Pinup model Bettie Page has died.
I’m sure there are so-called feminists out there who would take me to task for glorifying a patriarchy-pleaser like Page, but I really could give a shit.
I love Bettie Page. My story is not in the slightest bit original, so I’m not going to bore anyone with the details.
I’m sad that she’s gone, and I hope that she knew how much she meant to women, not just to the men who ogled her pictures. And a little part of me is glad that I cut bangs again recently. My little personal homage to Bettie.
…the men who ogled her pictures
And not a few women…
for sure.
hey, you! how goes?
I’m a feminist, and Bettie Mae Page is my hero.
Kudos for you for give her her dues!
