a woman's worth

I was watching a documentary on a woman's image in advertizing, called Killing Me Softly.

Tag came over and enthusiastically exclaimed that "women are not all about beauty! Beauty isn't everything."

At this point I said "that's right!" and I was reaching out to hug him with feminist joy when he continued:

"Like Sonic says, it's all about speed!"

I laughed so hard at this point, even as he concluded:

"It's not about beauty or speed, it's about fun!"

Ah, my son. My eight year old son. How simple life was back then.
