Sarah Palin — A Zombie Feminist of the RNC!!

The OTHER Maria

Finally, someone else who understands that Palin desperately wants to eat my brains!!

Rebecca Traister at Salon has a great article up on this topsy turvy election, where she dissects the significance of Palin’s gender, and bemoans the lack o’ pants on the Democrats’ part for not being willing to take up the mantle of feminism.

Dear DNC –

Your ass is showing. A lot. Just wanted to let you know!

A concerned fan,

Me

Dear RNC –

YOU CAN’T TRICK ME!

Sincerely,

Me

Being a feminist does not mean that I support any woman for any choice she makes just on the basis of her gender. I support her right to make those choices, but I reserve the right to disagree. Maybe the good ol’ boys network doesn’t understand this because the patriarchy is all about supporting people’s race and gender and class and what-not, rather than what they are actually saying or doing.

So I can decide not to think Sarah Palin will be a good vice president and not be a hypocrite for calling myself a feminist. Thanks for posting the link to this article; I feel like now I can articulate it if this comes up in offline life!
