"Time to break the silence on injustices against women"
The title of this post should make the intent pretty clear. We as women need to take just a few minutes of our time to break the silence. All over the globe women are being tortured, raped, mutilated and enslaved. The more we shout that "IT IS NOT OKAY!" perhaps the more voices will join in the chant. The more voices there are the louder we get. With women working together to help each other stop these horrors from occurring and punish those that would do them, we can deafen them with our outrage. I for one hope their ears bleed until they die..wishful thinking and all.

Yes..it has been a verrry long time!
I've been gone quite awhile. Primarily because I moved..got flooded for the 2nd time in a year and then proceeded to move about 5 more times over the course of 3 months. Then I had my wisdom teeth pulled, and now I am going on my 4th week with laryngitis. All very exciting, but mostly annoying. I'll be trying to pay a teensy bit more attention here so expect more posts a lot more often.

My First Follower..Was A Spammer!
How exciting it is for a new Blogger to get their first follower? Extremely! Until you realize they are only following you in order to Spam in your comments section. My first follower had the nerve to Spam about meeting "Hot Pakistani Girls." Really? On the GirlzStrong Blog you put up ads that are for sex hotlines? Oddly enough Silent Tears (My one and only follower, feel free to STOP following) added his Spam under the Rape aXe condom Post. I find that strange. If my lonely follower happens to soon disappear I'll consider this post a success.

What Women Want… | BeyondJane
What Women Want… | BeyondJane
An article to give you a laugh and make you smile. Those of you who are often your best friend's free therapist will recognize a lot of these. What women want seems to be the age old question that's never going away. Since men claim to not know what women want I think it's high time we just came right out and told them. So what do women really want? What do YOU want?

Ladies, Buy A Cup of Coffee and Help Fight Human Trafficking! It Doesn't Get Any Easier Than That!
Coffee Shops Fighting Human Trafficking | Bizcovering
Alright, I came across this article and had to share it. There are several coffee shops that are giving big to help stop human trafficking all over the globe. Human trafficking is not just a human rights issue because while children of both sexes are often victims girls and women will always be the most vulnerable. That makes it a GirlStrong issue. So get out there and buy a cup of coffee from the shops listed in the article if you're a caffeine drinker. Or you can join the movement and donate to stop the TRAFFIK Here.

Check Out The Condom That Bites
Here's the deal, a brilliant (in my opinion) South African Doctor named Sonnet Ehlers created and is now distributing the world's first anti-rape condom. Apparently there is some argument as to whether or not the device is humane. Really? Please, please point these idiots out. That's all I ask. Who ACTUALLY thinks that a rapist's penis should be treated humanely?
This new condom bites down on a rapist and must be surgically removed. Naturally when said rapist goes to have it surgically removed he'll most likely be arrested. I think that's more than fair. (I still hold that rapists and child molesters should be shot in the head. Problem solved.) So yeah, a biting condom, a little surgery and a quick arrest and conviction sound more than fair to me.
There is a second argument that discusses the possibility that getting snared by a biting condom would likely piss a rapist off and make it more likely that he would kill his victim. Maybe. But frankly I don't buy it. For the most part (twisted though our justice system is) murderers still serve more time than rapists. Once bitten by the condom, the rapist is as good as caught. Now how low does the rapists IQ have to be to realize he's better off going down for rape than for murder? Also, considering the way men curl up like slugs upon being kicked in the family jewels, I think we can safely assume these rape victims have a good 10 minutes or so to get away while the rapist stares in utter shock at the terrifying contraption now painfully attached to his dick.

A poll just for fun...all those in favor of a bullet say Aye!

Welcome!
This first post, I'm dedicating to my big sister. This is the chic that I look up to. The gal that hears my every complaint and holds me up when all I want to do is fall down. Fact is, very few people will probably ever read this blog because there are millions of blogs just like it. But I'm going to write it anyway because it matters to me. That's another quality I have my sister to thank for. She takes my "why bother attitude" and pretty much slaps me upside the head with it. Of course I should bother! We all should bother when something is important to us. So, for what may very well be my only reader I'd just like to say "Welcome and thank you for stopping by."
