Great article! But speaking of problematic language: a blog called "Jewesses [sic] with Attitude"?!? Are you freakin' kidding?!? Oh, no doubt that's meant as "irony"; or something like those misguided attempts to "reclaim" the "b-word", the "n-word", etc. (And how's *that* workin' out for ya? Not very well.) But the effect can only be to spread stereotypes and contempt. PLEASE, people, rename your otherwise-excellent blog--so I can recommend it and forward its wonderful articles to everyone in the whole wide world. Until then--BLEAGH!
