Celebrating Women - 26 March 2004

Are you surprised that most rapacious, clawing, greedy, self-centered venture capitalists are men? I didn't think so.

Trying to find updated news on the first Eucharistic service performed by two women in Dublin - apparently it was halted after protest threats - but the only paper covering it is subscription-only and my registration didn't take. In related news, a South African Dominee notes that The Passion has female stereotypes - no! really?

Kelly Kleiman (any relation to Mark?) thinks that men dressing in drag constitutes "yet another variation on a dominant group appropriating the identity of a disempowered group for its own ends," but you know, I've seen a lot of women dress in drag too so I'm not sure about this one.

Lastly, if you feel you really must apply to work in a "breastaurant," you might want to check for hidden cameras. Sadly, the economy is that bad that tons of women will continue to choose this route.
