---In summery, that lady was a moron.--

Perhaps you should have actually learnt her name before you called her a moron (It's Catherine Deveny, by the way).

I read the same article, and I actually agreed with some of it. I think debutante balls should be more of a personal choice thing (and yes, I did mine 3 years ago), and not something that's compulsory for each school. Ours was an elective, and although at the time I didn't mind getting all dressed up, I think Deveny had a bigger issue with the idea of young women having to be 'presented'.


-But I do not feel as if I need to demand equal rights as I don’t see myself as in-equal and thus have no need to fight for it. I do not need to preach about my vagina, nor grow my arm pit hair long because yes... i think people understand about femal genitalia and similalry that if we do not shave our hair grows. -

Congratulations for not feeling inequal, lucky you. But are you aware of things like the pay different between women and men (it's 15%). Are you aware of things like that in some countries, women still can't vote. You're lucky you live where you live, where you're considered closer to 'equal' than perhaps in other parts of the world. And also, just because a woman may 'preach' about her vagina, it doesn't mean she grows her armpit hair long-that's a tad sterotypical.

Anyway, interesting regardless-thanks for a good blog.
