Dear (non)existent readers,
This mistake in Texas could allow us the perfect marketing opportunity to push for the overturn of gay marriage bans. How can/should we use this? We need to act quickly!

Don't forget, I stole this from here.

hey you, pop culture
stop describing a wedding day as the most important day in a woman’s life. I suspect that the very idea of a single most important day in someone’s life is absurd, but if it does exist, I’m sure “the day you got into Harvard” or “the day you found out your cancer had gone into remission” or, my personal favorite, “the day you had your first orgasm” would be closer to the top than “the day you showed off your $8,000 white dress signaling your make-believe virginity while binding yourself financially and emotionally to a man in front of a make-believe deity.” If I ever get married, it will damn well be the best fucking party in my life, the best accumulation of expensive gifts in a single day, but the most important day? I’m insulted.

I'd go further to break down the class assumptions, and to challenge the institution, but to save time I'll just note that marriage and wedding ceremonies seem to go a long way towards promoting a wealthy, straight, white, male interpretation of history.

Apparently this is becoming merely a posting place for cool links...
...but I swear I am busy people. Someday... Anyway, here is an interesting article challenging a modern instance of western imperialist thinking.
