thinking about starting a blog

I saw a tweet with a picture of Tate McCrae and the caption was something along the lines of: “Popstars should bring back trying” (talking about outfits)

While I agree that it is very cool to have my favourite artists wearing glittery, sparkly dresses and bodysuits on stage, we must recognize that this particular wish is always steered towards women in the industry and never men. For a male popstar like Ed Sheeran it is perfectly okay if he comes on stage wearing a T-Shirt and Jeans and not an ounce of makeup on his face. But we as a society think that women owe us their best side. We think they owe us sexy, revealing or cute, beautiful costumes that are oftentimes uncomfortable or more difficult to perform in. Why is it that you think that women should have to perform a two hour show in high heels whereas men can wear sneakers? 

I understand that from an artistic perspective, you might be disappointed going to a women's show and not seeing her dressed to the nines like you might be used to from older artists, but I think it shows just how far the music industry has come in regards to sexism. You can still be successful as a woman if you’re wearing a skirt and T-shirt combo like Maisie Peters typically does or a long sleeve shirt and jeans, like we’ve seen Gracie Abrams rock a couple of times now. How successful a female artist is isn’t just determined by how extravagant/risque their outfit is, but also, for a part at least, on how good their music is.

Review: In Another Time

Love is worth the fight

It’s 1942, and Maisie McCall is in the Scottish Highlands doing her bit for the war effort as a Women’s Timber Corps lumberjill. Maisie relishes her newfound independence and her growing friendships—especially with the enigmatic John Lindsay.

As Maisie and John work side-by-side felling trees, Maisie can’t help but feel like their friendship has the spark of something more to it. And yet every time she gets close to him, John pulls away. It’s not until Maisie rescues John from a terrible logging accident that he begins to open up to her about the truth of his past, and the pain he’s been hiding.

Suddenly everything is more complicated than Maisie expected. And as she helps John untangle his shattered history, she must decide if she’s willing to risk her heart to help heal his. But in a world devastated by war, love might be the only thing left that can begin to heal what’s broken.

Plot:

Margaret “Masie” McCall, age seventeen, is helping out with war efforts as much as she can. Leaving school, and her home, Masie joins the Women Timber Corps lumberjill, as she and other women cut down trees that will be sent to the Allies to help in their mission. With the Germans blocking off the timber route so that Brittan had to get their lumber from Masie and her girls in Scotland. Where all the other women were in their twenties and thirties, Masie became friends with the other second youngest girl there: Dot. During their final weeks of training in August of 1942, the girls went to the dance the local town was having. That is where they met the Americans, who turned out to be the Newfoundland Overseas Forestry Unit. After an awful dance with her partner, John Lindsey, Masie put that out of her mind, as she and Dot were both assign to work in Auchterblair, Speyside, to work at their lumberjill unit. Fate seems to be in Masie’s cards, as her unit began working with the Newfoundlanders, putting Masie next to John every day. The two form a friendship over poetry, as John Lindsey was named after his mother’s brother, John McCrae who wrote the poem: In Flanders Fields. Every time Masie gets to figuring John out, he pulls away and hide his feelings. After all, in her home, her father yelling and her mother standing in her place behind him, how would Masie even know what love is? Yet, knowing there is something there in John’s heart, that makes her want to stay, and fight for whatever they have.  

Thought:

Caroline Leech wrote this romance story center around the time of World War Two, but it was not directly about the war. Taking place in the woods of Scotland, Leech tells the story of a lumberjill that falls in love with a lumberjack. Leech keeps her story periodically accurate, yet nothing besides, why Masie and John met, connect this story to the actual war currently going on. The story title, In Another Time, was said in the story as maybe in another time they could have fallen in love, but not this one, as John constantly pushes Masie away, for what he has done in the past. As Masie works out her relationship with John, a side plot to the story was Masie and her family. Her father, cold hearted, yelled at Masie for leaving school during her final year to help out with the war efforts, and forced Masie to walk to the train station alone that day. An interesting side story line Leech added in there, as Masie deals with her family’s rejection at the same time John kept rejecting her. With a happy ending, and a few surprising twists, Leech ends us with an epilog after the war (1950) in which all the favorite characters get what they deserve.
