/thread drift/

remind, for you and other dial-up babblers, if there's ever a Youtube that you absolutely want to see, here's a way to download it (slowly) to your desktop and view it at your leisure:

1. Download VLC Player - it's free and it will play just about any video or audio file around.

2. When someone gives you a Youtube url, just go here:

YouTube Video Download Tool

and paste the url into the box. That will allow you to download the video - sure it may take a couple hours, but you can still babble while it works in the background.

3. When it's finished, it will create a file which is always called get-video.htm. You have to change the filename to anythingyoulike.flv (the flv is essential) - and then you can play it back using the VLC player.

The video was a first draft for a project that I am working on that was in part inspired by this nytimes article: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/16/weekinreview/16zern.htm

As a purported third-wave or post-feminist, I tended to have trouble identifying with socialist feminism and identity politics, it had done its job and does not allow for multiplicity and difference, but arguing that all women are united in their being women. This Hillary Clinton thing has brought to light sexism that I never thought existed, it shows us that the proverbial fight is not over, women are still either ball-busters or young ingenues. Sexism is not as dead as the media has lead us to believe thus feminism needs to be rethought...
