Introduction I'm a sociologist working at Stanford University as a Thinking Matters Postdoctoral Fellow. Six months before my October 2011 wedding, I decided to live without mirrors... for a year. This blog began as a way to document my no-mirrors project, and has since evolved into a place where I muse, rant, and report on my colliding worlds of sociology, social psychology, contemporary feminism, body image, and beauty culture.
