– “Abel Moreno now has a six-month deadline to show why he shouldn’t be deported, even though police acknowledge that his 911 call was crucial to their uncovering a dirty cop, and even though they agree that he shouldn’t have been arrested.”
– “Bering’s stunning conclusion: Vaginal blood brings either (a) shame or (b) nonchalant acceptance, depending upon which culture you are vaginally bleeding in! Incidentally, feminists have also observed this phenomenon, but they are wrong and he is right, for some reason. Bering explains it all:”
– “the couples with the least stress were the ones with the most rigid divisions of labour, regardless of gender equality (one father is quoted as saying “She does the inside work, and I do all the outside, and we don’t interfere” – might explain why she also is likely to be doing about one and a half times the amount of domestic labour that you are doing, buddy – not only is there less outside work but outside work tends to be less immediate and constant ie. you can leave fixing the back gate for another day but whoever is in charge of feeding the kids has to do it right now).”

The Heavy Girls and Sexy Time post is actually by Silvana. Who is also amazing.
Not sure if this went comment through or not, but the Heavy Girls and Sexy Time piece is by Silvana (aka M. LeBlanc).
Hey, just wanted to let you know in case no-one else had: I didn’t write that Tiger Beatdown post. Silvana, one of our contributors, did. We have bylines above and below the post, if you’re ever confused. Would you mind fixing the attribution? I don’t want to take credit for anyone else’s work.
The TigerBeatdown post wasn’t by Sady – those debunking boots are on Silvana.
oops. My bad on the attribution. Fixing right now.
@Sady Doyle,
Apologies for the misattribution. The author lines don’t come through in Google Reader – this probably means that your WordPress theme is a bit on the obsolete side, and hasn’t specified those tags.
I’ll know to double-check by viewing the original post on your blog in future.
Something to contribute – Flora showed this to me. http://sfappeal.com/news/2010/05/good-vibrations-and-the-clitoris-saving-alien-cult.php -it’s a summary of a controversy over Clitoraid, a charitable organization with connections to the Raelian religion, and some prominent sex-positive feminists. I thought it was a well researched post by Violet Blue.
