Get the Superman mug.The kind of girl that thinks the double standard of slights and comments about older guys having their dad's body, but that its a real shocker when a single guy comments on how many older females have mama's body from partying and years of work and stress is okay, that its only males who should be thinking of how the other sex is human, and does care what people think of them, no matter how much they pretend not to (in a desperate attempt to look nonchalant instead of awkward and silly).
The feminist made snarky comments about guys in their 40s and 50s not having the youthful appearance they did in their 20s and 30s, then complained about how males were obsessed with their bodies and female's bodies, and still couldn't see the double standard they practiced and preached against for what it was. Youth doesn't last forever.

Get the Feminist mug.Another double standard of a feminist- It's a real shocker when a male is single, and its okay for a female to make comments and remarks about what she thinks of the guy, but for a male to do the same, to notice its a real shocker that the girl is single and make comments and remarks about it is what she calls something like petty.
To a feminist, things are only one-sided when the other sex does it, and double standards are only double standards when the other sex does it (which is by definition, going by a double standard, the same you preach against).

Get the Feminist mug.Calling the sky purple might be more fun to some people than calling it blue, but its certainly not setting anybody straight to tell them the sky is purple, or to try and make an argument out of nonsense. Its also not really liberating to anybody to tell them the sky can be purple if they want it to be.
The country is still somewhat free enough that you can call the sky purple instead of blue without having your head examined (though not everybody has the luxury), though it doesn't really liberate anybody or set anybody straight to keep bullshitting them by telling them to try and think the kind of abstract thoughts you want to see them think about.

Get the Purple mug.The girl wanted it all, she wanted to be the life of the party one minute, but then she still wanted to be the one who looked like the straight grown up of the bunch when that was convenient, though neither version of herself that she presented to the world was who she was most of her life (she was no longer who she had been as a kid).

Get the Straight mug.Just like somebody who's not straight shouldn't be trying to set everyone else straight, someone who has enough trouble controlling their own actions and handling themself doesn't need to trying to handle other people.
The girl wanted to look like the one who could handle anything and anyone to the world even though some people had seen her lack of control over quite a few of her own actions in life.

Get the Handle mug.Desperation is not the same as being in control of yourself.
The girl wanted to start taking control of other peoples lives despite never really having had control of herself. Most of her life was an attempt to get people to start paying attention to her and stop rejecting her and going about their lives, which was true desperation.
