I am fond of listening to the radio. It gives a freedom to do other things simultaneously, unlike the TV which tends to eliminate that possibility. Mostly the radio is tuned to BBC radio 4 or sometimes 3, and this morning it was the former. Normally when Woman's hour begins, i get up and change the channel. This is partly because i am against the very notion of a women's only programme and partly because I hate the way that these hairy feminists manage to make everything into a womans issue. However, there are occasions, like today, when i can't be bothered to switch them off. It all seemed pretty benign after all and there was an interesting item about clicky hips.
Then the discussion changed to eyebrows. Intelligent women who want to be taken seriously "entertained" their audience by talking about eyebrows for ten whole minutes. Unbelievable! The content even more so: apparently it has become trendy again to shave off the eyebrows and, wait for it, yes you guessed, to draw on some new ones. How ludicrous is the world of fashion and those who worship therein. I lost interest at that point, and must remember next time to turn it off before they get chance to rekindle the chauvinistic side of me.
