Bunnies, it must be bunnies

Morning gentler readers. I`m trying to keep myself awake so that I sleep in tomorrow and in turn survive my shift until 3am. So here I sit, caught up in an atrocity. My arch nemesis, Katy Perry of fake lesbian fame, will be a doll by Christmas.
(see http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1595852/20080929/katy_perry.jhtml)
Frankly, its bad enough seeing and hearing her all over the TV and radio (yes people actually listen to the radio,) now children can collect a 12 inch version of her and they too can toy with bisexuality and/or lesbianism. My issue with Katy Perry is far from hidden. She promotes negative stereotypes for both gay and straight women. Her songs are everywhere with their catchy refrains that anyone will find themselves humming. Her lyrics are camouflaged in plain sight, you don't even know they`re singing something offensive.
I`m going to leave it at that for tonight, but tune in tomorrow for my take on Katy Perry part 2.
