“People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.” — Thich Nhat Hanh

Is the suffering more precious than the love you seek?

Friday, Nov. 4

At 3:01 p.m. police responded to a report that a blue car parked in the lower lot of Temple Beth Elohim was bouncing and had fogged windows. The investigating officer reported that two people were talking inside the car.

So that's what they're doing every Thursday night.

Thursday, Sept. 8

At 9:08 p.m. a Davis Road resident complained of a man in the area screaming. Police responded and determined that the screaming came from a Bible Reading that got a little too loud. Police asked the worshipers to shut their doors and quiet down.

Don’t Fear The Dowager: A Valentine to Maturity

An adolescent boy’s bed sheet semen’s worth of ink has been spilled lately about men acting too much like boys. But the trend of reverse-striving has crossed over: adult women are acting more and more like little girls, and it’s really starting to get on my nerves.

There’s so much ukulele playing now, it’s deafening. So much cotton candy, so many bunny rabbits and whoopie pies and craft fairs and kitten ephemera, and grown women wearing converse sneakers with mini skirts. So many fucking birds.

Girls get tattoos that they will never be able to grow into. Women with master’s degrees who are searching for life partners, list “rainbows, Girl Scout cookies, and laughing a lot” under “interests, on their Match.com profiles. When I shop now, I have to make sure that garments I think are dresses, are not actually rompers.

If you don’t know what rompers are, they’re shirts attached to shorts, and they used to be called onesies.

The closest thing Madonna ever did to infantilizing herself was for her 1992 Steven Meisel Vanity Fair cover. Today, KATY PERRY IS POSING IN HEADGEAR.

And despite the facade of cliqueishness, and female friendship, and the Romy & Michelle’ness of gal-pal fun times, let’s be real. We all know these manic pixie Muppet Babies are really just in it for the peen. And instead of acting like a woman who might remind a skittish bro more of his teacher or his mother, we’re going for the pubeless, twee, Anime-eyed version of whatever dream girl we assume they want or need.

It’s like how we used to hide our interests around boys (‘I hate math! It’s so hard!’). Now, instead, we’re singing the praises of Skittles Sours instead of emulating, say, Kathleen Turner? Barbara Stanwyck? Any female lead from the pre-awkward era who stuck out her tits and didn’t talk like Rocky from the Bullwinkle cartoons? You realize the Harajuku girls who danced behind Gwen Stefani, are like “seriously, bitches?” And then they go to book club.

It’s all to the same ends—- women are trying to broadcast to men that we won’t bite their dicks off. It’s just that now, instead of lipstick, we’re wearing glittery lip gloss, or that shit you get in the drug store that tastes like Dr. Pepper.

I’m begging age-appropriate females: Read something written before you were born. Stand up straight. Make sure you own one piece of jewelry that you did not purchase on Etsy. Use capital letters in an email to the guy you want to date. Let him take you out on a date, maybe not on a walk or an Xbox session, even if you are, God help you, addicted to LA Noire. Meet your friend for wine instead of fro-yo one night. Watch a movie with no early-90’s nostalgic appeal. Bitch, you already know Clueless by heart.

Nobody’s asking you to be matronly. Laura Bush is no longer in the public eye—as I write this, she’s cheerfully douching somewhere far away, in private. You can make your own modern womanhood—there’s no need to fear the dowager.

Because the larger issue is that it is a lot easier for men —or even guys or bros—to demean us, if we’re girls. It’s much harder to bring down a woman, or to call her a moron, when she’s not in pigtails and Ring Pops. Not that his idea of you should influence your style, or your sense of self-worth. But I feel like in a way, it already sort of has?

eight notes on "boyfriend" clothing ...

Sat, 12 May 2012 07:51:11 -0400

agrammar:

… stemming, as is probably obvious, from this Decibel bit on Urban Outfitter’s “Classic Rock Boyfriend Tee.”

Just so I don’t sound nuts, let me say that I do understand what the marketing category of “boyfriend” clothes is trying to conjure: some kind of insouciant grace where you’re just so fabulous that you can throw on other people’s too-large clothing and look all casual and smashing in it. Plus maybe boyish in that one small way it’s considered feminine to be boyish. Personally, I own some roll-neck cardigans that are this close to being advertised as “great-uncle” sweaters — it’s not like I don’t get the thrust of this stuff.

Note that this insouciant grace, “boyfriend”-wise, requires you to be really thin and feminine from the get-go, because if that “boyfriend blazer” looks like it actually suits you, suddenly you’re “butch” instead. The society-approved feminine-boyish zone is awfully exclusive, body-wise — it wants you to be so small and feminine that the large men’s-clothing item actually contrasts and accentuates those qualities. (It’s also, significantly, not aimed at much of anyone above the age of 25 of so.)
