Things We Saw Today: Little Michonne

by Susana Polo | 5:01 pm, March 28th, 2013

When I was this kid’s age, I never would have been able to sit through an episode of The Walking Dead. Hell, I’m an adult and I haven’t made it through the whole first episode. Props to her. (Fashionably Geek)

1946 Walt Disney Menstruation Animation Tells Us We’re Ok Just The Way We Are

by Jill Pantozzi | 4:01 pm, November 17th, 2012

No, this video from 1946 isn’t perfect as far as feminism goes but I have to say, I’m surprised to find it so…not 1946? Though I guess I’m even more surprised Walt Disney Productions made a video about our periods at all.

Kangaroos Have Three Vaginas, So Here Is How That Works

by Jamie Frevele | 4:21 pm, April 17th, 2012

What’s that you say? Oh yes, it’s true — marsupials, including the most popular one, the kangaroo, are equipped with a total of three vaginas. Three vaginas, two uteri, all there to serve their own joey-bearing purpose. For one thing, can you imagine their periods, you guys? Crazy! For another, imagine how hilariously scared all those anti-choice lawmakers would be when they got a load of this information if it applied to human vaginas! We’d probably have to stop being women altogether! Because it’s just too many vaginas for people to understand!

Frank Cho Responds to Allegations That He Drew A Vagina on Avengers vs. X-Men #0

by Susana Polo | 4:20 pm, December 15th, 2011

After showcasing the official cover art for Avengers vs. X-Men #0, Bleeding Cool says they received this comment from a “prominent comic book writer:”

Has anyone pointed out that Frank Cho drew the Scarlet Witch and Jean Grey (or whoever that is) flying out of a vagina on this cover?

(It’s actually Hope.)

Anyway, Cho had pretty much the best response.

Stephen Colbert Discovers He Has Two Vaginas

by Susana Polo | 11:54 am, July 26th, 2011

We picked up on Summers Eve‘s array of douching supplies last week, and it’s even more mind-blowingly awful advertising that does its best to simultaneously say “You should feel empowered because you have a vagina,” and “vaginas are so icky that we can’t even say the word out loud and lord girl will you clean up down there I mean gross.”

We were stunned absolutely speechless and may never be able to look at hand puppetry the same way. Stephen Colbert, on the other hand, doesn’t “think it’s fair that women have these commercials marketed at them telling them that their bodies aren’t good enough the way they are. This completely ignores men and [their] deeply troubling genitals.” We invite you to experience the result, based on Summers Eve’s next series of commercials featuring hand puppets.

You know, where you make a lose fist and wiggle your thumb Señor Wences style?… except vertical… so it represents vaginas. The vaginas of three different women.

Haha, did I say women? I meant racial stereotypes.

Sex Ed, As Taught By H.P. Lovecraft

by Susana Polo | 5:56 pm, April 27th, 2011

Give Late Bloomer, written by Clay McLeod Chapman and directed by Craig Macneill, three or four minutes to present itself as a loving interpretation of how H.P. Lovecraft would write a story about being severely embarrassed in your seventh grade health class. About four minutes in the film does get around to the male reproductive organs and proves itself a treatise on the illicit unknown loveliness of all human bodies and how that can seem like a terrifying abyss of madness in your seventh grade health class, not a metatextually weird joke about how women’s bodies are evil and unnatural. I swear, it gets there.

YES, it is probably not safe for work as a whole concept, though the dialogue doesn’t get any worse than the word “clitoral” I think. Just put on some headphones.
