I realize I am a dumb male, but I am trying to do the best I can wth it. There is a girl I like, but due to several things, I can't ask her out or tell her how I feel for a while. That bugs me, but it's not what I'm writing about. We're getting to be pretty good close friends (which I feel is better for the long run anyway), and she's really cool. She's also big into feminism. I've always sort of considered myself a feminist, but never really thought about it too much. So now I'm wondering if I really am becoming more of a feminist due to her influence, or if I'm just sort of wearing it on my sleeve so she'll like me more. I don't like to do things half-heartedly, I feel it would be unfair to myself and to feminism in general. So am I really a feminist? (link)

i think a lot of it is that you really like this girl, so naturally when she tells you about her ideas you tend to be attracted to those, too. so i think you really are a feminist, although you might end up being less of one if/when you stop digging this girl so much. in any case, it's very cool that you're interested in feminism for any reason at all.

I like to run around town in my favorite running shoes, not wearing socks. This is cool because it's relaxing, but not cool because my shoes smell like the living dead. I really, really don't want to wear socks, so besides that, what can I do to cure these things? (link)

baking soda works well. dump some in, and whack the shoes to spread it around. dump out the excess, and your shoes will magically smell better. this also works well for those fabric watchbands...
you could also wear socks. if you're concerned with the appearance of socks, you can purchase socks with really low tops. there are also really thin socks that you might find comfortable. but you really, really don't want to wear socks. you could throw away your smelly shoes and buy a new pair every time you run. that would kind of suck, though.
