I hope he also sat with and listened to women for whom having an abortion was not an issue born (pun intended) of crisis but of choice. Yes, it is critical that women in difficult situations not be forced to carry a child to term in already extremely challenging circumstances. It's just as important though that…

Correct. And if there were a legitimate religious reason, I think it's only fair to apply it equally so I think you should be able to refuse service to divorced people, alcoholics, Jews, Atheists, people who take the Lord's name in vane, people who covet, gluttons, etc. etc. Good luck passing a law that says you can…
I don't get it either, I read the post and the linked article looking for some explanation, no matter how stupid, but no. Now I'm trying to figure out what you can do with a pad that could be so frigging dangerous, I got nothing.
My girlfriend hates the word "panties"!
I think you're onto something. My mother's mantra has always been, "If I was such an awful parent, why are you and your brother such happy, successful adults?"
Mark, what Selena did is inexcusable. It is a place of worship and you respect that. I have lived in Dubai for 5 years by choice and I respect the customs and social expectations here because I am a guest of the UAE. If I don't like it then I leave. It is no different than going into St. Peter's and doing the same…
Hey, did you hear about Kim Kardashian's butt on the cover of Paper magazine?
Really? My reaction was more "fuck overly authoritarian states", religion has very little to do with it. It's just a handy tool in that region to control people and impose a horribly authoritarian system, much like the terrorism scares are a handy tool for eroding civil rights and passing absurdly authoritarian laws…
"natural" death. On this end of things, through the logic of "natural" life, this means the healthcare industry needs to be destroyed, yes?
Apparently not. :-/
- Do you get the fact that exactly 18 years after abortion was legalized the crime rate dropped significantly. Fewer unwanted children = lower crime rates. If you are a man you really need to get over it. It is an issue that you will never have to face. It is a personal issue between the woman and her medical provider.…
Let's think of the hypothetical children while not thinking of the actual ones at all.
Fair eggs are overcooked. Have one made with a soft boiled egg, proper breakfast sausage with sage, breaded in saltine cracker crumbs. You cut into it and the yolk oozes. When it meets your lips, you have a "Harry met Sally" moment. Then we'll talk.
And I'm tired of rich people (minority) running this country too.
As a voter, here are the questions I am asking myself.
Why do you go to Penang and eat ramen noodles? The food in Penang is as you say "absolutely mind blowing." I hope you've tried the Penang Assam Laksa, The Penang Prawn Noodle Soup, and so on....I miss it so much.
It highlights something poignant: being a member of a minority has costs, like it literally costs more in money to live somewhere tolerant. Because tolerance is desirable, like leafy trees and good schools. It costs more to deal with the anxiety you face coming from a mixed race family- more in time spent with…
Maybe this will finally put to rest the rumors (and I mean rumors that circulate among doctors who then give bad advice or refuse to provide IUDs to their patients) that women who haven't given birth can't have an IUD. There's no better way to cause a woman to give birth than to irrationally deny her access to the…
That couple remains the most enabling, codependent set of people I have ever had the misfortune to see on television. And, I mean, I watch Dance Moms, for crying out loud.
