Back when Smallville was the `It' show, being likened to Lana Lang was the best compliment you could get. Beautiful and docile,the object of every guy's affections.But she only had eyes for one boy. Her high-school sweetheart, the boy-next door, Clark Kent.

This is really embarrassing but i even got a green stone necklace and wore it all the time, pretending it was kryptonite. Cut me some slack, i was 14. WIth long brown/black hair and a green stone necklace, i could pretend i was Lana every time i wore the necklace and tied up my hair.

Now, i realise i am nothing like Lana Lang at all. And i will never BE her. 

Sarcastic and stubborn, loves poking her nose into everything, stands up for herself and her close friends.

I think i might be a Lois Lane.

So , as Lois Lane, how did she deal with the fact  that a part of Clark's heart belongs to Lana forever, the endless comparisons from peers and wondering if Clark would ever fall for his best friend , Chloe Sullivan?

Lois Lane believed in Clark Kent, their relationship and most of all, herself.

Also, she lives in the present and looks to the future.

Maybe i should as well. 

Now that's educational television. 

I can't imagine dealing with the aftermath. To be very honest, i think i would just kill myself. We're so sheltered in our society, unaware of the kind of  patriarchal fuckery that exists elsewhere.  

These creatures who call themselves men  in the article can throw acid to a certain part of their anatomy.

IMAGES ARE REALLY GRAPHIC.

That's the kind of person that's worth sticking with." - The dad from JUNO.
