The Female Man

I  was looking for something to read. I have an e-book reader and looking on the net I came across the author Joanna Russ. Sadly she died last month. I have never read any feminist literature let alone from the sci fi genre. The title of her novel 'The Female Man' caught my attention. I have read some reviews and I must admit I am intrigued, so it is now bought and downloaded.
Below is a link about Joanna Russ. She seems to have been an extraordinary woman.

Crossing a Line

I've been looking at permanent hair removal gadgets. For me doing anything that is permanent is crossing a line and the scary part is how far do I go  once I cross that line. I've heard and seen some bad reviews of home permanent hair removals systems and seemtobe a waste of money when it comes to male hair.
I have seen one by Boots that may be suitable for I want to do from what I have seen. My skintone and hair colour are well within range and apparently it is suitable for men. This could be a complete waste of money,but whatever I decide I'll wait till after the summer and put away the money I would have spent smoking.
