Disaster? Feminist Semiotics 101
This from AOL Jobs. Now, since when is a bad hair day either a faux pas (their word on the headline linking to the article) or a disaster? Only in a patriarchal world where women are expected to be beautiful and graceful and ready to be Gazed at all times while also handling stressy deadlines and irksome coworkers.... C'mon. Flat hair? Something to actually worry about? As opposed to, say, job performance and well-being of one's soul, or say telling your very polite boss an off-color joke (serious faux pas) or, gosh, I'm thinking, wait, wait, say a Category 5 Hurricane? Yeh, there, now we have some proportional rhetoric. Man! This is getting tired.
