Pole dancing
I do it and I teach it and I'm prepared to defend it to people who call us sluts and say that we're only doing it for attention. I also strongly disagree with people who think that we're doing it for a twisted female empowerment.

Some people just do things because they're fun. I'm one of those people.

fair enough
I should be busy, but am having motivation issues

I'm super motivated
Not towards work, but towards cupcakery shenanigans. We stalked the cupcake place on Saturday and it was a bit rubbish, so we're going to pwn them. I just need to do a dickload of research now to try and work out potential costs and profits and all that shiznit so the bank don't laugh at me when I ask for money.

6. 10 pole studios
7. PROFIT
8. Yacht.

Awesome
I've only seen them at Leeds, although they were brilliant. I just hope they don't play all their new stuff, it kind of blows.

If you gaz me your number I'll text you when I get there and see if we're nearby

Their new stuff is shit, but they've started playing Cave live which is fucking fantastic
I've barely listened to Inquisition or whatever the new one's called. Before this would be unthinkable, I used to know all of their studio tracks in order.

Surely the slut / female empowerment element is only an issue
if you're taking your clothes off at the same time?
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 16:08, Reply)
yeah I don't do that, although we do have to do it in shorts and a vest
because you need the skin of your arms and legs, although it's not necessary to do it in thigh high leathers or massive plastic shoes and a tiny glittery bikini.

Some women say they're doing it because it's empowering, but that's silly. If you're doing something for a man, even if it is to 'teach him a lesson' then that's not feminism. Feminism is about doing what you want.
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 16:11, Reply)
Yeah, but you could go jogging in shorts and a vest, and nobody would call you a slut
As for empowerment, the only "lesson" you're going to teach a man that way is a lesson in what your tits look like.
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 16:15, Reply)
exactly, men want to see the boobs so you're not teaching them anything by showing them your boobs
I do think that if men are silly enough to pay a woman just to flash at them then the woman should feel free to take that money.

Not really
Look at Dita von Teese - takes her clothes off for money and I doubt she's widely considered a slag.

Bit of a butterface though.

naa, I quite like her face
on another note: my mate's new gf looks quite a lot like Zooey Deschanel. I only realised while watching Almost Famous the other day.

He's a lucky chap.

Also, Almost Famous is fantastic.

Almost Famous is excellent. It is one of my very favourite films.

I want equality for the sexes
Does that make me a feminist? Because there are some instances where it's men who are treated less fairly on account of being men (think how fathers are treated in child custody battles).
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 16:31, Reply)
I can't decide
I agree with feminism to the point that we should get equal pay and opportunities, but feminism has ruined chivalry. Women need to realise that they're not as physically strong as men, so they can't do exactly the same things, like women in the army for example.

I agree with the custody thing, the mother shouldn't always get first refusal and the odds shouldn't be stacked against fathers who want to take an active role in their kids' lives.

Whilst I don't mind girls farting and belching
I'd much prefer if they didn't, and did a small curtsy and blush after I hold the door open for them.

Mind you, there's something to be said for a girl who's forward enough to demand a damn good fucking.
the 'something to be said' is it doesn't fucking happen...

I went out with a girl last week who, in the restaurant,
loudly declared "I'm so full I'm going to have to go for a shit before the next course". I visibly recoiled.

She also told stories of the time she got locked out and had a shit in the front yard and blamed the dog. She was then getting her tits out at the table. I actually left early because of her.
