This dress was inspired by the student in my sociology class who thought that all feminists were hairy and butch. I just want to make sure that everyone knows that a feminist can wear whatever the fuck she or he (or both or neither) feels like wearing. My sociology professor loved the dress and she gave me extra credit! I used a potato stamp to make the print, I used a vintage pattern to make the dress, and I embroidered the phrase “This is what a feminist looks like” on the bodice.

I give this an A+

I’d wear the hell out of this.

Tony Stark is the Sawyer of The Avengers.

All that’s missing is someone nicknamed ‘freckles’

Tony Snark.

This is suffering from the grievous omission of the “glow stick of destiny” line

Saw this movie for the second time tonight and his one liners got even funnier!
