Since everyone is on about Sabrina Carpenter’s BDSM-inspired album cover, I thought my free article of the week could be my article that I wrote last time people started freaking out about Sabrina Carpenter being too sexual—you can find that article here: Sex Doesn’t Need to Be Empowering.

I was going to post the next edition of personals today but there is (unsurprisingly) a shortage of US-based women (because of my audience demographics, I may limit this to US for the meantime, I’m still figuring this out.) If you are a US-based woman who submitted and you think I accidentally missed you, let me know! But anyway, the personals will resume when they have at least some US-based women.
In case you missed it…
I released the first episode of my podcast, where I interviewed
on regaining attraction to women after a period of depression-induced asexuality. The second podcast episode will be launching this coming Monday with my very own real-life brother. What can I say? I contain multitudes. Because I’ll be discussing the Twitter drama of the week with my brother, I’m not posting Many Such Takes this week, but that’s a one-time thing and it will resume next week.I also released what I believe to be my best Trump impression ever last week, have a listen.
I wrote about whether or not a kink can be cringe (and the fact that it doesn’t matter.)
I'm relatively new to CHH and I have to ask, what's with the name? Why do cartoons hate her? Is there an article that explains the pseudonym?
I've heard of Sabrina Carpenter - that's it. I remember when there was controversy over Madonna's videos for “Like A Virgin,” “Express Yourself,” and “Like A Prayer” for starters; anything by the 2 Live Crew; Cyndi Lauper’s “She Bop” (both the song and video); and songs by Kiss and AC⚡DC; and all of that was pretty tame. Being 58 gives me that perspective because I read articles and saw shows about songs like “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” "Satisfaction,” and “I Think We're Alone Now” stirred up things in the 60's. This stuff just gets recycled.
I bet they're not making as much noise about some male artist with a similar cover.
Sexual and misogyny are alive and well, and nauseating me.
