Melissa Harris-Perry Blasts Indiana Candidate Rep. Richard Mourdock

Oct 28, 2012 1 Comment by

The last thing I wanted to do today was to revisit Richard Mourdock’s idiotic comment about rape, abortion, and God. Yeah, I’ve said enough here and here. And quite frankly, I’m sick and tired of debating about God, his will, or his infallibility. However, I did catch the Melissa Harris Perry Show on MSNBC yesterday [...]

Single-Mom Confuses Son as Brother Years After Dad Impregnates Her

Not to belabor a point, but let’s follow-up on what I wrote yesterday in response to Richard Mourdock’s ridiculous comment. Yes, let’s take another look at the idea that a woman becoming pregnant as a consequence of being raped needs to succumb to “God’s will,” and as such, should not be allowed to legally have [...]

The War on Women Redux: The National Rape Conversation

Aug 28, 2012 No Comments by

As a woman who often labels herself a feminist, and who mostly spends time fighting, tirelessly, for equal rights, I’ve long dreamed for a day where rape would become a major talking piece that the political bigwigs had during election season. And while my dreams have recently turned to reality quite recently, I have questions [...]

Ann Coulter: Obama’s Democratic Base are “Stupid Single Women”

Aug 09, 2012 4 Comments by

I suppose there’s a new definition of stupid. A definition that certainly doesn’t describe any woman opposed to the benefits of access to health care under the Affordable Care Act, which is otherwise affectionately known as ‘Obamacare’. I mean that’s what I think when I listened to Ann Coulter as she spoke to Fox’s Sean [...]

The GOP ‘Obamacare’ Hate Level is Red-Lining: Look Out Canada, Here Comes the Crazies

Jun 30, 2012 5 Comments by

I never thought I’d ever see the day that members of the Republican party would take a stand, and fight for freeloaders who refuse to, well, be responsible. You know, the, “pull yourself up by your bootstraps,” and do the big boy thing that is purchasing health care coverage once ‘Obamacare’ goes into effect in [...]

You’re Pro-Life But Not When It Comes to Women?!

Dec 01, 2011 2 Comments

Sometimes I neglect to write simply because I realize that my writing is driven by more passion then it is by academia. I am just as capable of writing a coherent sentence and balancing an argument with the pro and con of an issue as anyone else with an Undergraduate Degree but sometimes I just [...]

Should We Be Ashamed About Proud Pregnant Black Teens?

Pregnancy Pact or Just Young Black Girls Comparing Bellies? Does It Matter?  I was presented with the picture below and asked to take a stab at making some type of social commentary from it. A group of young black girls with their pregnant bellies distended, smart phones in hand, in a bathroom somewhere rocking khaki’s [...]
