things i ask the internet #544
all i’ve got so far are spoken word poets throwin’ it down and people saying fuck off. which is great! and awesome! but i was still wondering: hey internet, can you recommend any interesting articles or blog posts about unwarranted fetishizing (about size, race, clothing choices, etc…)?

queenofswordsinverted asked: hey julia! last night i saw chester brown speak at quimby's and i ended up being pleasantly surprised. though the comic does contain sort of disparaging comments on the size of some of the sex workers (i imagined she's be skinnier, etc etc) he was very respectful, explaining how he worked to maintain the anonymity of the women he saw (by abstracting them somewhat) while retaining their...

hemelbeestje asked: I would love to read your thoughts about Meadham Kirchhoff collection! I wrote something myself but mostly about lolita & my own vision in regards to feminism vs fashion. It's probably unreadable but I feel something needs to be said because so many are regarding a child-like look as antifeminist while I've finally reclaimed a brightly coloured girly clothing for myself so anyway it...

baddominicana: everytime i see white hipsters w big gold jewelry i wanna slap them. they take everything from POC and soon as it lands on their pasty white bodies, it goes from “tacky, low class, scary efnic people shit” to “stylish and edgy”. fuck you. OH HEEEEEEEEEY point i was just making if you needed a reminder of the many reasons why kreayshawn sucks there are times when it sucks...

rubyshimmer: austro-hungarianempire1867-1918: i think it’s too easy to look @ that new vogue italia/meisel “ghetto” editorial and call it racist and offensive etc don’t get me wrong i can definitely see how it can be  but you don’t know if franca and steven and whoever styled that thought the black (and white) women who do that with their hair, make up, and nails are beautiful i know franca...

“What’s wrong with celebrating other cultures? Just because I made a headdress...”
– - the highlight of my messages with longlivethecrotch. i’d be lying if i said i didn’t get a slight variation of this exact same message on the dozens of other occasions i have messaged teenage girls who post photos of themselves wearing headdresses.

i get really, really tempted to publicly post the conversations i have with the assholes who tag their photos #indian, #headdress and #squaw in the hopes that i won’t have to have the same inane conversation twenty million fucking times. yes, you’re young, you’re white, you live in america, you think wearing a headdress and posting pictures of it to tumblr (with all of 5 notes...

killyrinspiration asked: You are my all-time favourite. I remember when I was a shy teenage lurker on LJ communities like thriftwhore. You were the most genuine person I had possibly ever come across on the net, and definitely the one with the most style. I was always way too shy to talk to you. Your writing is always challenging me, and it's really great that as I'm trying to build my academic career around...

lookuplookup asked: Re: Your post of the tattooed girl with the zebra, I've seen the image listed as a portrait of Mae Vandermark Patton/Miss Artorio. I'm not sure if it's actually her (the quality of the photo makes it hard to tell whether the tattoos of the woman in the photo actually match with Mae's), but it's certainly a possibility!

sonnywithano asked: Just saw that the ask box was open, and though I don't have a question, I just wanted to take this opportunity to say that your blog is far and beyond my favorite I have ever found. You post such a wonderful amalgamation of everything fashion/politics/art/life that I not only love, but have often never seen before, and your critical and respectful approach to stuff is incredibly bad ass and...
