Nacey SMASH!

Feminist rage? Let me show you it!

Someone thinking they're being snarky and cool about post-war women, puts a coffee pot into the hands of our dear Rosie the Riveter.

Hence, I want to break shit. Somehow, I don't think the 'artist' realises the implications of their piece. D:<

ETA: My brother cracks my shit up! He said, "HAhaha! Why didn't they just get a bag of sand and stuff it in your vagina?!" He was laughing at them, not me, by the way. I can see the funny in my hair-trigger feminist rage, thankfully. LOL!

Well, most people have on pillows things they treasure or love. You snuggle and feel comfort with that pillow as well as making a statement. Why would one want a pillow that has something on it that makes them mad? The psychology is all wrong. I get it, I get the point they're trying to make but it's really mixed up and badly executed.

Plus the implication that being an admin or a secretary is something less than being a riveter... work is work, right? Admin and secretarial work is really tough. They deserve as much respect as any other woman. It's like maligning a woman for being a mother.

It's not maligning the secretary, it's maligning the society that gives her no choices other than secretary.

It is an odd choice of item to put it on- maybe it could be delivered to me while I am asleep to motivate me to get up and take action when I wake up?
