"headTitle": "About Face: On Beauty, Characters and Threading the Needle | KQED",
"content": "\u003cp>There is a myth that the most worshipped woman in popular culture is the one perceived as most perfectly beautiful, but that’s not so. What’s worshipped the most is the one who threads the needle most precisely such that she is almost impossibly beautiful, but something about her brings her toward you and into focus, close enough that you feel like you could touch her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consider the unintentionally funny opening of Rich Cohen’s recent \u003cem>Vanity Fair \u003c/em>\u003ca href=\"http://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2016/07/margot-robbie-cover-story\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">profile\u003c/a> of Margot Robbie, an interesting actress who is, among other things, about as conventionally beautiful as women get (and more power to her).\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>“America is so far gone, we have to go to Australia to find a girl next door. In case you’ve missed it, her name is Margot Robbie. She is 26 and beautiful, not in that otherworldly, catwalk way but in a minor knock-around key, a blue mood, a slow dance. She is blonde but dark at the roots. She is tall but only with the help of certain shoes. She can be sexy and composed even while naked but only in character. As I said, she is from Australia. To understand her, you should think about what that means.”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Margot Robbie, according to this paragraph, is beautiful in a kind of regular, ordinary, normal, accessible way, even though the profile is entirely illustrated with wet-babe swimsuit shots. Apparently she has dark roots (which, by the way, are generally the result of waiting to color your hair, and not of any particular mystique or genetic ta-da) and is tall if she happens to wear very high heels (which, by the way, is true of many women because of the basic interlocking logic of shoes and height). And she is from Australia, and we should think about what that means. (Spoiler alert: The thesis is that “Australia is America 50 years ago,” so I’m sure they’re looking forward to getting the Internet someday.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What follows is something like you’d expect to find in late-night Margot Robbie fan fiction, in which you meet her and really, really get to know the woman behind the blue eyes and blond hair — you look at her in a new way. She touches your heart a tad. “We sat for a moment in silence,” Cohen says. “She was thinking of something; I was thinking of something else.” (Say countless readers in unison: “Yes, I suspect you were not thinking the same thing in this particular moment.”) Somehow, this piece ends without a gentle, rueful kiss on the forehead, but that’s sort of where it seems to be going for a while there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The effort to position Margot Robbie as less “otherworldly” but more of a “knock-around” kind of girl because she has dark roots and isn’t all that tall is a perfect example of worshipping a woman by arguing that she threads the needle in just the right way. She delights us, but you can see a flicker of ordinariness that binds her to us when we feel ordinary ourselves. The ones who are beautiful with no ordinariness at all will be classified as cold. Or stuck-up. Or worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It made an interesting companion piece with \u003cem>Variety \u003c/em>film critic Owen Gleiberman’s recent \u003ca href=\"http://variety.com/2016/film/columns/renee-zellweger-bridget-joness-baby-1201806603/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">column\u003c/a> lamenting the way Renee Zellweger looks in the trailer for \u003cem>Bridget Jones’s Baby\u003c/em>. Gleiberman guesses (without, he acknowledges, any evidence other than his own sense of what she \u003cem>should \u003c/em>look like were she aging naturally) that Zellweger has had “work done.” That, of course, is in turn a way of implying “plastic surgery” without saying so — there’s work that isn’t surgery, but that probably isn’t what we’re talking about. Gleiberman says that Zellweger is unrecognizable as herself and goes on to generalize that when \u003cem>that\u003c/em> happens, it’s not the result of a celebrity trying to look her best or trying to stay the same, but of something far more nefarious: “It’s the result of a decision, an ideology, a rejection of the self.” That is a lot to conclude based on a trailer, but let’s follow it for a bit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5aaWY7rQS3I\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What seems to have bummed Gleiberman out in the case of Zellweger is, he says, rooted in his appreciation of the way she looked in \u003cem>Jerry Maguire\u003c/em> — to him, she wasn’t pretty like a movie star, but was, as he puts it, “beautiful in the way an ordinary person is.” In other words: a needle-threader. He ascribes essentially all of her appeal in the film\u003cem> \u003c/em>to this fact, saying nothing about her acting in it at all, only that her ordinary looks (that’s not really true to begin with, I don’t think, but let’s posit that it’s true) were what made the story special, what gave it meaning. That Tom Cruise could fall for a woman so regular-looking, so not-Julia-Roberts. “This is what completes you,” he says in reference to the film’s most famous line, “someone who looks just like this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The piece ends in hope that in the third Bridget Jones movie, Bridget will look like “a gloriously ordinary person” rather than “someone who looks like she no longer wants to look like who she is.” That sentence subtly shifts the lamentable thing from \u003cem>how Renee Zellweger looks\u003c/em>, which might be deemed superficial, to \u003cem>how Renee Zellweger looks like she feels about how she looks\u003c/em>, which is meant — sincerely, I think — as compassionate\u003cem>. \u003c/em>It’s also a surprising thought, given that not wanting to look like who she was essentially defined Bridget Jones, whose diary is all about weight loss and getting a boyfriend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In any event, if I follow the logic, it’s that it’s sad to see an ordinary-looking actress succumb to pressure to conform, in this case not because of the way Zellweger actually looks, but because the \u003cem>motives \u003c/em>Gleiberman ascribes to Zellweger the actress (rejection of self) are inconsistent with Bridget the character. He seems to find Bridget more confident and self-assured than I ever have, but again, let’s go with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s the thing: Actors change how they look all the time. They go blond. They go brunette. They shave their heads. They grow weird mustaches, they grow long beards and shave them off, they gain weight and lose weight, they pierce things and get terrible haircuts. Men go from wiry to jacked and back. \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/monkeysee/2012/04/21/151107477/what-zac-efrons-beard-means-for-men-and-women-in-hollywood\">Zac Efron\u003c/a> massively changed his image from a slender, nonthreatening teen wiggle-dancer to a scruffy brooder who could play a Marine. Joaquin Phoenix is \u003cem>often \u003c/em>unrecognizable compared to when last you saw him, depending on when last you saw him. Emma Stone already has an entire career’s worth of looks in her past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a lot to assume a substantial change in appearance, because it involves the face, can only be the result of “the rejection of the self.” It’s also a lot to assume that however different you think an actress looks, that’s how different she means to look — that if you cannot recognize her, she has chosen to be unrecognizable. (For the record, if it matters, I don’t happen to think Zellweger looks much different at all in the trailer from what I would expect an older Bridget to look like. I did think she looked different a couple of years ago, but people have all kinds of experiences, from beauty treatments to medication, that temporarily change their look.) It would be one thing to say, “Zellweger’s current look doesn’t fit Bridget.” It’s quite another to say, “I conclude that she’s doing this because she’s rejecting herself, and rejecting herself doesn’t fit Bridget.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But ultimately, to place this much of Zellweger’s appeal in her physical face anyway, particularly through this pretty-but-in-a-not-\u003cem>that\u003c/em>-pretty-way lens, is assigning to ourselves a different relationship to her physical self than we probably ought to have. Actresses can change their faces if they want to, exactly as they can tattoo their bodies. They owe us nothing. It’s misdirection, I think, to analyze Zellweger’s self-worth as if she’s old insecure Bridget, crying on the couch again. If this is wrong for her because we are concerned for actresses’ well-being, then it’s equally wrong for an actress who’s playing an action hero or a glamorous goddess. But if it’s wrong because she owes us her 2001 face so that we can have pinchable-cheeked Bridget Jones the way we remember her, I don’t think that’s how faces work. Yours is yours; you may do with it as you like, and she may also. You then go to the movie or do not, but she doesn’t owe anyone any specific appearance at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moreover, I’m not sure it’s more insidious (his word) to change your appearance substantially than it is to, as Gleiberman puts it, “nip and tuck” to avoid the appearance of aging and stay precisely as you are? Aging \u003cem>invites \u003c/em>the rejection of the self in the sense that it’s that same self, after all, that determinedly changes its appearance unless you intervene. Accepting that aging is natural requires accepting that a person whose appearance does \u003cem>not\u003c/em> change because of constant maintenance is not automatically more or less engaged in self-acceptance than someone who shows up with an entirely different nose. Choosing to push back against the naturally emerging visual manifestation of yourself — grayer, perhaps, or with more wrinkles — is certainly no \u003cem>less\u003c/em> emotionally fraught for many people than choosing to push back against the current version of yourself by coloring your hair or getting a tattoo or plumping your lips. People change how they present; it’s deeply personal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A lot of people who lament cosmetic procedures in Hollywood say that they are — and in fact they consciously are — trying to take up for actresses who feel forced into it. And to them I would say this: If that’s the issue, even assuming you’re right, you’ll do more good by directing the anger at the problem, not at what your own analysis suggests the people affected by it do to survive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps it’s vanity. Perhaps it’s pressure. Perhaps all that nipping and tucking that we don’t notice and dismiss as normal upkeep has blinded us to what it really looks like when actors age. How sure are we that we know what aging looks like in all cases? Have you ever been to a high school reunion?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No one wants anyone to feel \u003cem>forced\u003c/em> into a rejection of the self. Still, the narrower we make the path that a pretty/ordinary or pretty ordinary woman has to walk — engaged in constant but undetectable upkeep, naturally gorgeous but possessed of a mole or a crooked smile or something else that tells us she might have been next to us in the yearbook — the more, not less, brutal this entire business becomes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2016 NPR.

In case you’ve missed it, her name is Margot Robbie. She is 26 and beautiful, not in that otherworldly, catwalk way but in a minor knock-around key, a blue mood, a slow dance. She is blonde but dark at the roots. She is tall but only with the help of certain shoes. She can be sexy and composed even while naked but only in character. As I said, she is from Australia. To understand her, you should think about what that means.”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Margot Robbie, according to this paragraph, is beautiful in a kind of regular, ordinary, normal, accessible way, even though the profile is entirely illustrated with wet-babe swimsuit shots. Apparently she has dark roots (which, by the way, are generally the result of waiting to color your hair, and not of any particular mystique or genetic ta-da) and is tall if she happens to wear very high heels (which, by the way, is true of many women because of the basic interlocking logic of shoes and height). And she is from Australia, and we should think about what that means. (Spoiler alert: The thesis is that “Australia is America 50 years ago,” so I’m sure they’re looking forward to getting the Internet someday.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What follows is something like you’d expect to find in late-night Margot Robbie fan fiction, in which you meet her and really, really get to know the woman behind the blue eyes and blond hair — you look at her in a new way. She touches your heart a tad. “We sat for a moment in silence,” Cohen says. “She was thinking of something; I was thinking of something else.” (Say countless readers in unison: “Yes, I suspect you were not thinking the same thing in this particular moment.”) Somehow, this piece ends without a gentle, rueful kiss on the forehead, but that’s sort of where it seems to be going for a while there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The effort to position Margot Robbie as less “otherworldly” but more of a “knock-around” kind of girl because she has dark roots and isn’t all that tall is a perfect example of worshipping a woman by arguing that she threads the needle in just the right way. She delights us, but you can see a flicker of ordinariness that binds her to us when we feel ordinary ourselves. The ones who are beautiful with no ordinariness at all will be classified as cold. Or stuck-up. Or worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Gleiberman guesses (without, he acknowledges, any evidence other than his own sense of what she \u003cem>should \u003c/em>look like were she aging naturally) that Zellweger has had “work done.” That, of course, is in turn a way of implying “plastic surgery” without saying so — there’s work that isn’t surgery, but that probably isn’t what we’re talking about. Gleiberman says that Zellweger is unrecognizable as herself and goes on to generalize that when \u003cem>that\u003c/em> happens, it’s not the result of a celebrity trying to look her best or trying to stay the same, but of something far more nefarious: “It’s the result of a decision, an ideology, a rejection of the self.” That is a lot to conclude based on a trailer, but let’s follow it for a bit.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/5aaWY7rQS3I'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/5aaWY7rQS3I'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>What seems to have bummed Gleiberman out in the case of Zellweger is, he says, rooted in his appreciation of the way she looked in \u003cem>Jerry Maguire\u003c/em> — to him, she wasn’t pretty like a movie star, but was, as he puts it, “beautiful in the way an ordinary person is.” In other words: a needle-threader. He ascribes essentially all of her appeal in the film\u003cem> \u003c/em>to this fact, saying nothing about her acting in it at all, only that her ordinary looks (that’s not really true to begin with, I don’t think, but let’s posit that it’s true) were what made the story special, what gave it meaning. That Tom Cruise could fall for a woman so regular-looking, so not-Julia-Roberts. “This is what completes you,” he says in reference to the film’s most famous line, “someone who looks just like this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The piece ends in hope that in the third Bridget Jones movie, Bridget will look like “a gloriously ordinary person” rather than “someone who looks like she no longer wants to look like who she is.” That sentence subtly shifts the lamentable thing from \u003cem>how Renee Zellweger looks\u003c/em>, which might be deemed superficial, to \u003cem>how Renee Zellweger looks like she feels about how she looks\u003c/em>, which is meant — sincerely, I think — as compassionate\u003cem>. \u003c/em>It’s also a surprising thought, given that not wanting to look like who she was essentially defined Bridget Jones, whose diary is all about weight loss and getting a boyfriend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In any event, if I follow the logic, it’s that it’s sad to see an ordinary-looking actress succumb to pressure to conform, in this case not because of the way Zellweger actually looks, but because the \u003cem>motives \u003c/em>Gleiberman ascribes to Zellweger the actress (rejection of self) are inconsistent with Bridget the character. He seems to find Bridget more confident and self-assured than I ever have, but again, let’s go with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s the thing: Actors change how they look all the time. They go blond. They go brunette. They shave their heads. They grow weird mustaches, they grow long beards and shave them off, they gain weight and lose weight, they pierce things and get terrible haircuts. Men go from wiry to jacked and back. \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/monkeysee/2012/04/21/151107477/what-zac-efrons-beard-means-for-men-and-women-in-hollywood\">Zac Efron\u003c/a> massively changed his image from a slender, nonthreatening teen wiggle-dancer to a scruffy brooder who could play a Marine. Joaquin Phoenix is \u003cem>often \u003c/em>unrecognizable compared to when last you saw him, depending on when last you saw him. Emma Stone already has an entire career’s worth of looks in her past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a lot to assume a substantial change in appearance, because it involves the face, can only be the result of “the rejection of the self.” It’s also a lot to assume that however different you think an actress looks, that’s how different she means to look — that if you cannot recognize her, she has chosen to be unrecognizable. (For the record, if it matters, I don’t happen to think Zellweger looks much different at all in the trailer from what I would expect an older Bridget to look like. I did think she looked different a couple of years ago, but people have all kinds of experiences, from beauty treatments to medication, that temporarily change their look.) It would be one thing to say, “Zellweger’s current look doesn’t fit Bridget.” It’s quite another to say, “I conclude that she’s doing this because she’s rejecting herself, and rejecting herself doesn’t fit Bridget.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But ultimately, to place this much of Zellweger’s appeal in her physical face anyway, particularly through this pretty-but-in-a-not-\u003cem>that\u003c/em>-pretty-way lens, is assigning to ourselves a different relationship to her physical self than we probably ought to have. Actresses can change their faces if they want to, exactly as they can tattoo their bodies. They owe us nothing. It’s misdirection, I think, to analyze Zellweger’s self-worth as if she’s old insecure Bridget, crying on the couch again. If this is wrong for her because we are concerned for actresses’ well-being, then it’s equally wrong for an actress who’s playing an action hero or a glamorous goddess. But if it’s wrong because she owes us her 2001 face so that we can have pinchable-cheeked Bridget Jones the way we remember her, I don’t think that’s how faces work. Yours is yours; you may do with it as you like, and she may also. You then go to the movie or do not, but she doesn’t owe anyone any specific appearance at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moreover, I’m not sure it’s more insidious (his word) to change your appearance substantially than it is to, as Gleiberman puts it, “nip and tuck” to avoid the appearance of aging and stay precisely as you are? Aging \u003cem>invites \u003c/em>the rejection of the self in the sense that it’s that same self, after all, that determinedly changes its appearance unless you intervene. Accepting that aging is natural requires accepting that a person whose appearance does \u003cem>not\u003c/em> change because of constant maintenance is not automatically more or less engaged in self-acceptance than someone who shows up with an entirely different nose. Choosing to push back against the naturally emerging visual manifestation of yourself — grayer, perhaps, or with more wrinkles — is certainly no \u003cem>less\u003c/em> emotionally fraught for many people than choosing to push back against the current version of yourself by coloring your hair or getting a tattoo or plumping your lips. People change how they present; it’s deeply personal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A lot of people who lament cosmetic procedures in Hollywood say that they are — and in fact they consciously are — trying to take up for actresses who feel forced into it. And to them I would say this: If that’s the issue, even assuming you’re right, you’ll do more good by directing the anger at the problem, not at what your own analysis suggests the people affected by it do to survive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps it’s vanity. Perhaps it’s pressure. Perhaps all that nipping and tucking that we don’t notice and dismiss as normal upkeep has blinded us to what it really looks like when actors age. How sure are we that we know what aging looks like in all cases? Have you ever been to a high school reunion?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

While in days past one had to actually show up to rallies, mention a candidate's name in interviews, and so on, voicing support for the politico of your choice is now simply a retweet button away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And yet: Some celebs are carefully, pointedly staying out of the fray. Dolly Parton, for example -- she of iconic voice, sky-high hair and ample cleavage -- was quick to clarify her stance this week when a comment she made about supporting a \"woman in the White House\" was apparently misinterpreted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/DollyParton/posts/10153876144694755\" target=\"_blank\">Per Facebook\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FDollyParton%2Fposts%2F10153876144694755&width=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"275\" style=\"border:none;overflow:hidden\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, a few things here. For one, it's kind of refreshing to know that the 70-year-old Ms. Parton, in the midst of a months-long national tour, is doing her own social media. (No intern wrote that. Come on.) More importantly, I'll admit that this post provoked some mixed feelings for me -- if there's one thing female politicians don't need in the last lap of a historic bid for the presidency, it's more mentions of boobs and PMS as women's defining characteristics. Not to mention: Dolly. You \u003cem>really\u003c/em> don't know what side you're on at this point? They're pretty different sides, folks.

This is deceptively simple yet suave deescalation, served with a self-aware wink and a side of heavy mascara. Dolly Parton is a country legend, and to out herself as either a Republican or a Democrat would be hugely isolating to a vast portion of her fanbase. She is a consummate businesswoman. She knows her brand. It ain't political endorsements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lastly, raise your hand if you'd legitimately vote for Dolly Parton to run the country. Think about why or why not and exactly how silly or not silly a concept it is. I'd argue: Not much sillier than\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArbNWI2MilA\" target=\"_blank\"> these two running Minnesota and California\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And hey, bonus: She could sing the national anthem herself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Dolly Parton plays\u003ca href=\"http://www.livenation.com/events/562490-sep-24-2016-dolly-parton-pure-simple-tour\" target=\"_blank\"> the Shoreline Sept. 24\u003c/a>, if you're still looking to use up those \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/2016/06/21/ticketmasters-settlement-offer-of-free-concerts-is-looking-like-a-disaster/\" target=\"_blank\">Ticketmaster freebies\u003c/a>. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n",

While in days past one had to actually show up to rallies, mention a candidate's name in interviews, and so on, voicing support for the politico of your choice is now simply a retweet button away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And yet: Some celebs are carefully, pointedly staying out of the fray. Dolly Parton, for example -- she of iconic voice, sky-high hair and ample cleavage -- was quick to clarify her stance this week when a comment she made about supporting a \"woman in the White House\" was apparently misinterpreted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/DollyParton/posts/10153876144694755\" target=\"_blank\">Per Facebook\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FDollyParton%2Fposts%2F10153876144694755&width=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"275\" style=\"border:none;overflow:hidden\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, a few things here. For one, it's kind of refreshing to know that the 70-year-old Ms. Parton, in the midst of a months-long national tour, is doing her own social media. (No intern wrote that. Come on.) More importantly, I'll admit that this post provoked some mixed feelings for me -- if there's one thing female politicians don't need in the last lap of a historic bid for the presidency, it's more mentions of boobs and PMS as women's defining characteristics. Not to mention: Dolly. You \u003cem>really\u003c/em> don't know what side you're on at this point? They're pretty different sides, folks. Do some reading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

This is deceptively simple yet suave deescalation, served with a self-aware wink and a side of heavy mascara. Dolly Parton is a country legend, and to out herself as either a Republican or a Democrat would be hugely isolating to a vast portion of her fanbase. She is a consummate businesswoman. She knows her brand. It ain't political endorsements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lastly, raise your hand if you'd legitimately vote for Dolly Parton to run the country. Think about why or why not and exactly how silly or not silly a concept it is.

And then, about all the times I'd taken her to Major League Baseball games, where she never saw herself reflected anywhere on the field, except maybe as a ballgirl. How actually, I'd been lying to her, and she couldn't do anything she set her mind to, because there was no place for her on the field. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her small little drawing, with the caption \"Go Stacie Go!,\" said otherwise.

Here's where the surprising part comes in: \u003cem>it suddenly felt like the most simple thing in the world\u003c/em>.

The \u003ca href=\"http://www.sonomagirlsfastpitch.com/site/\" target=\"_blank\">local girls' softball team\u003c/a> waited in line for hot dogs. A guy near me muttered \"good curveball.\" Eventually, the visiting team stranded a runner with a pop fly -- to Whitmore in left -- and the mood in the stands seemed more \"Whew, we got out of that inning\" than \"Goshalmighty wow there's girls on that there field!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/SonomaStompers/status/749061329445498881\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You \u003ca href=\"http://www.pressdemocrat.com/sports/5803482-181/sonoma-stompers-women-players-kelsie?artslide=0\" target=\"_blank\">can read\u003c/a> how the rest of the game went -- Piagno got pulled in the top of the third, Whitmore walked once and struck out once, and the Stompers lost. It wasn't the type of debut that makes for an exciting story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But realistically, how often is societal change like a Hollywood movie? It doesn't always look like a walk-off grand slam in the bottom of the ninth. Most of the time, it just looks like a fielder tucking her long hair under her ballcap, or a pitcher signing autographs for young women who've been told they \"throw like a girl\" their whole life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And sometimes? It looks like my daughter asking on the drive back if we could play baseball in the front yard when we got home.\u003c/p>\n\n",

It preached a message of sisterhood, self-acceptance, strength and—in direct contradiction to the title of the thing—good manners. It wasn't a flawlessly written feminist tome, but it did throw a couple of middle fingers at a media that is all too fond of pitting women against one another.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then there was the pièce de résistance: the \u003ca href=\"http://www.amberroseslutwalk.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Amber Rose SlutWalk\u003c/a>. Rose didn't invent the \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SlutWalk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SlutWalk\u003c/a>, but she has become an important spokesperson for the reasons why we need them. The one she held in Los Angeles in October 2015 was widely reported on in a way that others are not, precisely because she was at the helm, and precisely because she used it as a platform to speak very openly, and emotionally, about her life experiences and the double standards all women face. Photos of the event show her holding signs that read \"FUCK YO 30 SHOWERS\" and \"STRIPPERS HAVE FEELINGS TOO.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xhED-DLSco\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The website accompanying the SlutWalk now serves as a space for women to share \u003ca href=\"http://www.amberroseslutwalk.com/your-stories/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">their own stories\u003c/a> of sexist abuse and slut-shaming, and prides itself on being “a completely inclusive space” with “a zero tolerance policy on all hateful language, racism, sexism, ableism, fat-shaming, transphobia, or any other kind of bigotry.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The impact has been sizeable, and Rose has since found herself appearing in sketches for both \u003cem>Inside Amy Schumer\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Funny or Die \u003c/em>that were equal parts hilarious and subversive\u003cem>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HeiSx5MNDvg\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Funny or Die's \"Walk of No Shame With Amber Rose\" was, in particular, gloriously sex positive:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68kmBoUru-k\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to all of this, Rose has become a voice for other celebrity women. Just last week, she came to Taylor Swift's aid, when the singer (another woman on the receiving end of Kanye West's wrath—\"I made that bitch famous\" he raps in \"Famous\") was under scrutiny for having a new love interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postid='pop_103508']\"I love Taylor, for sure. Absolutely,\" Rose said. \"And I feel like guys do that all the time—they break up and the next day they’re with another girl and nobody really says anything. But with Taylor it’s, you know what, I’m done with Calvin [Harris] and it didn’t work out, so onto the next... If I’m done, why do I have to sit in the house and be lonely?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her years in the spotlight, Rose has successfully transformed herself from objectified video girl into a bonafide fourth-wave feminist icon. That's no small feat. She now stands as a powerful symbol of what all famous women are subjected to—and offers an impressive example of how to fight back.\u003c/p>\n\n",

I’m a sucker for this from their new album and song “Masterpiece,” with features lyrics like, “This place smells like piss and beer, can you get me out,” reminding me of a lot of sadly wasted evenings. They rock and then they slow down just as nicely for ballads like “Velvet Ring,” featuring just Lenker and her acoustic guitar.

And that’s what I’ve been able to do with my music, channel light in the middle of my darkness,” he said during our interview (listen to it at the top of the page).

And that’s what I’ve been able to do with my music, channel light in the middle of my darkness,” he said during our interview (listen to it at the top of the page).
