As Gloria Steinem said, you're either a feminist or a masochist: a belated 2009 review

by Furry Girl

02.15.10

2009 was good to me.  It was the year I finally started blogging, the year I stopped giving a shit about trying to be a feminist (whatever that means), the year I bought a frosting gun for decorating cupcakes, the year I actively began shooting photos of other people, the year I discovered the joy of sex with hot tubs, the year I didn't get to go on a proper vacation, and notably in my personal life, the year I engaged in a lot more sex in a submissive role.

Killing off your feminist self and nurturing your submissive self? Major upgrade, I assure you.

masochist

For 2010, I'm aiming to kick the recession's ass via my great new strapon site, get back to doing pay-per-minute web cam shows more often, read more physical books instead of so many blogs and web sites, hopefully present on how to run a porn site at the Desiree Alliance conference, and, as always, find more awesome people that give me a girl-boner. It's already been off to a good start with an epic voyage to Antarctica (a post on that coming soon), so I need to work hard to keep raising my own bar and being the militant awesome-ist I pledged to be last year.

  4. It'll be interesting to follow your blog. I embrace both my feminism and my orientation as a sexual submissive. I don't find them contradicting each other.

    I'm very interest in your work especially because as a newly single woman I'm seriously distressed that the only way women seem to be comfortable is with bald vulvas or something close to it. It's not like I even really *like* pubic hair, but, ffs, it almost looks abnormal now to have hair! Gahhh. Makes me really angry.

    Anyway, glad I found you on these here www.

You must use a name/handle other than anonymous or asdf because I am tired of giving space to detractors who are too lazy to pick a fake handle and too scared to use a real one. I no longer publish comments bitching at me about how feminism is the greatest thing ever. And I may not publish your comment if I have already addressed that specific issue several times already. Read my responses to other comments before asking a new question. Finally, if your comment hinges on an obvious logical fallacy, I might not publish that, either, except to make fun of you.
