Guess Who’s Bitching?

Posted by BeckySharper in Thoughts on Aug 11, 2009, 9:41pm | 9 comments

Since I’m always talking about how to BE A BITCH, I’m taking my own advice–literally. This week marks the start of my eight-week guest-blogging stint at Bitch Magazine. Don’t worry, I’m not flying the Harpyness nest. Far from it. I’ll basically be doubling my output. How I’m going to manage posting on two blogs, my day job, my personal life and the new season of “Mad Men” is beyond me, but I’m determined to try.*

So come on over to Bitch and check out my sex-and-relationships blog: Bed, Bitch, and Beyond

More about love, sex, and feminism! And the most recent post is about vibrators!  Y’all come visit me, hear?

Smooches,

Becky

* Three posts a week about sex and relationships is a lot even for a pervy woman-about-town like me, so I would deeply appreciate whatever tips, burning questions or discussion topics you’d like to throw my way. Post your naughtiness in the comments or e-mail me at becky@harpyness.com.

    Ooh, exciting!

    I have a couple of asshats that I’d love to see the Harpies take on.

    A post by a guy who claims that, really, it’d just be easier on everyone if any woman he wanted showed him her breasts. Check out his comments, too, they’re just peachy. http://modernsophist.com/?page_id=49

    By the same guy who wrote a post literally calling feminists “evil” (and then claiming that he’s a fully rational person, really) a post that says that the only reason men make more money than women is because women are naturally drawn to other pursuits, like buying shoes. http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-scientific-fundamentalist/200812/women-have-better-things-do-make-money-iii

    Congratulations, Becky! Very cool. I predict that John Hamm will inspire, rather than distract from, perviness.

    Oh Lord, baraqiel, anything by evo-psych hack Satoshi Kanazawa is automatically filed away under “Crazypants, Delusional.” And that other loser gives away his game at the start, happily adopting the label “sophist.” Just call your blog “Hi I’m Full of Shit Let Me Prove How Much” and be done with it, dude.

    Read your column last night, Becky. The Rabbit holds no appeal, but the Magic Wand… best. valentines present. evah.

    Cool Becky! My secret confession is I have never used a vibrator ever. Never really felt the urge, as it were. So about Bitch though, not to be critical of YOU but if you could get word to the powers that be over there…their website is sort of too busy or hard to navigate or something. I’d go more often if it was a different format!

    @PhD – My favorite part about Kanazawa is how he calls himself “the scientific fundamentalist”. That is such a contradiction in terms that it makes my head explode.

    The sophist one, though, I just think is so funny. At least this guy has the temerity to say what so many of them are thinking…

    @PhDork: Reading the comment thread on Bitch, I think you are in good company with your Hitachi-love. I may have to test-drive one…purely for research purposes, of course.

    @bluebears: I tend to agree about the Bitch homepage being very busy. There’s a lot of great stuff packed into a relatively small space and it takes patience to scroll through it.

    Yes, Becky, get Bitch to underwrite your Hitachi investigation! I’m a little nervous about anything that needs to be plugged into a wall. Mostly nervous that it will render everything/one else in my lovelife useless.

    Yay Becky! We’re proud of you!

    I don’t know if there’s a column in this, but I just found out about the following locution:”no homo”. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=no%20homo

    What the hell?

    Oh, for Pete’s sake.
