The Anti-Choice Agenda Gets Even More Ridiculous

The anti-choice agenda is just getting even more ridiculous with every campaign that they introduce. The latest campaign The American Life League is pushing is The Pill Kills. The message behind this campaign is that the pills kills babies and that by using birth control you are subjecting your body to chemical abortions. [...]

This “blogging event” is being sponsored by Blog Catalog and they are urging all the bloggers out there to blog about human rights and draw attention to the challenges and successes of human rights issues.

Mother’s Day and the Release of No Trespassing

Today is Mother’s Day and no matter how hard I try to forget about this day, it still manages to come, mock me and leave for another year. This day is by far a great day for most people–Mothers for one. It is also a great day for people to show their mothers how [...]

The Infamous ‘Obama Girl’ and Mike Gravel

I think I just may love this man. Shh, don’t tell my boyfriend. Seriously, though, to come across a politician that is so likable and all around seems like one of the nicest men you can meet; not to mention that his ideas for the presidency blow most of the other ideas out of the [...]

Don’t Even Think About Asking a Real Question at a Presidential Q&A

Just about everyone who has been paying attention to politics lately has heard about how McCain called his wife a cunt back during his Senate bid in 1992. That priceless McCain anecdote has also received mass attention due to the publication of The Real McCain, a book by Cliff Schecter. If you haven’t heard [...]

WrongCards Aren’t Only Wrong, They’re Disgusting

I came across this site a few days ago and while the website name alone should have tipped me off to the type of content I would find there, I was pretty disturbed by a few of the images that I saw. With a name like WrongCards, sure, you can suspect that the content is going [...]

Happy International No Diet Day!

Today is International No Diet Day, which I think is a fabulous day to celebrate! I believe that women should not be seen purely as sex symbols and that there is no such thing as a “perfect weight.” So often, when women are trying to reach their “perfect” weight by going on a diet, [...]

Obama, The Radical Feminist

Men’s rights activists aren’t too happy with Obama and his so-called radical feminist agenda. As you can most likely guess, men’s rights activists view feminism as a “dogmatic belief in a malevolent, all-pervasive conspiracy that renders its victims helpless.” …Heh, “victims.” They also believe that (while comparing Obama’s affiliation with Jereimah Wright and [...]

The Abortion Superhero: NOT Funny

Apparently kicking a pregnant woman in the stomach is considered a form of abortion. This is odd because in the world I live in, this is called blatant violence against women and something that people are prosecuted for. I must live on another planet or something, especially since a video of a man [...]

A Lovely Example of Anti-Abortion Extremism

While reading some kick ass feminist news over at Feministing, a picture on their Flickr widget caught my attention. The picture to your left is yet another lovely example of anti-abortion extremism. This picture was taken at the 2004 March for Women’s Lives in Washington, DC. By holding a sign that says something [...]
