Tejanas unite! I’ve also heard Texican, which is pretty funny. I used to hate Chicano when I was growing up in San Antonio. I just felt it demanded a particular type of political activism I felt uncomfortable about (like kicking all the Anglos out of Texas), but now it’s my fav (though I’m still cool leaving the…

Don’t be messing with my accordion music! God bless the queso. :)

We are AMAZING! I gave up trying to control my hair. I walked into the salon two weeks ago and said cut it so it looks crazy. Soy yo!

I didn’t wear glasses then, but am totally thinking about getting them NOW.

I liked your concept add-on. I mean it’s kind of the point. Do you, girl! Do you! And yeah this song is not meant for D. Trump. Hence the video of the little Latina. I was a pudgy Latina kid with crazy awesome hair and so I feel some serious kindred spirit with this girl. I wish there had been a song for me like this…

Yeah, this definitely stood out to me. Like how many women can say they have experienced no harassment in their lives! As a gen X lady, I hope that is more and more, but let's be real!

Older and wiser, the amount of sexism she dealt with was disturbing, coupled with it being a case…

I had just settled in for a serious work session, having exhausted every gawker media site's offerings. And then Shade Court gets posted. Now, an hour lost (but enjoyed) reading and then of course chatting with friends about the awesomeness of Kara Brown's Shade Court. I'm glad your back to educate the fools who don't…

Thanks! The thing is I always feel like I failed her by letting us get tricked into the wrong clinic at first. I mean I know that's not our fault, but I wish I had stopped it from happening. The whole experience motivated me to become an escort, but shortly after I moved to a state where escorts aren't needed. I give…

Yes! What my friend and I experienced was awful. People saying things; trying to pressure us not to go in the clinic. Promises to help raise the kid if she had it (no doubt a lie). Terrible!

One of my worst experiences as a grown-up lady was going with my friend who was having an abortion and encountering the many layers of unnecessary emotional trauma in order to have an abortion. One component of what made it terrible - the people saying things outside the clinic. We had just been duped by one of those…
