Are Silent Showers really a thing?

Are ‘Silent Showers’ Really A Thing? A Highly Edited Rant

By //  by Kelli Catana 12 Comments

Recently Jezebel posted a picture of a wedding shower invitation that someone had posted up on Reddit. No big deal. I mean, a wedding shower invite is pretty typical, right? Wrong. Apparently, there's this new 'thing' happening now called the 'Silent Shower'. What's a 'Silent' Shower', you ask? Well, it's basically the end of humanity as we know it. All of you women out there who cringe every time a birthday party invite for one of your kids comes home with directions to 'just give money' …

Why Shauna Hunt Is So Important

By //  by Kelli Catana 4 Comments

Last week CityNews reporter Shauna Hunt made headlines for confronting a group of men while she was conducting fan interviews during a Toronto FC Soccer match. Last year, a particularly disgusting habit of grown men yelling 'F*ck her right in the p*ssy' at female news reporters who were conducting interviews became popular. On this day Shauna herself was the victim of the same disgusting meme right before she decided to confront another group of men who were hanging around waiting for their …

By //  by Kelli Catana 1 Comment

In the past few weeks we've seen celebrities such as Kelly Clarkson and Pink body shamed online, and while these women were criticized for not being 'skinny' enough, online body shaming isn't restricted to just celebrities deemed overweight. Recently fitness model Sarah Stage was heavily criticized for being so fit during her 9 months of pregnancy that she and her baby couldn't possibly be healthy.  Sarah repeatedly posted picture of her bare baby bump on her Instagram page where she …

Narcissism and Selfies are the New Black

By //  by Kelli Catana 7 Comments

If you have a tween or teenager in your life that you've no doubt noticed their self-indulgent social media behaviour. You know what I'm talking about - the endless duck face selfies posted to their Instagram feed that are filtered just perfectly to make them look like their favourite Pretty Little Liars star or Kardashian. The resultant flurry of comments from their friends consist of words like 'beautiful, perfection, gorg, and bae.'  This happens until the next friend posts their very …

Celebrity Fat Shaming, Dancing Man And Internet Trolls

By //  by Kelli Catana 1 Comment

Kelly Clarkson is pretty much the one celebrity that I would want to be my  best friend. She's the girl who always looks like she'd be the life of any party even though she'd probably be the sober one, she always looks like she's having the best time no matter what she's doing, and she always has a smile on her face. She's eternally positive and happy go lucky and insanely talented that you want to hate her for being so amazing but because she's so damn likeable you just can't. But …
