Feminists in the Kitchen: Finally, someone admits the truth

Finally, someone admits the truth

The truth about equal pay.

See, now, not the best way to start off the day, running across an article like this:

The reason for the opposition to EQUAL PAY

I'm trying to calmly and logically order my thoughts on this so I can write a proper analysis, but I'm getting worked up into a bra-burning frenzy right now, sitting at my workstation.

About the author

I love cooking, I love philosophy, and I love fixing things. You will find a little of all of those things here.

Whilst pulling weeds out of the garden or whipping up a batch of fresh pesto, I like to ponder politics, religion, sociology, and the effects of urban living on the human psyche, especially to those who grace my kitchen. And I am rationally (and humorously) outspoken about it, so beware: my posts about pesto and weed pulling may be littered with social commentary. While pointing out the ironies and satirical aspects of it all... And I am an ardent feminist. I hope that doesn't immediately make any of my viewers automatically want to leave this site.

I am not a stereotype of a feminist: I am not interested in any form or exhibition or aggrandizement of victimhood or self-pity. I can change a tire and oh so much more, and I want more women to foster their convictions, strength and independence for the good of all, and to be better at loving. Make pesto and pull weeds if you like, go solo, or stay at home and have kids, or take the boardroom approach if you prefer. Either way, I think the world needs more strong people. Of all varieties. I still love and respect men though, and you will see me touting the awesomest ones I know here.

And though I am not a true "prepper", I definitely have a proclivity towards being prepared for the worst, which I foresee in my lifetime, and I will share my learnings with you here.

I think I'd call myself a "rebellious, creative, critical thinking consequentialist capitalist community benefactor." Hows that for a definition? Too pretentious?
