More amusing but in no way justifiable annotations in library books:

I'm not sure what I like most, the first writer's apparent belief that the chapter is arguing that it's a good thing that girls' comics promote this, or the second writer's smug assertion that it's a perfectly good solution if you're lucky enough to find the right knight. I wonder if she (I assume) would say the same now? The book is Gender and Generation, edited by Angela McRobbie and Mica Nava, and the chapter is 'Some Day my Prince Will Come: Young Girls and the Preparation for Adolescent Sexuality' by Valerie Walkerdine. The books from the mid 1980s, and it's interesting to see what's changed in girlhood studies since then.
Also, I bought this badge in Stockholm:

Yay! I don't really know what it actually means (my friend thought that it was something about a grand slam), but to me it just means that I have a klubb. A club of FIRE and GRAPES, and a WEIRD BUTTON THING.
