i will probably go to my grave scratching my head over why some women disavow feminism ... all i can figure is that either they are terrified of rocking their own boats and, lest they be tempted to try, don't want to watch other women doing so successfully ... or, having made their their beds by following all the…

agreed ... this is what my hair is gonna be like in my next life

when i lived on the border of a housing project in chicago and had blond hair down to my ass, my locks occasionally got manhandled on the bus ... it didn't really bother me, and it was certainly preferable to the occasional rush-hour ass grab, because my hair is just a dead thing that happens to be attached to my head…

unless, of course, i become the ceo of a major american corporation and seek to raise my family according to my own instincts and standards

given that average annual snowfall for moab, hat[e]-u-spelled-backwards is 10+ inches, i hope like hell that mitt doesn't have "snowball's chance in moab of occupying the whitehouse"

this is not a first for oprah, who actually wore an afro in the 70's while working as a tv anchor in baltimore ... she was told by a producer, however, that her hair was messing up the green screen, so she started perming ... still, there was a brief period in the 80's when she went natural again ... garnering much…

"But what about women, you may ask, can they feel pain?"

the woman, who represents a political party that seeks to enact christian principles through policy, tells the world that marissa mayer will be mothering wrong and setting a bad example for other women if she does not take extended maternity leave ... however, when she herself did not even take the mandated amount of…

the christian democrats explicitly seek to apply christian principles to public policy ... and those principles are derived from the bible ... so, whether or not give lip service to the big book, they are in practice ruling according to its tenets

classic freakin' christian conservative: "i will, through my infallible understanding of the bible, tell everyone else how to live their lives ... the rules, however, do not apply to me"

while i don't doubt the educational benefits to women learning in a segregated environment, i do question the long-term ramifications of "separate but equal" for the same reason i object to all-male golf courses ... few upper-level managers get their jobs by sending out resumes ... they get their jobs through "hot…

gabby should have spent less time practicing and more time primping ... 'cause it's better to win silver while looking glam than to win gold while looking like a natural, healthy, exceptionally-accomplished young woman

i've always wanted to be an asshole cat in my next life, slinking around and not giving a shit what anyone thinks of me ... now i want to be an asshole goat that does wall jumps off of other goats with impunity ... 'cause that is one happy looking kid

i think that the reddit "ask a rapist" thread goes a long way toward making it clear to men that having sex with a partner who is not actively engaged in the act is likely rape and likely to have consequences, even if one is just haunted by a guilty conscience ... it is an unprecedented, true-life challenge to the…

well, it is so much easier to help a girl risk her life in surgery than to help her to rise above others' cruelty and/or teach the other kids to pull their heads out of their asses ... let's just hope that everyone from here on out accepts nadia for who she is, even though being misjudged by others is pretty much a…

let's teach kids that everyone should have the same exact values, specifically that female sexuality should be suppressed and that individualism is bad ... yeah, that's my america, the land of the freeeee!

just think: one day, some of these women may reproduce and inculcate children with their values

so, when the forum accepts advertisements from a cororation, they check to make sure that everything that company is doing is in compliance with state laws?

i didn't know i had one! but i did forge my mother's signature so that i could attend sister vincent's birds & bees class in 6th grade, and she was pretty clear that any action under the underoos required the sacrament of marriage ... but that was before being christian equaled being a patriotic american ... i'll bet…

you know what? i'm willing to do my part, but only if we have a vagina draft with no educational or "there's a boil on my ass" exemptions
