Festive Message To All Our Readers!
By Kate Smurthwaite | 2 January 2009, 05:46
Enjoy! And if you really enjoy it you could search for it by my name/Cruella/I HATE Anti Wrinkle Cream Adverts on the CurrentTV website and maybe, just maybe, it’ll end up on TV. But that is rather shameless self-promotion so if you prefer just enjoy! And happy winterval everyone!
Have your say
In order to keep this blog as a feminist and friendly space, comments will be subject to some rules. We do not seek to censor debate: the beauty of the internet is that anyone can set up their own blog or website to express their views.
- This blog is a safe and friendly space for feminists and feminist allies. Debate and critique are welcome where it is constructive and deepens analysis or understanding. Anti-feminist comments will not be approved. We get to decide what's anti-feminist.
- All comments must be approved by one of the bloggers. For this reason, there may be a delay before your comment appears.
- No sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, classist, ablist comments, comments which make personal attacks on any blogger or commenter, or comments that are otherwise deemed offensive by us will be posted.
- Trolls will be banned from commenting. We get to decide who is a troll.
- No anonymous comments - please feel free to use your real name or make one up, though.
- Be nice.

Merry Christmas to you too Kate, thanks for the amusing video that has cheered me on my way back to work on this first non holiday of 2009.

Hilarious and incisive. This blog is introducing me to so many wonderful feminist comedians; first Katie Haskins and now Kate Smurthwaite.
...Hmm, what *is* it about that name?

I think it's Sarah Haskins isn't it? Or Sara? She's great though Rebecca (from Scary Little Girls, who produced the christmas message) and I were talking about her a lot before we decided to get up and make our own.

I hate that advert! My cod!
"If you're not ready for surgery" - because of course one day, ladies, WE WILL BE READY, you know, everybody has to have it!

I know "not ready for surgery", the nonchalant inference that all women will one day "need" their faces cut open is horrifying.
