I went to see Kick-Ass yesterday, mostly for the same reason a whole lot of people - including Roger Ebert, with whom I agree about 95% of the time - hated it. But I did like it. Here's why.

Another day, another amazing guest-blogger. Please welcome writer Kate Harding, proprietress of body-acceptance blog Shapely Prose, and author of/contributor to numerous books, including Lessons from the Fat-o-Sphere: Quit Dieting and Declare a Truce With Your Body and Yes Means Yes.

We didn't have the energy to respond to Katie Roiphe's provocation: "Why won't feminists admit the pleasure of infants?" Luckily, Shapely Prose did — and they've got an "Evil Baby Hater" button you can print out and wear. [Shapely Prose]
