Once, as a little kid, I ran a particularly high fever, and as a result was forced to stay at home in bed while my dad took my sister and my brothers out for ice cream. I bawled my eyes out, because as we all know, not being able to eat ice cream is a [...]

No, they cannot. Buuut, here’s the thing. I kind of hate it when people make absolute statements that leave no room for discussion. I hate when people claim video games can never be art. Or a Step Up film can never be entertaining. So when I hear people say “rape jokes are never funny” my [...]

I must admit that I’m pushing 30.  These eyes aren’t without wrinkles anymore.  Most nights, I have to go to bed at 9pm. But apply a cucumber mask, do my nails, soak in a bubble bath… and I might just feel like a goddess. Watching Michelle Phan’s beauty videos make me feel, well… young again.  [...]

He started off well enough. He was dreamy, serious, awesome at what he does and a very caring older brother. With one look in the Avatar’s direction a thousand ships were launched and Mako became the new Zuko. Only better because, you know, the hair. Then Asami, the best romantic foil ever put onto a [...]

But here at Fempop, we know what people really want to know: “What are the superhero movies that are just okay?” Here’s a [...]

The Internet is full of lists on “The Top Five Best Superhero Movies” (the second movie of every superhero trilogy) and “The Top Five Worst Superhero Movies” (the third movie of every superhero trilogy). But here at Fempop, we’re committed to doing the unexpected. At least, I think we are, I don’t really read this [...]

  News of Tom and Katie’s divorce breaks in the FemPop cyber- headquarters: Rebecca Jane: TOM CRUISE! ALEX! TOM CRUISE! ALEX! TOM CRUISE! ALEEEX! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Alex: ….whaaat? Rebecca Jane: He’s DEAD. Kidding. He’s getting a divorce! Alex: I just nearly died. Also good – now he will come out. Rebecca Jane: Ha ha ha. I [...]

There are times when I don’t march in formation with internet feminism. I don’t think Mako from The Legend of Korra is some kind of bending Don Draper. I see nothing wrong with Power Girl’s costume. And I don’t find Justin Timberlake attractive. We come now to the new Tomb Raider game. The internet’s given [...]
