Interesting Posts

Alas, a blog
This post blasts Fox's new show Glee for the stereotyping of a fat black women and a kid in a wheelchair. The post was in the blog's archives, but is still frequently viewed and for good reason. The author has some valid points and many people have posted comments in opposition.
Stuff white people do
This post comments on the Amazon best seller, The Help, by Kathryn Stockett. The novel is NOT recommended to give as a Christmas gift for its false racial dynamics as written by a white author.
WIMN's Voices
In this post, one of WIMN's bloggers comments on how ageism and sexism can work into health plans. She looks at the mammography debate and health care for women is developed.
Two women blogging
Today's post on Two Women Blogging was about sexist paintings in a recently visited restaurant. All of the paintings had a naked woman in a cocktail glass, with a garnish replacing her head. Sexism at its best.
I blame the patriarchy
The most recent post on this blog highlights a woman's attemp in Australia to implement anti-violence-against-women training in public schools. The Australian Family Association spokesperson, John Morrissey, does not approve of the proposed class and thinks it is feminist propoganda.
