Pretty Terrible

Pop Culture Criticism by Natalie Luhrs

Links Roundup 07/15/16

Pretty Terrible Links Roundup

Re-entry from Readercon has been rough this year: lots of catching up to do at work and I’ve got a delightful case of con crud so everything is taking twice as long as it really should.  So there’s a handful of links from me and then the rest are reader submissions (yay, reader submissions!).

  • Inside Planned Parenthood’s Push For Gender-Neutral Language
  • How one man repopulated a rare butterfly species in his backyard
  • What Do You See When You Look at This Cover?
  • Too Old for Sex? Not at This Nursing Home

Reader Submissions

  • From Lee:
    • “The Best Revenge is Your Paper”: Notes on Women’s Work: “It is about dating and relationships as women’s work, and it becomes a story about everything.”
    • Hunger Makes Me: “It made me cry, and also made me mad, and made we want to want things.”
  • From Lilysea:
    • If We Wrote Men Like We Write Women
    • Hairyography
    • Makeup turns a young woman into an old punk-rock man
    • Are gendered toys harming childhood development?
    • NYC is introducing free tampons, pads, and sanitary napkins at public schools, homeless shelters, and correctional facilities.
