If you woke up this morning hoping that today you’d see something completely and utterly wrong, I’ve got you covered. (h/t Penny)

Funny how the updated cover is noticeably less “My Little Pony.” Maybe we have the Hasbro lawyers to thank?

I find the entire cover disturbing. “Who’s my daddy?,” in either a legitimate fashion (from someone searching for their father) or in a sexual way (some infantilizing BS from a young woman with a sugar daddy), coupled with the My Little Pony, er, “homage” is simply disgusting. There’s no other way around it.

With the soft-cuffs, I strongly suspect it’s the latter scenario and if I ever found that phrase coming out of my mouth, I’d take my ass to a nunnery as punishment. Yeah, welcome to the age of Women’s Lib, sisters. Go infantilize and denigrate yourselves willingly. Good job!

You’re right, it could. But how many times, exactly, have you heard “who’s my daddy?” from a male? In fact, have you ever? Bronies aside (shudder), I never have.

Honestly…from someone who was on the front lines of equal pay and all that good bullsh**t back in the day, I can only shake my head. (And no, before anyone says it, I don’t think that women need to be butch, either. But if you’re going to undo everything that some of us fought for, could you avoid broadcasting it to one and all, making it seem like we’re talking out of both sides of our mouths?)
