Um. Why is this story about rape filed under “Odd, but True?” Oh, right because we live in a RAPE CULTURE. I forgot that, just like I forget to thank those brave black women who gave up that good-good to massa because they wanted to. Heh, I guess it’s okay to locate some ethnic pride in the continuous rape and dehumanization of black women.
This is an interesting discussion on partner rape.
Hey brown people! You trying to get to Wiscon? Con_or_bust has got your back.
Congrats to the first graduating class of Urban Prep Academy! Y’all know that we at Hathor aren’t necessarily the hugest fans of single sex education, but I gotta say… Smith College changed my life, as did the Step Ahead/Step Forward program. My uncles, nephews, and fathers really benefited from St. Aug. I think the big thing working for those institutions is a larger commitment to social justice politics, and that they were operating under a kind of intersectional lens linking class, race, and gendered oppressions, vs the public schools where it’s ALL ABOUT STABLE GENDER!

Have a link of possible interest to Sunday Times columnist Minette Marrin claiming “What women want is an end to hectoring by feminists” http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/columnists/minette_marrin/article7060971.ece
And by “interest”, I mean “it may need hacking to bits because there’s some dodgy arguments there”. (Good ol’ “feminism is out of touch with Ordinary Women” raises its head again)
