This week, Frida asks us to contemplate things like Don't Ask, Don't Tell and the exploitation of college football players.  Hurry, boycott lying about your weight and age asap!
... and not the fun kind. When you think of adjectives to describe the President of the United States of America, I bet you five dollars "OBEDIENT" isn't one of them, right?  Right. Well, it's not like we needed ANOTHER  reason to prove that electing Michelle Bachmann as President of the United States of America is a TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE idea, but The Daily Beast's Jill Lawrence has found one all the same.  And it all starts with our word of the day: OBEDIENT.
Gente, here's your weekly list of injustices in the world that warrant your immediate attention, and your inconvenient boycott. 1. Superheroes Why: Solamente soy yo, or are you getting soooo sick of all these superhero movies with their portrayal of mujeres as helpless victimas who have to wait for a “macho hombre” to save them? Verdad? Por favor, Hollywood, can't you make something more socially conscious like a political documentary about women of Color banding together to build a non-profit organization that sells solar-powered, brown, plus-sized dolls to impoverished niñitas in third-world countries?
The right wing extremists who like to call themselves "pro-life," despite their movement's unfortunate tendency to blow up, shoot, disfigure and generally make miserable those with whom they disagree, have a new enemy. The Girl Scouts.
