Sad White Babies With Mean Feminist Mommies

The Atlantic is reviving the tired feminist-baiting question “can women have it all.” Le sigh. In celebration of this backlashtastic event, I’ve compiled some of my favorite images that are often the art in these kinds of articles: The mean/frazzled/distracted working white mom (because WOC don’t exist in this narrative) who has been fooled into thinking she can have it all by feminism. Good times.

Note: I haven’t read the piece (it’s not out yet) and for all I know is a scorchingly awesome piece of feminist writing. But the headline/art/cover is just too awful and (knowingly) plays into the anti-feminist cliche the search for work/life balance is greedily trying to have “it all.”

Thanks to Sheryl Sandberg’s “Lean In” I am now aware of this post and feel the need to share it!

laracasey:

Note to self and everyone ever: You know all of those things you’ve always wanted to do? You should go do them. Because life is NOW. We spend virtually our entire lives “planning for the future” and setting things up for what’s ahead. We are programmed to think about what’s to come instead of what is right now. Now is the only reality. The past is gone and the future hasn’t happened yet. So, 1. Don’t worry. Worrying is like praying for something you don’t want in the future which isn’t even reality yet. 2. If there is something on your heart and it just won’t leave you and it’s a good thing, just do it already! The potential for you igniting greatness in your life and so many others is worth the risk! The alternative is to do nothing and that does… well… nothing. When you do the good things on your heart - no matter how hard they are - life happens! You find joy and the world opens up! You feel light and free and more doors open. So, don’t wait until the timing is perfect or until that magical day you have no fear. That’s not going to happen. The time is now. Goodness is waiting for you right. this. second. Go and do.
