After finding yet another post at the carnival of Radical Feminist of Miss Andrea and reading Ren's amazing post I was inspired to write <a href="http://www.womanist-musings.com/2008/08/radical-feminism-and-cis-privilege.html" rel="nofollow">Radical Feminism and CIS privilege.</a> I have simply had enough of the bigotry. Finally in an effort to deal with personal past shit I wrote, <a href="http://www.womanist-musings.com/2008/08/belts-children-and-discipline.html" rel="nofollow">Belts, Children and Discipline.</a> I am tired of age being used as an excuse by parents to beat their child with belts. It happened to me and continue to effect my life. In response to the skin bleaching story I wrote black women can be beautiful too.

It does a pretty good job at looking at the Bradley (lack of) in 2008. If anybody can't tell; I have the election on my mind. I wish I could tune it out and stop caring/following it so much. That has not been working for me :\ Paul, you might find this post at 538 out on the Bradley effect. It does a pretty good job at looking at the Bradley (lack of) in 2008.

Apparently if your pants don't fit you have to either suck it in or contribute to the multi-billion dollar industry of weight loss products. I'm old fashioned and opt to just buy some new pants, but that's just me. http://menstrualpoetry.com/suck-lose Hope you enjoy! I've also been reading a lot of Dooce.com because her humor makes me happy.
