"What happened to the dream of a female president?
She's dancing in a video Next to 50 Cent.The disease is growing, it's epidemic.
I'm scared that there isn't a cure.
The world believes it, and I'm going crazy..."
I'd like to meet:
Naomi Wolf. Though they say you should never meet your heroes. Other people who aren't afraid to describe themselves as feminists. All the family I never met, I had a dream about shaking my deceased ancestors' hands once.

Most mainstream Hollywood annoys me as it is effectually the most, anti-feminist, American ass kissing load of bollocks. Anyone seen Wedding Crashers? Perfect example, it's filmed completely through the male gaze and it leaves women with nothing to relate to.
Television:
Coronation Street because I've grown up with it. I gotta love the classic comedy inspiration of Blackadder,
Father Ted,
Spaced,
Dylan Moran,
Red Dwarf,
Adam and Joe,
Faulty Towers,
Dad's Army,
Peep Show.
Don't get me started on legendary kid's programmes.
Books:
The Beauty Myth by Naomi Wolf; about how images of 'beauty' are used against women - I sincerely recommend this book. Bill Bryson also deserves a hefty mention.
The Hypnotiser by Michael Rosen.
Heroes:
Maggie, Bill and Rachel. Jessie. Naomi Wolf.
