I've never seen a complete episode of "Sex and the City" but I'm fairly certain few of us ( if any ) were born with an Amazon shield on our arm, a sword in our hand and a copy of "Feminine Mystique" under the other arm.
Getting imperfectly to Stage 2 is still a lot better than never even getting to Stage 1. Last edited by C0LLETTE; 05-01-2019 at 11:44 AM. Reason: Read that with a soft tone Homoe...lol |

Saint Amy Of The Blessed Senate
You might think, watching the confirmation hearings for Justice Amy Coney Barrett, that she was auditioning for a role on Modern Family and not on the U.S. Supreme Court. Six of her seven children sat behind her in a freakishly fidgetless row. They were, in the words of Inside Edition, “impeccably behaved.” The Democratic questioners on the committee wanted to know Justice Barrett’s stand on abortion rights, climate change and the limits of presidential power. The Republicans, in contrast, had a little mom pedestal ready (Justice Barrett, a practising Catholic, would be familiar with this pedestal, which is usually occupied by a certain mother in blue). One senator wanted to know who did the laundry in her house. Another called her “a legal titan who drives a minivan.” Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney tweeted a picture of the Barrett brood piling into that minivan with the hashtag #momsrule. ......... Feminism freed women to make choices about motherhood their mothers and grandmothers didn’t have (and also to exercise their rights to reproductive freedom, which Justice Barrett will hopefully honour, even though the prospects don’t look good). You can choose to have a fur baby, or an actual human baby, or no baby at all. None of those decisions make you a saint or a demon, just a person like everyone else. Elizabeth Renzetti Globe and Mail October 16

4B Movement: Feminism in South Korea
Here’s a great news article from Germany (DW) on how women in South Korea are practicing a form of resistance against Asian Patriarchy: No dates, No sex, No marriage and No children. They’ve been practicing this for a few years now but when Roe vs Wade was overturned in our country, their feminist version of resistance went viral. You can click on the link below to see how South Korean women are protesting and resisting patriarchal misogyny in their Asian country.
