MMA WITH THE BOURDAIN FAMILY By Ottavia Bourdain
I guess I have to stop carrying a torch for him since I now like his wife. She’s fierce. You did good, Mr. Bourdain.
Thanks to Ben Whishaw, I now have a huge fucking crush on Keith Richards. I thought it was Mick for me. But Whishaw!Keith happened. So provocative.Ben as Keith Richards
[EIC: Thanks again plumpa!]
I’ve never met the architect Richard Rogers, but this past Yom Kippur, I stopped to pee at his house in London, and, like the Beatles post-Maharishi, I was permanently altered….

I suggest all females watch this.
*i suggest all humans watch this.
If you haven’t watched this yet, you really should.
This is a must, girls and boys.
I agree that everyone should watch this. This is one of the few videos on female representation in the media that at least tries to point out that the way females are represented has a negative effect on everyone, not just women.
I love that this`touches also on how media affects men, but wow. Stereotypes are perpetuated by television more than in reality, and they are so skewed because they have to be provocative or funny or any number of things that aren’t complete or real enough.
This affects not only women and men, but race, gays and lesbians, trans people, all people.
We all struggle against what we are supposed to be, what we are told we should be, and yet when positions in media and PR change, the image doesn’t. Because people get those positions by conforming to that image, and breaking out risks loss.
This is why it is so hard for anyone to be who they really are, because they are so busy being what other’s expect so as not to be harassed for not being what they are supposed to be.
Oh man, Geena Davis. I love her with all -y heart.
All my followers should watch this video
Everyone needs to watch this and see how harmful misrepresentation and perpetuating harmful stereotypes are not just to a minority group, but to everyone.
Only by adapting a new way of thinking, by treating everyone equally, and even eroding gender roles, can we influence our peers and perpetuate something good.
Reblogging (again?) because this is a good movie and I definitely recommend seeing the whole thing.
Very inspirational. I need to gain the courage to go be myself without fear of what limits people place on me due to my gender and weight. This makes me want to gain that courage.
