Wonder Woman - Virginia Hausegger

The TV silly season is over, ordinary service is about to be resumed – Wonder Woman was spotted fattening up for the year ahead in a Kingston restaurant this evening.

Scary for the guys … but probably not for the feminists.

It’s always scary when feminism gets applied to space opera.

What if she’s a male ferengi trying to fake it and influence our society?

That would explain the woefull ignorance af Canberra, its people, place, and issues, as well as the need to over-compensate feminist credentials by writing a book of the bleeding obvious.

It all becomes clear….

Ferengi as in she has big ears and a sinister nature perhaps?

What do you mean ferrengi?

Are you referring to the Ferengi from Star Trek. In which case you are a little out. The laws and society of the Ferengi are extremely sexist. Women are forbidden to make profit, wear clothes, talk to strangers, or travel.

So to say a female is a ferrengi, if talking in nerd speak, would mean that she is NOT allowed to do the things VH has done.

Of course if you are not speaking the weird language of SciFi then can you tell me what that means?
ta

i think she is a ferrengi

I’m really interested in reading this book. A lot of women in my age group and a bit older and struggling with decisions about if or when to have kids and what happens to their career. I’d be interested in reading anything that adds to the debate, especially from a Canberran.

Fertility peaks in the late twenties and drops off sharply through your 30’s. Yes, it is a book with value beyond, look at me look at me I’m Virginia Hausegger!!

I am half way through it and would recommend it to anyone who thinks they may or may not have children!!!!

I am 33 just married (for the second time) and have no children to date, so it means more to me than it would to most. That having been said I didn’t know who VH was prior to hearing about this book (Nik-the-Pig had to tell me) and now she is someone who I have a massive amount of respect for.

She should definitely not be criticised for baring her soul, and the ‘choices’ she made are similar to decisions made by so many other women, myself included. Please don’t knock it till you have read it!

i dont like her big ears either. even on widescreen.
