Wrote this in the car on the way to work this morning. It's about not being a situational feminist. Feedback? http://www.battymamzelle.blogspot.com/2013/01/feminism-my-convictions-are-not.html#.UQaThr9lWSo

Q: I am the parent of a young son. I catch him experimenting with what I suspect might be the "n word." I try to tell him not to say it, but he can't figure out which word I'm referring to unless I say it myself. Should I say the "n word" to my child, just to clarify? Read more

Just posting this to bring some joy to your morning.

Just reread this 50 Shades review for fun and it's just as hilarious the 15th time. Thought I'd share! http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/340987215

Posted in the forum yesterday for some help getting sources for a takedown post I was writing on Rape Culture. Thought a few of you ladies might be interested in reading it. http://battymamzelle.blogspot.com/2013/01/feminism-rape-culture-male-privilege.html

JEZZIES I NEED HELP. I have been going back and forth with a dumbass friend of someone I know on facebook for 2 days ( I know, I KNOW...) over the existence of rape culture, male privilege and the need to tell women to be careful when they go out, the result of which is THIS:… Read more

This fucker is CRAZY. I am literally stepping back from my computer screen because he is so belligerent. This doesn't help your cause pro-gun people!

Found this great article on Big Bang Theory and why it's not as awesome as we think. It makes really good points, but now I feel bad about loving the show :( Read more

So I watched Miley Cyrus's "LOL" movie, and I surprisingly liked it. It wasn't amazing by any means, but I think it portrayed teen relationships pretty well, and Demi Moore looks AMAZING in it. But I suspect I like it more because Miley has managed to convince me that she is secretly awesome over the last few months.… Read more

So a friend posted this to facebook a second ago. While I understood and agreed with his sentiment, my first reaction was that this was cissexist because not all women have vaginas. But it occurred to me that only women with vaginas (and corresponding reproductive systems) have to worry about reproductive rights. For…

Ladies, I've been ill with the flu for about a week now. I thought I was getting better and up to yesterday I was down to just congestion and a really racking and constant cough. But twice yesterday I hacked so hard that I VOMITED. Now I'm kind of freaked out because vomit comes from your stomach and phlegm from your… Read more

Just found this article while doing some feminist digging on sexism. It talks about the idea that it is the male feminist's responsibility to create safe spaces for men to tackle the aspects of the patriarchy that affect them, and why this hypothetical space is different from an MRA type group. I think I agree, and I… Read more

Possibly/Probably insensitive question: Why do people who have lost their hair to chemo/chosen to shave it off in preparation for chemo always cover their bald heads? There's nothing wrong with being bald, and I feel like covering it up is like attaching an "I HAVE CANCER" beacon to your head. I have seen very few… Read more

So, I have this guy friend who identifies as feminist. Awesome right?! Read more

There is a mild rumor going around on twitter that CB and Rihanna are engaged, or at least that he proposed. DEAR GOD LET THIS NOT BE TRUE.
