November 1991 Teen Life: Divorce, Seafood & The Possibility Of A Female President

Start listening

The next U.S. presidential election is a year away, so why not start thinking about candidates outside typical power structures — maybe the first female president could be Lynda Barry! Or Queen Latifah! Or Cindy Crawford even! Then again, if this month’s What He Said is anything to go by, the (good) guys Sassy talks to would TOTALLY vote for a woman but don’t think other hypothetical (bad) guys would, so: better put a pin in this for the next 30 to 60 years. The issue also gets into real girls’ stories of their parents’ terrible divorces; how to get into college even if your SAT scores stink; Karen’s recently deceased friend Aaron; and why you should be at least a little scared of eating fish. You don’t need to be scared of our latest episode, though — come on in, the water’s fine!
