From Carleton U's Women In Science & Engineering (WISE):
Carleton Offers a Workshop on Preventing Dating Violence -- Aimed at Guys.
From Feministing:
Ask Professor Foxy: How Do I Handle My Boyfriend's Sex Work? On what to do when you're sex-possitive, but know that your partner's job is hurting/scaring them.
From Shakesville:
Comic Fail -- On this morning's XKCD. Which was, I think, absolutely perfect. Right up until the last panel. :-P
From Pandagon:
And that’s why they invented the word 'systemic' -- On racism and the US healthcare "debate".
AND
Searching for Whiteopia (A Book Review) -- On living in a self-segregated bubble. These places sound an awful lot like Barhaven, Orleans and Kanata. "Lego Land", as Lenny calls it.
And now on to the really awful stuff (where we talk about other systemic things that suck):
From Questioning Transphobia:
Cis parolee sought in murder of woman. On the way the media talks about murdered trans women in ways that un-person them as well as un-gender them. This is systemic. Pay attention to this.
From Tiger Beatdown:
"I found two [headlines pertaining to MacKenzie Phillips] that were not [fucked up]! one was on MTV news and it read: “Mackenzie Phillips Claims Her Father Raped, Drugged Her.” one was on E! and it read, “Mackenzie Phillips: I Was Raped By My Father.” Now! you could find some problems with these headlines! BUT, every other source was like “Mackenzie Phillips Confesses Sex Affair With Dad.” leaving out the part where it became “consensual” after several rapes." -- About how the media writes about rape as though it was "just another type" of sex. This is also systemic. Pay attention to this, too.
And now for the less awful, and possibly even awesome, stuff:
From Feministe:
A seven year old feminist speaks articulately about what that term means to/for her.
AND
Why Feminist Bloggers Kick Ass.
From The Angry Black Woman:
Short Fiction Featuring Writers of Colour -- Featuring our very own Tithenai!! :-D
AND
I Want an Earth Ship. Includes links for building in a cold climate! (Tchang, I'm looking at you!)
- TTFN, :-)
- Amazon. :-)
