Light up, light up - as if you have a choice

1. Are you a feminist?

Hahaha, I'm going to get strung up for this.

No.

I'm just...not. And not because I want to get married and have kids and be a housewife and live in a nice house etc - that's actually my worst nightmare. Just because - it wouldn't occur to me to think of myself as oppressed for being a woman. Maybe it's because I've rarely been in any situation where it's an issue.

For the most part, if a dude was to look down at me because of my sex, I'd just laugh in his face and call him an asshole. I wouldn't stand there and try to justify why I'm equal to him because a) he wouldn't be worth it, b) we're not equal - I would clearly be superior simply because his asshattery would have just proven it and c) arguing my corner would simply give him a chance to air his caveman-like opinions.

As for the actual bit of feminism where women campaign for equal rights and go on marches etc - well, good on y'all, I say. I just...I don't know. Maybe I should get involved but I just don't care enough. If I ever felt a need to become a feminist then maybe I'd be one but right now, the whole concept just seems weirdly alien.

And besides - why go on marches etc to prove I'm equal to men when I already know I am.

2. How important are clothes/shoes/other outward apparell to you?

On me or on other people? Um. I wear whatever I want really and don't give a damn what anyone else thinks. Having said that, I don't buy clothes from cheap shops. Most of my stuff is from Gap or Tommy Hilfiger or something, which I get when I'm in America. It's not something I really think about - I live in jeans. The fact that they're good jeans is not something that registers.

On men - yeah, ones that wear good clothes stand out more to me than ones that don't. But I'd never turn down a cute, interesting guy just because he doesn't wear designer labels. So...clothes etc aren't important but they are more likely to get my attention.

3. What is your dream house like?

Large. Airy. Heaps of space and set in a lot of land. Isolated, where I can do whatever I want without anyone nearby to bother me. That'd be awesome.

Apart from the dream place in New York City. Then it'd be full of books and near a nice coffee shop - probably in the Village where lots of other interesting people live. Or the Upper West Side where there are some awesome bars.

4. Do you have a favorite dessert?

Many! One ultimate favoutite - toffee apple pecan pie. Warm, with single cream. Guh. Just perfection.

5. If you could punch one person in the face, living or dead, who would it be?

My buddy Ryan in LA. He's the most infuriating, annoying, pain in the ass in the world.

Of course, I love him to death. But that doesn't mean that I don't want to smack him really really hard a lot of the time. :D
