Thank you for sharing your unique and thought-provoking perspective on the representation of women's bodies in academia. It's refreshing to see someone tackle such a complex and sensitive topic with humor and insight. Your writing style is engaging and I look forward to reading more of your work in the future. Keep up the great work!

There once was an ad for friendship, cottage cheese with the following quote on the top of the package. This is “so fresh it should be slapped”

I was so offended. I stopped buying friendship cottage cheese and wrote a letter to the company. Then I posted it on Facebook and Twitter so I’m sure I could find the picture somewhere in my files. Every time I went to the supermarket this was before the pandemic I looked, and it was still the same so I bought Breakstone about three months later I never received a letter from the company, but they changed the slogan.
