Bonnie Burton recently wrote a column for SFX, focusing on the Mean Girls syndrome attacking those geek girls who're brave enough to dress up and cosplay at the various conventions. I don't understand the theory of dragging down other women to make yourself feel ... better? Stronger? More confident? Not to mention the whole 'missing the point' about Slave Leia.
Also, quotes from Kat Hill and Adrienne Curry! Three of my favourite ladies in one article.
"The world belongs however, to those can who look at the glass and say: "What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was bigger!" - Terry Pratchett, The Truth'
