anita hill said it... not me.

oh wait so here's something that's kind-of funny.

i've been writing for some zines lately (you should read all of them), and in one, MUSIC THAT DOESN'T SUCK, i wrote a thing about third-wave feminism and riot grrrl, that ended up mostly being about anita hill and clarence thomas.



i wrote something about thomas's habit of describing bestiality and gang rape from porn to hill. my esteemed editor called me the day after i'd e-mailed it to him and asked me if it was honestly bestiality and gang rape. my thoughts stumbled around and i found one of several of the websites i'd used for reference. it had actually been bestiality, group sex, and rape. my brain just made it a two-for-one.

my mistake, right?

WRONG.

way to be a champ, clarence thomas.



p.s. up there... where it says, MUSIC THAT DOESN'T SUCK? all in capital letters like that? that's a link. not a very good one yet, but still, push on it.
