I know lots of women who call themselves feminazis proudly.
Even still, absent "reclaiming harmful language" it isn't something to be proud of.
I think you East Coasters need to get a grip on your Spring and Autumn. People up here just don't know what they are doing with those two seasons. Everyone starts wearing shorts when it hits 50 in April, and then pretends like it isn't 30 outside when the next coldfront blows through. And during October and November, they act like the sun will never shine again! I have NO proof that this is logical, since last year and (apparently) this year, it's remained enjoyably comfortable late into the year. Last year in early December, I was wearing only a sweater and jeans and was comfortable...maybe a little warm. I think people up here are recovering from a traumatic winter a couple years ago, and have this kind of "refugee shock" thing going on.
