A short list of things that I love: my son, the dude I am married to, books, summer dresses, shiny hair, banjo music, my sisters, feminism, Sylvia Plath, dusty record stores, yoga, rainy summer evenings, coming of age movies, Frida Kahlo, history, forest animals, Wes Anderson, nostalgia, being pretentious as fuck
I am, I am, I am

may i just say that i LOVE the title of your blog . love , love . all hail Sylvia Plath. I’m always happy to know that reading is not as much of a dying art as I constantly fear
Amazing blog 🙂 followed
Lovely moment of life is really a great experience at the end of life. I am writing thesis related to this theme if any one want to know more please follow.
I wanted to thank you for your blog. I’ve followed a path from being in my early twenties and barely calling myself a feminist until now, where I’m trying to read everything I can about the white privilege I carry into my feminism. I stumbled about your blog through a post about Tuohy and really appreciate the well written feminist articles about intersectionality as well. I’ve been wrong and accidentally hurtful so many times and when I am I try to come back and read something to remind myself to keep changing. So thank you.
I want, I want, I want.
Oh, you have such a beautiful blog. It’s also really interesting to read 🙂 Best, Stella 🙂
Hi Anne,

Kind Regards,
Christine
You are a beautiful human and you have an amazing soul. I love absolutely every single word on here. You truly are magnificent. I’m so glad to know there are people like you in this world.
What do you mean by “pretentious”?
fun to read. let me see more!!
I held my breath the whole time i read this piece. I felt every moment of fear or concern. I needed to read this today to give me motivation to keep writing, to keep fighting. It’s a bleak world sometimes when trying to create change but if I can prevent any other woman from having one second like this it will be worth it.
You’re strong and amazing! These experiences are so sadly universal. Men are taught and later teach horrible things and interactional styles. With powerful voices, like yours, hopefully enough hearts and minds will be touched and the mistreatment that you and so many others experience will be a thing of the past. Thanks for sharing your stories and voice.
gud 😉
Brilliant piece… cried my eyes out a bit. Reading things! Ahhhhhhhhhh! When I think of my own life experience with men I feel sick.
So glad I came across your blog! You are so straightforward and witty! Now excuse me while I continue binging your articles…
You are the 💩! I love your blog. A million thanks to you for “staying woke” with no incentive other than the perpetuation of pure conciousness.
really you are an inspirational person….. I love your li’l son…

Sometime around April 2013 you posted an piece of writing entitled ‘How we teach our sons to rape’. I read it and it stuck with me. I would like to read it again but it’s been taken down. Is it available anywhere else?
My mind blown
Thanks for the ‘momentum of clarity’
