Coucoumellisms

There truly is a very thin line between what is rape and what is not rape. So men, when she tells you outright, that she doesn't want to have sex with you, but you grope her anyway; when she pushes your hands away, but you keep putting them back; when she doesn't get up, slap you in the face and leave, but tolerates it, because she does like you; when she stops pushing your hand away because you are not listening anyway, because she hasn't acquired that self-assurance she needs yet, to really stand up and make you listen, and because she actually still TRUSTS you not to go any further; what do you do? If she has stopped resisting the groping, do you decide to take it further?  Then despite further attempted resisting, when you've managed to arouse her enough that she can't resist anymore, because she'd never been aroused before and she didn't know what it was like, is that all the invitation you need to go on and finish it?  Because now her bo...

... well, not really. I sponsor myself. Actually, this group doesn't even support me, I support them... but here's the message anyway: NARAL calls FFL anti-choice? Puh-leaz.‏ From: Feminists for Life (info@feministsforlife.org) Sent: September 3, 2008 7:50:16 PM The Washington Post noted that, within minutes of the announcement that Alaska Governor Sarah Palin had been named as Senator John McCain’s running mate, NARAL Pro-Choice America sent out a fundraising appeal as well as a text message to its supporters saying the vice presidential candidate is a "member of the anti-choice group Feminists for Life." WE are anti-choice??? What’s so anti-choice about Feminists for Life’s work to promote holistic, woman-centered solutions—including housing, childcare, maternity coverage, and telecommuting options? FFL is all about choices—so that no woman feels that she has no choice but abortion. Which choice is it that NARAL Pro-Choice America doesn’t support? Marital parenthood...

I'm very happy about this pick too... A member of Feminists for Life! The Hostess with the Moosest by MARK STEYN Saturday, August 30, 2008 Over in the Frumistan province of the NR caliphate, our pal David is not happy about the Palin pick. I am - for several reasons. First, Governor Palin is not merely, as Jay describes her, "all-American", but hyper-American. What other country in the developed world produces beauty queens who hunt caribou and serve up a terrific moose stew? As an immigrant, I'm not saying I came to the United States purely to meet chicks like that, but it was certainly high on my list of priorities. And for the gun-totin' Miss Wasilla then to go on to become Governor while having five kids makes it an even more uniquely American story. Next to her resume, a guy who's done nothing but serve in the phony-baloney job of "community organizer" and write multiple autobiographies looks like just another creepily self-absorbed ...

In many ways, I am like any feminist. I believe in women's rights. The right to work, to fair and equal wages, the right to vote, etc, etc. I guess you could say I am a traditional feminist, such as the first suffragistes, who were also pro-life. A feminist such as the ones involved with feminists for life . I am not a bitter, man-hating feminist who thinks that in order to be equal, we must become an adrogynous society. I appreciate men. I think men are the ones who have it hard now. I like a dominant male. I like being told what to do, especially when it is in my best interest. Sometimes women need to be told what to do, because sometimes we forget to relax and have fun, we spend too much time doing what we think is necessary and we forget to just take a break. I had a guy tell me to put my watch away when I took it out to look at it and was going to put it on. He insisted. I complied. No looking at the time when you are spending time together. I've had another guy order me ...

Here's a photo worth a million words. It says a lot about me. Ironically, I will now add some comments, because not everything may be immediately obvious. * I did not want to buy this shirt . It was a sacrifice, for Lent. Because at Lent you are supposed to give up things, and/or make charitable donations. So I gave up money and I donated to Feminists for Life. It's not my fault they sent me this lovely T-Shirt in return. * I am a feminist. Albeit a moderate one. And I am pro-life. And no, this is not an oxymoron. Check it out here . * I am a homemaker. Look at me in the place I spend the most time (besides in front of the computer- ha ha), the kitchen. A messy kitchen by the way, because 1. cleaning is not my number one priority and 2. I always seem to have a bunch of things going on at the same time. * I'm an artist. Check out the pinata in the making behind me. Also, the angle of the shot in this picture (self-posed, in case you couldn't tell, hah!) * I...

Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell by Cat Clark In 1849 Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell (1821-1910) became the first woman to receive a medical degree from an American medical school, and in 1859 became the first woman on the British medical register. She was ardently anti-abortion and pro-woman, choosing to enter the field of medicine partly because she was repulsed that the term “female physician” was applied to abortionists. Born in Bristol, England, Blackwell moved with her family to the United States at the age of eleven. The Blackwell family was very active in the movements to abolish slavery and enfranchise women; Elizabeth’s sisters-in-law included suffragists Lucy Stone and Antoinette Brown Blackwell, and she was a friend to abolitionist novelist Harriet Beecher Stowe. Initially repulsed by the idea, more than one event contributed to Blackwell’s entering the medical profession. “The idea of winning a doctor’s degree,” she wrote, ...
