How come the most lucrative endorsement deals go to the best-performing male athletes and the best-looking female ones?

I've wondered about this one for a while...

Why is doing anything "like a girl" a bad thing - even for a girl?

It all started with a laugh

When I picked up this book, I read the first couple of questions and thought "Hmm, interesting." Then I got to the third question

Why isn't there a tacky restuarant chain called Peckers?

and realized that this was a book I was going to need to take home with me.

Introducing another element to the blog

Before I went away to Pennsylvania, on one of my many trips to the bookstore, I picked up a handy little copy of a book called "I'm Not a Feminist, But..." by Adele Lang and Susi Rajah.  I enjoy handy little books quite a bit.  Especially this one.

This book is filled with all kinds of thought-provoking questions.  Poor Dante had to endure me as I talked about how pleased I was with this little book. I told him of how I wished that I could give everyone a copy, or reproduce the whole book in my blog. Unfortunately, I can't do that.

What I propose to do is put up one of the questions occasionally. I would hope that some of you out there would have some response to some of them. I might post thoughts on them if I feel moved at the time of posting.

Buy the book. It's very cheap at the current price. I do plan on buying a couple more copies and giving them to a few people in my life. Why not? Books make a great gift.
