I don't know that I can explain it any better than the website, but it sums up by saying: "March 8th, 2012: Show the power of women on International Women's Day by wearing red lipstick. Let's turn every woman's lips into a reminder of who we are."
Someone did a Roller Derby Hey, Girl. My life is complete.

Wait, how does wearing cosmetics display "power"? Seriously? Buying into the corporate message that we aren't good enough and attractive enough as we are (and that being "attractive" is what gives us worth), so we need to buy their product and wear their product to conform to a societal standard of impossible beauty is how we display "power"?
Maybe I missed the first part.
I really need some purple tops, or at least one, for the Alzheimer's. I'm not wearing their t-shirts, and other than that, all I have is a fleece scarf, and it just doesn't show team spirit.
Oh, meara, I got some towels and some scented candles for my aunts. They've bought me scented candles in the past, so I figure they think it's a good gift, and who doesn't want new towels?
So the frat circulating the rapey survey has been suspended. A member of the national organization is coming to campus to pay a visit.
Sounds like these young men are in trouble.
