The Mouldy Scent of Static Developments – What is a Newspaper Mama?

August 30, 2016 by femalereligion

“What is a news paper?” is Lux’ questions as a 5-year-old. “It’s the large papers you can buy at the Späti and kiosks. No….I would not try to swipe a newspaper, my love – the ink smudges as easy as the news is vaporizing in people’s mind. When you read a paper your fingertips will get an intellectual makeover, covered with a hint of black moulded ink. Unlike its news, which does not seem to have that kind of impact on […]

And This Is Only The Beginning – Was This My Preview On The Future Teenager Lux?

September 3, 2014 by femalereligion

Kicked out of my own bed by my 3,5 year old kid in the middle of the night! Arguing in anger. Harsh words of a hardly one meter high little boy merging German and Dutch into a non-comprehensible language of utter anger. Accusations of being a bad, bad…bad…. bad… mom who should go live somewhere else. Find another house. Just Go! Intense arguing and fierce stubbornness. Even after a morning bribe, whilst sprinkling his Soy Muesli with Chocolat Flakes. Giving me the cold shoulder […]

Say Never – Adjusting My Vocabulary For Life, Love And Career

June 23, 2014 by femalereligion

The more convinced my NO is leaving my mouth, the more it is bound to happen. And it does not even take long before I embrace it with all my heart without any complaint or even urge of recollection. NO is a word I’d better not use in my vocabulary anymore, when it comes to matters of life, love and career. It’s completely useless, since I have to justify myself (and I do not want to). NEVER – however – can be taken […]

Craving For Change Again: Am I Adventurous Or Plain Stupid?

January 30, 2014 by femalereligion

When a newbee career woman interviewed me and asked me who my female role model was and what career goals I set in life, I was baffled! “I did not have one when I was your age – 20ish – dear!” She looked at me shattered, as if she was wondering how on earth I could have survived and live my life as I am doing today. No. Not everything runs smoothly. Do not believe the currated ‘me’. Every single time […]

Will I Ever Be A Laced Lady – Guess I Am Too Chicken

February 6, 2013 by femalereligion

I convinced several of my boyfriends to get a tattoo. As a little girl I thought it was extremely cool to have a dad with a tattoo, which he gained as a young sailor in far Asia. My brother is covered with tattoos. And I…. am chicken. Making excuses like “A tattoo is bound to go ugly, when I get all old and wrinkled.” Wrong! Stumbled on these pictures of former circus ladies of the early twenties – Betty Broadbent, Maud […]

The Gym – My Tribe Of Torture

January 7, 2013 by femalereligion

January 2013 kicked in. And a stampede of sweaty people is assembled in one dedicated area, filled with awkward attributes. The Gym! My personal place of horror. Sure it is good for your health and fat reduction is a grand promise, but I am just not fit to cope with this tribe of dedicated, sweaty, happy sporting people. A sports outfit does not come natural to me and I often wonder who the hell that blown-up-faced broad is, watching at […]

Vintage Selfies Must Have Looked Like This – I Like

February 21, 2012 by femalereligion

If there was Facebook then, selecting a Facebook pic must have looked a bit like this. Try outs, over and over. All is visible and real. What you see is what you get. The Selfie. Quite the opposite from the selfies nowadays, which I often find stunningly unreal. Overdone personal branding which leads to a disruptive connection between virtual and real life. What is it exactly you want to tell? Taking pics today is about tagging with scattered objectives. This […]

The Mommy Transformer I – The Small Things In Life That Change

October 30, 2011 by femalereligion

When fashionable stains and washes of your garment are not related to any current fashion statement When you develop a special ‘nose’ for kids doe instead of Tom Ford Essence When the object closest to a vibrating sex toy is the vibrating kitchen machine in your hand to mash food When your Ceasarean section informs you about a weather switch before the weather man can When the Alexander McQueen Skull clutch has been exchanged by a diaper clutch When you […]

What Women Can Learn From Male Careerists – The Spartans Phalanx Formation

September 26, 2011 by femalereligion

If there are male readers, keep reading. Since I am about to give you a compliment on your behalf. Because what female careerist can learn from male careerist in the hunting fields of the corporate world is the Spartans Phalanx formation. Spread out, fight, conquer but always regroup to one rectangular mass formation and share the loot later. Predominantly in business career circles – to keep it in Googles terms – men keep flocking together. If one pops up again […]
