ANNOYING GIRLZ ZINE
[shessoannoying.tumblr.com]
submissions open for new zine by & for annoying girls.
due march 31 2019 to [theannoyinggirlz@)gmail.com]
CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: ANNOYING GIRLZ ZINE
- do something unladylike in public? annoying.
- call someone out for being racist/sexist? annoying.
- made a joke that a man would have gotten laughs for? annoying.
- dare to be anything but a docile young lady? sooo obnoxious.
- voice your needs? omg. why is she so annoying.
how many times has every woman been called ANNOYING in her life? how many young girls grow up being told ANNOYING is her main personality trait? why don’t we talk about this more? ANNOYING is a form of gender nonconformity that we are all punished for at some point.
what’s it’s like growing up as an Annoying Girl? what’s it like being an Annoying Woman in your job, in classrooms, in your relationship, in your head, in public? how does ANNOYING manifest at the intersection of race, class, culture, religion, ability, sexuality? what’s the funny, the ridiculous, the political, the angry, the devastating of ANNOYING?
let’s make chicken soup for the annoying soul. submissions open for art, photographs, screenshots, poetry, prose, fiction, memoir, essay to anyone who has ever been an annoying girl.
