stormkeeper_lovedoris: (Listen Up)
I just got the latest issue of my favorite magazine, Bitch: Feminist Response to Pop Culture. Towards the end of the issue, there's an article on Jem! I haven't had time to do much more than skim the article, but the gist of it seems to be that while Jem had some good things for girls (strong female role models, lots o' girls working together) it also had some negatives (the good girl/bad girl dichotomy as seen with Jem and the Holograms vs the Misfits). The real bummer is that the article doesn't spend any quality time on the Misfits at all. They are mentioned but no analysis of the band is given at all. Interestingly, the writer points out that the show lacked good male role models.

One other thing. Bitch operates on a shoe-string budget and is always looking for ways to stay afloat They now have a partnership with Good Search, which is a search engine just like google, but the difference is that every time you use Good Search, they will donate a penny to Bitch, if you specify them as your charity. Doesn't sound like a lot of cash? True, but if 1,000 people do 2 searches a day, that's $7,200 for Bitch -- a ton of money for a cash-strapped non-profit. The site has already raised $230 bucks for Bitch - not bad. Just go there and select Bitch as your charity, and search away! You only need to select it once.
