Overheard and Seen at the NOW Conference

Here are a few pictures and stories from the NOW Conference...


One woman told me a story about trying to get her two-year-old daughter to eat her bread instead of just licking the butter off of it. The little girl responded, “My body, my choice.” All the woman could do was laugh and say, “You’re right.” Guess the little girl had been paying attention during those pro-choice rallies!

Another woman told a story about doing some activism at a Borders bookstore. She had gotten in trouble for stickering offensive magazines so she wrote messages on post-it notes and put those on sexist ads and articles. Since post-it notes are removable, she figured it wasn’t really vandalism. But the store could still have kicked her out for doing it. The employees discovered what she was up to and a female employee approached her. But all the employee did was give her a wink wink “warning.”

Spotted wearing brand new Sticker Sisters shirts!
