Christmas Sex Tips 101

December 20, 2012 by thevagenda

Ah, Christmas sex tips – aren’t they just in a special little category all of their own? Interspersed with the old stuff they’ve been peddling all year round (except now with added gingerbread and/or Santa hats) is a huge variety of festive puns, whether you’re referring euphemistically to his ‘stocking’, bringing back the 69 because […]

Christmas Sexism

December 20, 2012 by thevagenda

Christmas gift buying can be hard. Accepted. And not just because the whole nation is simultaneously trying to plunder the entire high street, but because, suddenly, you find yourself having to define your relationship to someone in the form of a purchaseable, physical object.* You are faced with the challenge of finding something personal, that […]

Keeping up with the Kirsties

December 19, 2012 by thevagenda

      Christmas these days seems to be all about the ads. What latest witchcraft have John Lewis employed to jerk upon our tear-ducts like the evil scarf-peddling puppet-masters that they are? Who’s that dancing in the M&S ad, a smile on their face as they quietly survey the ruin of their career and […]

Science 4 Girls

December 18, 2012 by thevagenda

You may or may not remember the European Commission’s atrocious ‘Science, It’s A Girl Thing’ promo video from a few months back. Progressive it was not. Now, a group of Bristol Uni Psychologists have fought back with their own spoof video in response to what they called a ‘demeaning’ attempt on the part of the […]

Dr Who & The Curse of the Companions

December 17, 2012 by thevagenda

    NOTE: This is only about the new Doctor Who- I know, I know, hardline fans will probably dismiss this out of hand. However, feel free to tell me in the comments how sexist (or not) old Dr Who is- I’m genuinely curious. Spoiler alerts, etc.  “Wait a second;” I thought as I sat […]

In Pursuit of Babies

December 14, 2012 by thevagenda

Starting from when I was a teenager, and up until I couldn’t actually do it, I thought it was really easy to get pregnant. My sex ed classes were well taught and thorough, but their goal was to educate us on the importance of protection – and boy, did they ever. The way they went on […]

Unemployment Getting You Down? Become a Camera Girl!

December 13, 2012 by thevagenda

  Anti cuts protesters have been saying for months and months that the proposed budget cuts have hit women harder than men. Us ladies, you see, are more likely to be in those specific lady jobs like nursing, caring and teaching that are far too unimportant for anyone with a penis to bother with.   […]

Worst Magazine Cover Ever? (NSFW)

December 11, 2012 by thevagenda

The fashion industry’s bizarro fascination with dead looking women continues with French fash mag L’Officiel Homme’s latest cover, showing Benicio Del Toro holding a naked lady who could well be his latest victim.
