It’s not just because retailers are shitty though: many charities are actually REJECTING clothes, as Newsweek reported last year.

Apparently we do.

And how is that not true? Try it with Muslims and their non support of gay rights and support of Sharia law and watch the shrieking commence. If the author broke down white female voting patterns by region and religiousity, I think a clearer pattern would emerge. The above thread mentions abortion and I think that’s a…

For a collection of sites that rails against lumping together all black people (or all Muslims, or all Hispanic people, etc), they sure do like to lump together white people, especially by the worst traits of a particular sub-group. I don’t quite get it.

I think the story here is that white women, just like black women, generally vote in their self-interest. Whiteness has real advantages in finding a job, going to the right school, living in the best neighborhoods, etc. It’s understandable so many of them would want to vote for a candidate that would maintain that…

It starts with an A and ends with “bortion”. THAT is the primary reason and they will never back away from it, and it deserves an article of its very own.

There’s a lot of “WTF white women” in response to the exit polls from Alabama. I mean...wtf indeed would compel anyone, and especially any woman, to vote for a sexual predator? It’s madness. My issue, though, is that I have a really hard time seeing “white women” as a cultural block or identity. What exactly do we…

Especially when you consider the screwed up “submit to your husband” ethos that these women have been marinated in since birth. It’s not an excuse, but it is an explanation.

This just made me chortle. Especially since it was in response to Mortal Dictata whose only nutrition comes from ally cookies.

I think this is an interesting point, and it’s the *only* way I can logic Alabama’s support of Moore. To them, it was a choice between a child molester and a child murderer, and they chose what they perceived to be the lesser of two evils.

Absolutely right! White non-evangelical women went overwhelmingly for Jones.

While white women overall voted for Moore 63 to 34, when you break out evangelical vs non, you get evangelical white women 76 - 22 Moore; non-evangelical white women 74 - 21 Jones. A clue right there

As you single out the admirable voting record of black women, Jewish women, Latinas, Lesbians (of any ethnicity/faith). Not mentioned here are Muslim and Catholic women, who also tend to vote Democratic.

I grew up in Alabama, and I agree. Abortion being THE issue at the ballots was preached from my family and from the pulpit, and it took moving out of the state to reverse the brainwashing. It was framed as, if you voted for a pro-choice candidate you were the problem. Nothing is more important in Southern politics…

One of the women in the class action in Australia said that she told her doctor she was no longer able to have sex, and the doctor told her to just have anal sex, then there was an email chain leaked where he joked about the exchange. Disgusting and horrific.

Just the term “vaginal mesh” makes me clench.

Someone I know worked in a minor role on a class-action case against Vaginal Mesh manufacturers and to hear some of the horror stories—pain, fusing with organs, a shredded penis., divorces from an inability to have sex. Just horrible, horrible stuff.

medical science has been mostly (99%?) dominated by men for the past 300 years or so (I don’t count anything prior to 1700s as “medical science” since the majority of it was based on superstitious nonsense). Since women were not even considered proper “real” people in much of the world until the early 1900's (i.e.…

As always, it’s amazing that as long as humanity has been having babies, we don’t have better solutions for these fairly common complaints.

Look, if the Trumps know one thing, it’s that you don’t win an election with VOTES.
