Dear Daily Mail’s Misogyny
This is a video from Amanda Palmer a singer in London who’s breast came out of her bra and that was the only aspect of her performance the Daily Mail reported. This song is expressing a protest about misogyny in the media.
It is a courageous song. She stands naked before truth. I respect her stand and I feel more women are going to speak up. It is a wake up call for the media and how it stereotypes women.
The offending article is posted below. I noticed the journalist (not named) made a reference to her sexuality. I look forward to a time when we are no longer voyers of sexuality but appreciators of the great beauty in both genders. That we find our capacity to bring art to journalism in a way that promotes social comment rather than gossip.
