Welcome Everyone

Welcome to my adventure... Hopefully you'll enjoy reading about my adventures half as much as I enjoy being in them. Here you'll find my blogs about everything I might have a conversation about. So if something doesn't seem to interest you skip to something that does. I am pretty random and eclectic so I am sure there is something for everyone.

Thoughts on Women Must Face Daily


I pulled the following comments from a FB thread because I felt like they adequately expressed some sources for the angst I feel towards myself and the media for the way woman are treated.
Ya the video game industry is badly in need of some portrayals of normal females. Real clothing, pink not necessary and how about some character depth? There are a lot of brilliant women out there to take examples from. 
Anime is similar eh? Some great female characters-and here some have good depth, but they are almost always sexualized somehow. I'm realizing more and more the plight of women in our time. The media, porn and social norms have still stacked things against them because men (like me) and often women don't realize all the stereotypes engrained into how we perceive females.

Dear artists, media people, humanity,
   please give us some better and more realistic portrayals of woman. Please give us humans instead of sex symbols. Please help us overcome the inequality.

Dear mothers, grandmas, aunts, friends, sisters,
    I'm sorry.
