petitefeministe:
David Mitchell: Andy Gray and Richard Keys have finally met their Waterloo. I’m glad.
It’s hard to have any sympathy for the Sky Sports Two, victims of their own breathtaking arrogance
“The game’s gone mad,” says Richard Keys.
“I know. Women just don’t understand the offside rule.”
“Course they don’t, Andy.”
“Napoleon.”
“Napoleon, sorry.”
“It’s to do with wombs,...

One protester was arrested for posting leaflets through the doors of the store, and a dozen or so protesters were left recovering on the street.
Legal observers also state that they saw police with tasers and guns.
Boots have...

fuckyeahgenderstudies:
We just found out that one of the leading figures in the LGBT movement in Uganda, David Kato, was murdered yesterday in his home. This awful tragedy makes clear what’s at stake for Brenda if she is forced to return.
Will you join more than 10,000 people in 85 countries and sign this urgent letter pressuring U.K. Home Secretary Theresa May to stop Brenda’s...

They are usually short words, three to five letters, with letter combinations which crossword constructors find useful in the creation of crossword puzzles. This is frequently because short words that start with a vowel are needed in every...

Don't say rape when you don't mean rape. →
nathanonline:
There are many things rape is not:
consensual sex
affectionate contact
a bear hug
a tackle
eye contact
an argument
a surprise
overburdening
an athletic loss
a neutral metaphor
There are only a few things rape is:
forcing sex on a person
despoiling a population or place
[a mustard plant or grape residue]
No one rapes your Internet connection, or rapes you in a...

“Coming into a feminist conversation with, “Have you considered that sometimes...”
– The above is a great excerpt from a post at Fugitivus a couple years ago. The post is longish, and definitely worth a read, but this particular quote stood out.
You can probably imagine the stupid ass shit that doesn’t get out of The Border House moderation queue. ”HAVE YOU CONSIDERED THAT MEN ARE...

We were very interested to hear from George Thindwa, chair of Malawian Association of Secular Humanism, about a recent encounter he had with an evangelical Christian preacher while travelling on a bus to the Malawi’s capital, Lilongwe. Like Nigeria’s Leo Igwe, whose work we have reported on here, George is a fearless campaigner against religious abuses, including the persecution of...
