For when the body politic gets wild!
Todd Akin, the Republican nominee for Senate in Missouri seems wicked hella smart having talked to “doctors” who let him know the real truth – that if a rape is “legitimate” the female body will get all fancy and will “shut that whole thing down.” Now it would be lovely if your body would just […]
Kathleen Sebelius, the Health and Human Services Secretary, and I haven’t always been on the best of terms. I was appalled when she overode the FDA recommendations on Emergency Contraception. I’m pretty sure a Health and Human Services secretary had never publicly overruled what the FDA suggested, and this was just bollocks. It’s great that […]
I was glad to see this video this morning – a happy little PSA about not abusing the ladies in your life. Of course it’s sad we need to be reminded, but it’s also important that politics tackles these matters on every level. The sad truth is that we need these PSA’s. Silence about abuse […]
Rep. Lisa Brown made me so happy today when I heard she’ll be performing The Vagina Monologues today on the steps of the capital with Eve Ensler. The general lack of use of the word vagina always blows my mind. People. It’s a body part. For realsies. You are going to discuss and debate abortions […]
This photo speaks for itself. Too much even going on in the media today for me to absorb it all. But, people. Please. Share
Planned Parenthood rarely endorses a candidate, but they just endorsed Obama today. With all the nonsense we have been up against in the past few months fighting to support very basic things like birth control, the idea of a Romney presidency is terrifying for sure. Whether or not you feel jazzed about politics, think Obama […]
Okay. So, Why did it take this long for Jerry Sandusky’s Second Mile charity to be shut down? He has been accused of finding kids to abuse via this very charity. How hard is it to shut that shit down, oh, I don’t know, immediately!? I mean. This was November. And there were 40 counts […]
Kudos to Jay-Z for supporting gay marriage. This is quite possibly one of the most adorable things I have seen all week. He says “I think it’s the right thing to do, as a human being.” Which is just seriously the most adorable. Especially in the hyper masculine, hyper hetero-normative world of hip hop, it’s […]
Oh North Carolina. You exhaust me. I am cynical enough that I wasn’t surprised by the news that North Carolina voted for an amendment to their state constitution to ban same sex marriage. As if their law banning it wasn’t enough. Better make it double secret safe. If you have to defend it that hard, […]
Republicans, Get In My Vagina! from Kate Beckinsale I need a republican to get in my vagina. It is seriously one of those things that you just can’t reconcile. Alas, there are moments of hilarity. Share
