LET'S STOP
Nope, It’s Still Not Ok For You To Talk About My Boobs

Have you watched Pamela, a Love Story on Netflix yet? It’s about 90s superstar Pamela Anderson and her life in the public eye, including how she’s been treated by the press. And it’s got one anonymous writer thinking: “I watched as the documentary showed clips of several men commenting on Pamela Anderson’s breast implants on talk shows. On live television. With zero apologies,” she writes.

But she can understand a little bit about Anderson’s experiences, because she remembers being a teenager and getting unacceptable comments, herself: “Older boys and men made comments that made me feel uncomfortable about my chest, and some of my friends would make fun of me. It was as if they thought it was acceptable behavior just because I was large-chested.” And she’s feeling pretty pissed off about it, too. Read it and I bet you’ll feel the same.

Tell me if this scene – and this thought! – sound familiar: “The mess I’d asked my two children to clean an hour ago was still strewn about. I tried asking them again, but I was interrupted by their shouting, the usual argument over who had the remote first. My irritation simmers beneath the surface. Then a voice popped into my head: ‘Remember, you’re supposed to be gentle!’” This one’s for everybody out there who’s really, really trying, but the kids are testing them.
