*mail
and a biblical reference to her being godlike, commanding authorty!
*authority
me: just looking now, as an introduction on the panel, you could introduce the case study of susan boyled we could all comment on how we can read garden oden ideology, heteronormatviity into her treament and draw on the quotes from the essay
165786: good idea
yes, start off with her and then relate it to the garden of eden and vileness of makeovers in general
I'll find some good trinny stuff
Ieva's boyfriend knows Trinny!!

me: We should def say something about how they are all critising her forhaving a makeover, its like they want to keep her as this objet of disgustion, keep her abjected, so we can all look at her and feel better about ourselves!!
165786: exactly
to 'preserve her unique looks'
me: which we have classified as ugly
and 'virgin' is batted about as a dirty word
165786: 'they' not us
me: we

165786: Ha frickin ha-that's actually quite funny
aklthough the pagans don't think so!
me: The stunt was one of many in the series' campaign to "give the great British public a more stylish future". Others included kitting out every woman in an entire town with a properly fitted bra, going down the red carpet wearing a giant pair of fake breasts, and transforming Susannah into a 70-year-old woman.
165786: He's just said 'personally i think the wilmington man was female orriginally anyway'!!
165786: why do you think they put shape on the two big sticks?
I can see why they have shaped the ankles and hips but not why the sticks
Sent at 19:47 on Monday
me: i think they were always there
165786: no, look on the phot-the sticks seem to have had flowers or bells or something added to them
probably to make them less phallic and a bit girly
i've popped it on the blog
me: oh yeah, its probably a pole for her to dance around
shes wearing shin pads too
165786: ha-that's to make them look more shapely
to make her ankles look more slender
165786: funnliy enough, it seems even easier to organise this presentation remotely than when we are together!! not the talking bit but by using the blog and this chat thing we can almost see how each others mind is working
me: it digital infomation, much more efficient, don't have to worry about that social interaction business
165786: exactly
!
me: it dead at work now so ts a perfect time to do Critical theory stuff
165786: great
me: interestingly my colleague spends his evenings on facebook at
165786: i think i am starting to feel the structure coming on-do you?
he he

me: chat, so he's doing a similar thing
165786: should we leave this last sentence in when we paste this to the blog?!!

me: ... youre masculine lines!!

165786: such crap

me: You dont, you should just kill yourself

165786: or buy a new body
me: thts rank, i'm going t lift quotes out of this
165786: or really expensive clothes so the men dont notice my unfeminine body
