girls issue
The plastic surgery issue is really looming because girls in the U.S. are getting it in their teens.
clutter creatively design games major news though ugly video web
Video games and YouTube.com are creatively booming, even though Web design, as demonstrated by the ugly clutter of most major news sites, is in the pits.
art creativity cant
Rule of art: Cant kills creativity!
careers issues life-and-death
The true mission of feminism today is not to carp about the woes of affluent Western career women but to turn the spotlight on life-and-death issues affecting women in the Third World, particularly in rural areas where they have little protection against exploitation and injustice.
children pain men
Men have sacrificed and crippled themselves physically and emotionally to feed, house, and protect women and children. None of their pain or achievement is registered in feminist rhetoric, which portrays men as oppressive and callous exploiters.
party class ordinary

dog sex vacation
Leaving sex to the feminists is like letting your dog vacation at the taxidermist.
feminism birth-control-pills patriarchy
Patriarchy, routinely blamed for everything, produced the birth control pill, which did more to free contemporary women than feminism itself.

sorry years skills
I feel genuinely sorry for those who are so blinded by narrow partisanship that they cannot appreciate Limbaugh's energy, intelligence and satiric skill. They live in a box with bags over their heads. Though he and I hardly agree on politics (I voted for Ralph Nader last year and may go Green again in 2004), I respect Limbaugh as a political analyst and deft rhetorician who is a master of the microphone and who knows how to engage and challenge a vast audience.
compassion feminism doe
Minerva save us from the cloying syrup of coercive compassion! What feminism does not need, it seems to me, is an endless recycling of Doris Day Fifties clichés about noble womanhood.
space advice mind
My advice to the reader approaching a poem is to make the mind still and blank. Let the poem speak. This charged quiet mimics the blank space ringing the printed poem, the nothing out of which something takes shape.
enemy nasty said
The only thing that will be remembered about my enemies after they're dead is the nasty things I've said about them.
