Feminism:
Dressing to not be noticed It’s a very interesting article. There are some part I disagree with:

“Mirror fasting” is a solution that’s been proposed a lot lately in the media. The gist of it is that a woman decides to go for a period of time (three days, five weeks) without looking into any reflective surfaces, thereby achieving freedom from the tyranny of her own image. But this is (almost literally) a head-in-the-sand approach.

Men explain: Why men keep telling women to “smile” Parts awesome/frustrating.
Why does low self-esteem seem to be expected?
