  1. Well, that was like the major bummer of the day! :--) But as you say, way important! Thanks for helping to promulgate it.

  4. rhapsody - Haha, I know! But more and more recently, I've begun to realize how the odds really are stacked against women, at least in the US. We are not considered a minority, and we often don't band together, and so we let people take the power away from us.

    Kailana - I don't think I get that channel, either, but the movie also plays in select theaters, so maybe you can get to one!

    Zibilee - Maybe your daughter will be a Congresswoman one day :-)

  5. Thanks so much for sharing this! This is the status quo in a lot of countries. All those unreal women parading about and giving an impression that your body is your asset, it's sick. I don't have an issue with women embracing their sexuality, in fact i love it, but what we see on tv isn't the way to do it, and that needs to be clear to the kids.

  7. This is brilliant and I hope they release it on DVD. Would love to show it to our middle school.
