and to tell a woman that she isn't worth anything because she isn't "sharp, mean, opinionated, decidedly lacking in mystery" is – wow.

Oh my God, so much word. I followed the link to Sadie's blog and grew progressively "..." the farther I read, if you know what I mean. What the HELL. (Also, can I just say that I find touting "sharp and mean" as qualities that women - or people in general, really - should apparently be aspiring to problematic on a whole 'nother level.)
