Or it’s like that Clash line too, ‘When we’re alone, it’s real tough going/We tend to take a part/In someone else’s play’.

These Business jokers pose as authorities on life, they think women should pattern themselves after their advertised images, that they aren’t good enough to be erotic if they don’t.

Margaret, you really blow that Chauvanist bullshit into next week! It’s revolutionary, you’re an erotic biker girl revolutionary! And thank you for that.

People are always telling me that I look like you. I don’t think I look like you at all. I’m not even Korean! But I guess to the rest of the world, all Asian women who have moon faces look the same.

The last time someone told me I looked like you, I was hefting 40 lbs. of dirty laundry to my car in withering SoCal summer heat. Her stupid little dog almost tripped me, and all she could say to me after I had already passed her was, “Hey! Has anyone ever told you that you look a lot like Margaret Cho?” I rolled my eyes and considered walking back to drop my laundry on her dog.

So, yeah, it used to piss me off that people thought I looked like you. That is, it used to piss me off until I read this blog about beauty. Margaret, thank you for giving me an alternative thought to think when people tell me I look like you. Now I can say to myself, “Oh, they’re just trying to tell me I’m beautiful. How sweet.” instead of “Fuck you fucking ignorant fuckers who can’t tell one Asian from the next.” You are right, Margaret. You are beautiful. Thank you for sharing your beautiful self with us.

This kind of phrasing from the dieters always baffles me. Are we not ALL dependent on food? Our brains LIKE food! Food makes brains go!
