WTF USA?

 I'm lost for words, I'm in tears actually.

How is this possible?

How, after all the years of suffrage, sacrifice, deaths and fighting can the message still be "The only good woman is one who's barefoot, pregnant and chained to the kitchen sink."?  How the fuck does anyone get the idea that an 'unfeminine' girl, one who doesn't want armfuls of babies, or a husband, is someone who should never have been born?

I was going to unleash some rage and I just thought "Mr Fantastic has it covered, you can just eat pills and read now". Then I picked up (well loaded up) The Purity Myth. YAY I'M ALL RAGEY AGAIN! :D

Hahaha! I swear it's a sickness, this tendency to engage in things that make us angry. XD
