Ok, more politics...

About the burqa thing - -

Right-wing Christians, as we now, are all hypocrites. They use God as their advocate to justify their evil plans. McCain won't make us wear burqas, but he WILL increase censorship. It's all about supply and demand. Let me explain.
If you make the breast forbidden, it becomes a commodity to be bought and sold. The more something is considered unorthodox, the more people want it. Hence, supply is limited, demand increases, prices go up.
Only in America could someone become a millionaire off of Girls Gone Wild. Republicans are all hypocrites, and they are all about making a buck. So yes Moby they dehumanize women, but they do it opposite the burqa method - allow the status quo, but censor it, achieve the supply and demand status as I just explained, increase the price of the breast, thus make women's bodies a higher-price commodity. More money - higher labor demand - increase prices of basics, such as food, gas and utils, drive women into prostitution! THAT'S the evil plan!

hey moby. love the blog (yeah, i know how much you hate that word ;)
i'm a woman, and i make the same as men in my field. i do construction work and belong to a union. i consider myself lucky, because i know that in other fields where there is no possibility of unionization, women are discriminated against (i may experience discrimination in my work, but at least i know i am being paid equally).

unfortunately, i think that until we get to a point in our society where men routinely share equally in childcare and housekeeping, this won't change. it is a default assumption by most americans that when a child is born, the woman will stay home to care for it, and in many cases this is still true. this causes employers to value women less due to a perceived inability to "trust" them to be reliable (they could get pregnant and leave to be full time mothers). men who do choose to stay home are ridiculed and have their masculinity called into question, which i find completely appalling. i think it will be a long time before we get to a point of true equality.

as for me, if they asked me to put on a burqa, i'd probably protest by going nude instead ;)

catch you later.

Today i’m at this www for the first time so I’m popping here and there like a young dog.
Almost at the same time I got to know when is your birthday and saw a drawing “What I used to see”. Must be difficult to celebrate it in nyc. I like the drawings - crazy though. For me a bit too many aliens:). But I also feel very tired sometimes. Best regards from Poland. Iwona

sounds sad everywhere in the world; I’ve experienced 24h/7 work at the same exposed position with less money, worse class of company car, and when he was sent to the VIP trip to Venezuela I was sent to workshop in neighborhood Berlin where I had to prepare a presentation…

oooh...fiesty today, aren't we? lol 'tis a good thing to see..not a complaint.

so, this statement of mccain's is 'implying' that i am ignorant, doesn't it? yes..for the record, one can officially record my feeling on this as pissed off. i am a non-violent person by nature, and that being said.... i wouldn't give mccain air if he was in a jug regarding this dysentery of the mouth statement he's made. he just really doesn't know where his own stop button is nor how to use it. i think mccain is viewing the world via one of those viewfinder toys, where he's got slides of the 1930's repeating.

i personally call for mccain to wear a burqa and be shipped off to a 3rd world country with the same rights as the women have in that location. and someone...please help mccain find his personal stop button. he obviously can't find it with both of his hands.
