About two months ago I was very ill and sitting at home in my dogs-toasting-marshmallows flannel pj's and reading articles/watching youtube as a break from all of the naps. As I sat there, feeling a bit blobbish wrapped in a blanket, and sipping tea for my sinus infection, I came across the "Blurred Lines" video and controversy. As I watched the video, an inescapable descriptor for the women in the video dawned on me.
"Sex Kitten".
I thought for a minute about all the connotations of this as the artist sang and the women bounced. I looked down at my dogs-toasting-marshmallows flannel pajamas,
"Fuck that. I am NOT a sex kitten," Said I to my computer. "I am a SEX LION".
I sneezecoughed into a tissue.
"HEAR ME ROAR".
