A woman's place is...Anywhere she wants to be!

The above quote is a pearl of wisdom from one of my professors, and it will do very well for the title and topic.

My horrendously huge history paper was turned in today.

I finished it two days in advance.

I actually enjoyed poring over two decades of Look magazine to analyze representations of women in advertising. My teacher told me that if I could stand researching that thing and scrutinizing it to death, it would make a very good dissertation project. Seriously, I liked it. It was like a treasure hunt to find and scrutinize the ads in a way only the most militantly radical-feministy GWS students can do...

In sixteen pages (not counting works cited) of pure feministy goodness that is guaranteed to satisfy.

Is there something wrong with me?

I actually enjoyed said paper!
