Some Feminist Links
Filed Under blogging, feminism, rape and sexual assault, sex work, violence against women and girls | Posted by Cara |
I’m having quite a shitastic morning, and so I unfortunately will not be able to get up a real post until this evening.
But in the meantime, in case you haven’t seen them already, the 54th Carnival of Feminists is now up, and so is the 42nd Carnival Against Sexual Violence.
In the less highly publicized realm, yesterday was International Sex Workers Rights Day. I missed it, but it’s what I plan on blogging about tonight. Ren has some links to other blogs that took part as well as information about sex worker outreach groups.
Also, I thought that this post was cool: you know when you’re feeling really masochistic and for some reason get yourself involved in a debate with an asshole rape apologist, and you wish you had all of the various statistics at hand to shove down their stupid, misogynistic throat? This post compiles a lot of studies that it’s good to have around. (The second link in the post is broken; hopefully the blogger will fix it, but until then it is here (pdf).) Bookmark it!
Got something else you think should be shared? Whether it’s an article, someone else’s blog post or your own, leave it in the comments — but pretty please, use HTML for me.

Holy crap, do you read my blog or something?! I literally just posted about being frustrated by a rape apologist!
