This is Only a Test : While You Were Gone: The Bechdel Test

A great deal of my posts are about or related to feminism and feminist issues. I'm a fan of music and art. I'm a musician. I'm liberal. I'm accepting.

I'm a contributor to these rad blogs:

Tattooed + Pierced

The Feminist Hub

I make some feminist-inspired t-shirts which you can acquire here.

I welcome Questions & Comments & Observations & More - serious or lulzy.

While You Were Gone: The Bechdel Test

A film* passes the The Bechdel Test if:

It has at least two women in it, who,

Talk to each other about,

Something besides a man.

It’s named after Alison Bechdel, who popularised the rule—apparently formulated by her friend Liz Wallace—in the comic strip Dykes to Watch Out For.

…

Interesting (and not surprising) my favorite films tend to pass this test. Sad how many movies don’t. I love this site.
