Blog Against Sexism Day, 3/8/2006

Read about Blog Against Sexism Day.

Here's my one point, which I mentioned in the last show:

STOP with the high heels already. Just stop. Yeah, I know they look cool and all, but comic book artists, challenge yourselves - make women look sexy and powerful WITHOUT HIGH HEELS. You can do it, I know you can.

And that goes twice for aliens.
