Ah, the glamour of air travel.

Frumpy, tired passengers wearing wrinkled clothes. Screaming babies and restless kids. Overworked flight attendants. Long security lines where you get to TAKE YOUR SHOES OFF and walk barefoot on the filthy floor! Financially struggling airlines that levy extra charges for everything.

Sexism, Facebook Edition: Is This Image Truly Harmless?

This lovely graffiti was forwarded to my Facebook account countless times. I deleted most of them. It’s one of several notorious Facebook chain letters and spam messages that just keep endlessly circulating in that contained little universe.

When a guy spams his entire friend list with this, I can take it as another proof that men are childish.

I received this from a reader via email.

I am rarely left speechless, but this photo did it.

Just confusion, and lots of different words swirling around in my head.

Progress. Freedom. Feminism. Body image.

Chronic back pain.

Thanks, Noa. :)

“The things women have to put up with. Most husbands, nowadays, have stopped beating their wives, but what can be more agonizing to a sensitive soul than a man’s boredom at meals”.

Wealthy Men, Sexy Girls

Posted April 18th, 2008 by MomGrind

ad.gif The AdSense ads on my site are an endless source of amusement and awe. This one in particular caused me to do a double take. The website, Seeking millionaires, tries to match wealthy men with young, beautiful women. The site’s homepage shows a photo of an older, wealthy-looking man and another photo, of a young, sexy woman. The text next to the man says “wealthy singles”. The text next to the woman reads “attractive singles”.

Clicking on the link “How it works” leads to a photo of another beautiful young girl who says, “I am beautiful, and I knew I did not want to work 7 days a week just to make ends meet. Through SeekingMillionaire, I was able to meet a wonderful man who also happens to be a successful multi-millionaire. If you are beautiful, why settle for less when you can live rich?”
