Summer’s Eve Says Douche Before You Ask For A Raise

summers_eve_womans_day.jpg

So Summer’s Eve runs an ad in Woman’s Day offering women eight steps to take when asking for a raise and all hell breaks loose. Why? Because the first step is to make sure you use Summer’s Eve Feminine Wash before you make the request.

Oh yes, people. We can’t talk about “down there.” On no. That area is strictly taboo. It’s OK to tell people to take a shower, use good soap, style your hair properly, wear the right jewelery, be sure your skirt isn’t too short, your heels too high, your cleavage overexposed. To be sure your shoes are properly polished, your deodorant appropriately scented, your posture professional, your handshake firm and your breath as fresh as a rose.

But to inform a woman, who may very well need what a feminine wash can provide, she might want to consider making sure THAT area is as fresh as all her others is a travesty. A blight against women. A disgrace. And an objectification of the entire female species as nothing more than a sweet smelling receptacle for the urgency of men.

Hey, did you expect anything other than a contrarian point of view from us?

I thought retirement would mean freedom, but at 66 I’ve discovered it actually means waking up every day knowing that nobody’s schedule depends on you anymore — and that the invisibility of not being needed is its own particular kind of grief

Research suggests that the most intellectually confident people in most rooms are often the quietest — not because they have nothing to say but because they learned early that speaking without thinking is a currency that devalues itself every time it’s spent

Psychology says the kindest people are sometimes the loneliest not despite their kindness but because of it — because kindness extended to everyone equally is kindness that belongs to no one specifically, and intimacy has always required specificity
