Closing song: Curtis Mayfield — “Superfly”
I don’t know what it was like in American Christian Culture but I remember growing up, the verses in Deuteronomy against cross dressing wasn’t used to condemn transvestites as much as it was used to argue that women shouldn’t wear pants, especially not in church!
Women shouldn’t wear pants! Wow! Again with expecting the supposed weaker sex the brave cold legs while the supposed stronger ones don’t have to worry about it.
Right? Also the irony that men were wearing what was basically dresses when Deuteronomy was written completely escaped them! Here is someone who totally agrees with you, how Christian culture expects more self discipline from babies than they do from grown men: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/lovejoyfeminism/2012/02/who-are-the-real-babies-house-proofing-and-modesty.html
Wow! That’s exactly what I said!
I was never allowed to wear pants to church. Once in college I did and my mom was so angry her face was red all night.
Simone – have you seen this Behind the Candelabra review on The Onion? You can use this to tell your Grandma about it! http://www.theonion.com/articles/hbo-film-reveals-liberace-was-good-friends-with-ga,32778/
“the film, which shows Liberace, famed pianist and lover of figure-skating champ Sonja Henie, developing friendships with many homosexuals, whom he often invited to his home for dinner, swimming, and conversation. “He was apparently quite progressive in that regard and did not discriminate against gay men in the slightest, despite being a famous ladies’ man. In fact, he would even bestow numerous gifts upon his gay male friends as a token of his friendship.” “
Onion, you’ve done it again!
SWOON! ONION! <3 <3 <3
I was laughing when Stephy was saying that she calls her husband different, weird names to see how he reacts. I do the same thing to my husband. I think it’s hilarious that Simone calls her sister bunion, so I started calling my husband bunion and he absolutely hates it. It’s hilarious. Thanks for the clever names! I’ll have to try the things to make him feel good!
P.S. So happy you two are back!
I love that you were inspired to call your husband Bunion! We will need more updates on his reactions as your schedule allows!
