I am having mixed feelings about the book "Pink Think." At first, I felt that it was an easy and enjoyable read. Now that I am into the fifth chapter, I keep finding myself looking to see how many pages are left until the end of the chapter. It is now a bit redundant and monotonous. Nonetheless, it is very interesting. There are certain things that just blow my mind, that people could write these things with such firm conviction, and actually spread this view of femininity so thick over the culture that we still struggle with some of these issues today. i guess that Kathy is right, it's kind of a "You had to be there" sort of thing- for if this book revolved around cultural phenomena of the 80's, I would probably be much more interested. Still, this book is providing me with a huge explanation why my mother's generation is the way it is. I would love to think that with our generation, we can squash Pink Think. But, I think it is a strong possibility that maybe (although it is different now) it might even be worse these days...
