    well I'm going to read it

    I don't object to the existence of this blog any more than I object to the existence of feminist magazines or women-only gyms. The word "girl" should never be used to refer to an adult, I'd prefer you not use "lady" either, and stay away from "chicks". The blog isn't particularly cheeky either. But the nasty comments on TT and this forum do not reflect this feminist's opinion. I find the actual content of the blog worth reading.
