffrage movement, you could explore how the Civil War slowed or even stopped its progress. The movement was really split at that time between continuing to fight for women's right to vote and abolition.

Hmm - but you could argue that the abolitionist movement advanced women's rights too. Women insisted on speaking and being part of it and ultimately won that right.

You could ask that about any women's sport, couldn't you? Depressing thought.
