Luxembourg was too small to contain her train?
wowwwww. yeah, what hermionepond said above. i read jezebel every day and it make me think and look at things critically and differently, and then islam or muslims are mentioned, and comments like willa's and mscinephile's pop up. as a headscarf-wearing, brown, religious muslim woman raising two children as muslims,…
Next gift exchange I'm sending you one of those joke can of worms that springs out when you open it.
That's preposterous. Anyone who makes broad statements about the lifestyle of "Muslim women" that would encompass everyone from rural Somalia to Kuala Lumpur to London doesn't know the first thing about Islam or women. If you think that 1 billion people can be reduced to an undifferentiated monolith, we can't have a…
It's the idea that all Muslim women are oppressed. It goes along with everyone assuming all Muslim women wear burkkas (worldwide a very small percentage do) when it comes to the hijab (head scarfs) it's the belief that all Muslim women are forced to wear them. While some Muslim women live in culture that socially…
They certainly need "help", but I think the point is that white women think they know what is best for Muslim women and their culture without bothering to understand what Muslim women actually want to change.
But the thing is that you are well within your rights to be an Old Person Who Thinks Hickeys Are Bad during your personal time. But while you are acting in your capacity as my medical doctor, you do not get to pass judgment on my sex life. That is Doctoring 101. Like, I'm sure some doctors think anal sex is icky or…

All you have to do is click right here to donate to Planned Parenthood. I know money is tight for most of us right now,…
Somewhat off topic, but the NYT has an article about fetal pain in the health section today. "Complex Science at Issue in Politics of Fetal Pain" Basically the anti-choice folks are convinced it exists at 18 weeks and science says highly unlikely until the 3rd trimester.
Oh so now Jezebel is calling it rape did you forget when you publish an article where a member staff who still works here basically slut shamed a 13 year old and described the rape as "banging" and an "alleged affair".
Before I spent the last week of August in Steubenville, I only cared about the guilty verdict, which confirmed that two boys had raped a drunk girl
I went from rolling my eyes to actual outrage at this point:
“Yeah, they’re privileged. But they’ve earned it.”
But the bubble is a lot bigger than Steubenville.
"Adults in Steubenville are sick of thinking about how she [the rape victim] feels." And this is why I still don't feel bad for the people of Steubenville. The lack of introspection is staggering.
