one last thing.
You know what? I cant begin to get worked up over the Open Source Boob mess.
Not because its not annoying, but because (1) it seems like everything worthwhile has already been said and (2) I have a hard time seeing a lot of people get so worked up over something that a lot of women of color have to deal with every day.
Yes, I went there.
From utter strangers feeling entitled to grab at our hair to men propositioning us for prostitution under any circumstances (waiting for the subway, heading to the office), plenty of women have to deal with the idea that we are already 'open source' or whatever the hell and have to suffer in silence to boot.
I'm just saying.
