Male-on-female violence is everywhere!

Today's media is fully responsible for creating this violent, strong male image that most men feel they should follow. This creates violence towards the weak who are other men who don't hold this image and, more importantly, women. I personally have not been a victim of male-on-female violence physically or verbally, yet, however I know a very close member of my family who has. I will not say her name or how she is related to me; but I will call her Sue for her safety and privacy.
Before I went to college, Sue sat me down to explain the dangers of date-rape and violence. I assured her that I would be fine and will always have my fiance (at the time) and my male friends to protect me at bars or parties. She looked at me with tears in her eyes and warned me that my friends are the ones who I should be most concerned with.
Sue and her best friend Bob have been close friends since high school and both attended Ole Miss together. Bob took Sue to a huge party at his fraternity and everything went perfectly. Bob sheltered her from the other drunk frat boys who hit on her and tried to give her drinks. Sue only took drinks from Bob knowing that they would be safe to consume.
Sue woke up the next morning in the back of her car, naked and bleeding. She had bruises on her arms and legs and her vagina hurt excruciatingly. She realized that she had been date-raped. She ran to the police and called Bob to come to her rescue and to be questioned by the police if he knew who took Sue out of his sight. However, Bob was nowhere to be found and was unreachable. He had cut of his phone and ran to Alabama where they later found him. He eventually confessed that he had date-raped his own best friend and was convicted.
The story horrified me. I never realized that most women who are victims of date-rape are done so by their closest male friends! It's a proven fact! Now I am extremely careful with who I am with and always make sure that I have a sober female to watch over me when I go out, and I sometimes stay sober to watch my girlfriends and offer them rides home before another guy does. It's extremely prevalent and dangerous and I take the precautions needed to make sure that it hopefully never happens to me.

ANTI-CHOICE IS ANTI-WOMAN!!

When Bell Hooks explained that a woman cannot be a true feminist AND pro-life, I complete agreed with her! Women have a bond of sisterhood to help each other reach liberation and freedoms of decision (including abortion). Hopefully nobody is pro-abortion. I am proudly pro-choice and feel that anyone who tells me I'm immoral or wrong is delivering a huge slap to my face! We have all seen or heard about Initiative 26 and how, if passed, it will take away so many freedoms of choice Mississippi women have today regarding how they can prevent or terminate pregnancies. I have decided to become a radical left-winged nut on the subject and to speak out against it, for I feel that will greatly affect our state.
Women have fought so hard in the 20th century to gain liberation and yet, today, we are slowly loosing that power over our own bodies? It completely infuriates me when, upon discussing the topic, men feel the need to put their two-cents in. How dare they!? They are not a woman! They do not have to endure the physical/emotional pains that women who become pregnant out of wedlock must endure for 9 months and beyond! I got into a debate with a man on the "Vote No on Initiative 26" discussion board last night. A male citizen proceeded to tell me that I should just go ahead and vote "yes" just so I will have a clear conscious and better chance of getting into Heaven and that it was only happening in Mississippi and that I should get over it.. Excuse me? My response went as followed: I appreciate your opinions but we're living in the "Bible Belt". First Mississippi and next will be all of the other southern states. Why should a woman resort to transporting herself over hundreds of miles away for something that could be done somewhere within her connivence? The keyword is Pro-CHOICE. If it is our CHOICE as women to terminate our own pregnancies than that is something we as an INDIVIDUAL must decide. Since you bring a religious view into your post, just consider how God's will controls everything. If it is the mother's decision, that is between her and God and she will have to face her own consequences. On the other hand, not everybody believes in God or His will, therefore we as a state should respect their personal beliefs and not try to force our Christian views upon them. No matter what happens with this Initiative, it will not affect you, or other men in ANY way. Think of the liberation us women have fought so many years for. This is the 21st century, it's about time we gained every single right that you as a man have too!

So there ya have it. Exactly how I feel... I am a Christian and feel that it is a decision between mother and God. Nobody should be taking the rights away from a woman on her own body. It's sickening to know that there are people out there that hit below the belt by saying they are "baby killers" and are going to hell. Get real people. If you are a believer in God, understand that He will take control of the situation. It is not mine or your right to make a decision for another individual. Also, not everyone believes in a God, so quite forcing your Bible down their throats! They don't do it to you. Well... that's my bitchin' for today! :) 

Stay Horny My Friends.
