No, I haven’t flipped my lid — OK, maybe I have, because the last thing I needed was another online time-suck. But no, I haven’t stopped blaming the kyriarchy in favor of blaming myself (well, not much anyway, but today was a hard day — or rather, tonight was an unfuckingbelievably hard night — and I bear some responsibility for that).
Ahem.
I am pleased and slightly horrified to introduce the new feminist group blog I Blame The Mother. Founded by the fabulous Kate from Rebel Raising (who still owes me a post), IBTM is where several feisty feminist mothers (and step-mothers-to-be), including yours truly, blog about all the ways media blames everything — from obesity to body dysphoria to the wage gap and so on and so forth ad nauseum — on mothers.
I expect it to be a riot. In one sense of the word or another. Anyway, we only have a couple posts up so far, but do click on over and share the horror.
