Ecology hipocritical fads are getting more and more annoying.
Today it was the pseudoecofeminism's turn to shock me: I came across a "bioTampax" ad in a vegan restaurant. "One woman, in a lifetime, uses from ten to 15 thousand tampaxes, that are discarded like common trash and that cause terrible impact on the environment", it said. The ad had a blog address and I acessed it cause, well, I can't curse what I don't know, right?
It was worse than the ad. It had texts of last century's pseudoecofeminism bullshit. Things like "women are Goddesses of Nature"; "Use your nutritious blood to nurshure an organic plantation"; "Wash your bioTampaxes with coconut soap and flower essences". Unfortunately, only blog users could comment. I had some great lines to put there.
Yes, as a woman, I have a lot of freetime, to contribute against global warming and stuff by using a tampax I have to wash separatedly from my other pieces of clothing. I have a husband that gets all the money he can for me, and five maids - who have no time nor money for their own bioTampaxes - to help me clean the house, manage my job, beauty treatments, gym AND the kids. Of course, expensive eco-bags, and now bioTampaxes! Why not?
Because it's bullshit, that's why. Ecobags don't make the plastic necessities of our market fall; bioTampaxes won't make a difference because 99% of the women on this planet have no time to even eat properly between shifts, let alone...well, 'nuff said. The women who do have that time only do so because they have maids, in other words, poor women with no time for their own kids, let alone...'nuff said.
Nobody talks about the 'manly' activities that are destroying the planet: meat, cars, football, machines, computers, economists, publicity(meat alone is responsible for 80% of it,; most of the heavy meat eaters are male). Not only women are blamed for just being women, now they're polluting the planet with their...tampaxes!
Somebody make another comunist revolution or something of the sort, please. It's...late.

Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.

Boycott meat, futile TV, stupid movies and fashion magazines, adopt a stray animal and save the world.
I know, new problems will substitute the old ones, but for those who studied History, things are better. We have anesthesia, guys.

Everyone sees who I appear to be, but only a few know the real me. You can only see what I choose to show. There's so much more you just don't know.
