That's where I disagree with you. Christians are called to help the poor and disenfranchised over and over in the Bible. How on earth is it not his job to champion those rights?

I kind of want that to happen just to see :)

I know. I kind of believe the conclave got together and asked "Ok, so who's the best at PR? We need damage control."

I don't think so- I think he's supposed to be God's representative on earth. Who's got the authority?

Countdown to his post where he apologizes if anyone chose to be offended by his words.

I'd think more highly of him if it weren't for this.

I get pedicures with friends every couple months. It's fun. Am I powerful and frivolous?

I'm going to guess that the number of women on the inappropriate material review team is fairly low.

I see your previous one...

I didn't think I was dyslexic, but I read that as Mandy Patinkin and was excited/confused.

Oh, I really, really wish this were completely true. I've got a sister-in-law who is constantly posting things on facebook about how Muslims who don't integrate completely should be sent back to 'wherever they came from', how not being 100% patriotic is the same as siding with terrorists, how governments shouldn't…

Thanks!

Thanks! It makes so much more sense to know that she was living as male when she was on the show. I'm totally of the opinion that gender isn't set in stone and you are whatever you say you are in terms of male/female/neither/both, but I thought there were unofficial 'rules' surrounding drag.

I've never seen RuPaul's show, but I always thought that dressing in drag meant having an un-altered male body and using clothing, makeup, and accessories to achieve the desired look, and that it didn't mean you were transgender. Carrera is transgender, but is also a drag queen. Since she's going to be in very…

I work for the Canadian branch of an American company, and occasionally some of our southern coworkers come up for various reasons. A few months ago I got into a conversation with one of them who honestly believed that the day was coming when the American people were going to overthrow the government. Not…

Cooking in general has always been really weird when it comes to gender roles. In the home, cooking is traditionally the wife's job, and gender roles have been built up around the fact that since cooking is a way of nurturing, women are naturally better at it. Yet almost all top cooking jobs are considered men's…

If you haven't already grabbed Malala's book, you should get it. Right now. Amazon's open!

I agree with you. Two of my coworkers are having an affair that everyone knows about. He's married with three young kids, and she's single. I totally see her as an idiot for falling in love with him (and I sincerely believe she does), but he's the scumbag who's cheating on his wife and risking his family. She…

There are so many other better ways to get revenge.

In most ways, I feel way more comfortable with my body, flaws and all, now that I'm in my 30s than I ever did when I was younger. I've even learned to like my over-sized butt! I will admit, though, to being obsessive about my skin. I'm fanatic about staying out of the sun, just spent over $100 on a single product…
