Palin's Choice
I love the thought of women ascending to high office. While women haven't hit the executive office yet, many fine and talented woman have been in the Senate, Congress, and cabinet positions for decades. As a child of the 70s I myself am abundantly gifted with the benefits of the 70s woman's movement. But the thing that bothers me about Sara ...

In disagreement
The course of the abortion discussion seems to miss the point of the entire issue. By the time a pregnancy comes around, the biggest decision has already been made- to have sex. Yes, accidents and rapes happen, but we're talking about consensual sex here. For anyone who decides to have sex, they are willingly deciding to enter themselves into ...

Re: Feminism ended Marriage/Family
I came to this very interesting post thread a few days late, by way of Blue Skies by way of another Responder to both Blue Skies and MichaelBernard1 on the Iraq War exegesis as to ''how we got here.''

Sex outside of Marriage & Man's Arrogance

If one has never visited or taken part there in, one can watch The Wire, Season 4, to get a fictional, yet poignant and masterful portrayal of ...

In their own words (inaugural San edition)
As you scan through this thread replying to this post or that, all the while thinking you know with whom you are dealing, make sure you don't miss this (10/22/2007 8:05 PM): San: ''Actually, the HPV vaccine DOES prevent cervical cancer. Not all cases, not 100%, but it has been proven to prevent it under certain circumstances.'' Funny, it ...

Prepare for less time for sex
I think that this lady better get over it. She's never going to have sex again if she has to be perfect in order for her to have a love life. Wait until she gets 3 hours of sleep a night and smells like sour milk and spit up. Having said that, I must add that I do realize it's hard to feel sexy when you're hugely pregnant, if only because one ...
