The unquenchable desire: On the compulsion for more, more, more
Desire is unquenchable. Likewise, it is our attachment to things that causes suffering. Learn to detach from desire, and you’re on your way to enlightenment. Or, so I’ve been told. These days I’ve been thinking a lot about attachments and desires and, well, stuff. All the stuff. From all the shoes that fall out of […]
The Girl Scouts: On leadership, inclusiveness, and cookies
January 31, 2013
With the news that The Boy Scouts of America is toying with ending its discriminatory policy against GBT (and presumably L) people, I can’t help but compare them to The Girl Scouts of the USA. In fairness, I must admit up front that I am an alum of the organization. But that’s not enough to […]

November 22, 2011
Oh boy. I’ve been so busy stirring up controversy over on my other blog, The Sin City Siren, that I’ve been neglecting The Tired Feminist! It ain’t easy being a one-woman show! And this blog’s name is truth in advertising; I am tired! But can it be that I completely forgot the first anniversary of […]
