Oh god, just reading about the women being probed while all on fours and held down while being butchered without anesthesia made me clench my vaginal muscles and bite down on my lip to keep myself from crying out. Goddamn.

or just be white

AND not married to HER. She shouldn’t be banging anybody but a husband she wed under Church auspices.

I was gonna ask, I’m not Catholic but isn’t the church’s position on abortion just as clear and specific as the church’s position on premarital sex with married men?

It’s that bullshit sliding scale of sin. Clearly sex outside of marriage isn’t that bad but abortion and contraception are the worst. I have to wonder how that gets decided.

And she is NOT married. I mean when my catholic wife and I got it on pre-marrieds, we did not pretend it wasn’t a sin in her church’s eyes. And we just smiled and enjoyed ourselves.

And she seems to be ignoring the fact that the pro-life movement “reaching out to single mothers” tends to be reaching out to take their babies. The traditional pro-life model is that unwed mothers go to a special “home” and come back sans a baby that they will never see again and may never admit to having had.…

“There were some...very high-profile people who are supposedly pro-life, who knew me and heard about what happened, and who didn’t reach out,” she said. “I thought it was very telling … You see these people saying, ‘Oh, we should reach out to women with unexpected pregnancies and let them know they’re not alone’—and…

Speaking up JUST TO SAY “not all white women” is indeed... offensive.

Can you only speak out in regards to how it effects your self image as a white woman tho? Literally can’t say anything else?

I think it starts with just assuming your kid will be kind forever, avoiding difficult conversations because they’re “too young”, then writing off their problematic behavior because there’s no way your kid could be like that. He probably never had a conversation about race growing up. Probably taught in public schools…

It pisses me off that people suggest James Hewitt is Harry’s father just because they both have red hair. There is loads of red hair in the Spencer family, but people seem to ignore the fact that kids inherit traits from their maternal side as well as their paternal side.

Hey, do you think maybe Jez could do an article on what the ACLU is and how it works? This weekend I’ve seen a lot of people on the internet in general who don’t seem to know. Not just people who dislike the ACLU, which is absolutely fine and their own business, but people who seem to have misunderstood what it does.

A trailer park would be more appropriate.

I see them right here on Long Island all the time.

Can we just take a moment to focus on the real issue: Are white allies getting too little credit, or not enough credit?

I have a cousin who posts a lot of “proud of the Confederate flag”crap on his Facebook. I’m now prepared to throw all decorum out the window and ask what unit his relative served in. Since he can’t, I’ll remind him it was Company B of the 58th Pennsylvania Infantry.

He was Diana’s spitting image in his youth and then somewhere in his late teens/early 20's, Charles’ genetics annexed his face. And not for the better.

I’m William’s age and I used to think he was so hot. Now, not so much. It’s not even that he’s older and balding. Please. I’m not as young as I used to be either, but I feel like he used to look like Diana and now all I see is Charles. Ugh.

He’s not marrying me so I don’t see what I should be excited about.
