Wilde and Uncensored
Have you read this yet?
A new uncensored edition of Oscar Wilde's Dorian Gray has been released.
What I find particularly amusing is the reasoning behind the censoring in the first place - the editor "Decid[ed] that the novel as it stood contained "a number of things which an innocent woman would make an exception to"..."
While it really annoys me that women are being used as an excuse by men, it also makes me laugh. Because I imagine if anyone had actually asked a woman about it, the conversation would have gone something like this:
Male Editor: Would you be willing to read this piece of slash fiction?
Woman: Slash? I love slash! Gimme!
Male Editor: Dammit. You're supposed to be repulsed. The homoerotic subtext is right out in the open.
Woman: Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Hand it over NOW!
Male Editor: Well, no, I'm sorry. You'll have to wait until something called The Internet removes the editor-as-gatekeeper model and makes slash available to all.
Woman: Dammit.

I write like...
I ran a chapter of mine through this analyzer and got this result:
I'm sort of ... stunned.
Especially because it was Captain Devlin's Captive, not Vampire Close.
So then I ran a chapter from a non-fiction book I'm working on
***SQUEE***
I could only hope to write like him. That would be so cool.
So, if you try it, let me know in the comments what you get!!!

Women - Know Your Place
Scarily enough, there really was a time when people truly believed that too much education would drive a female insane.

Tech Support Barbie
I worked tech support once. Briefly.
Nobody dressed like that.
And that perfect hair is gone after the first customer call. :)
By the way, although I like the message that a girl can be smart and pretty at the same time, I do object to that old glasses = intelligence coding.
Yes, this is a real Barbie doll. I got the pic from the BBC. If you can't trust them, whom can you trust?
