Normally, when I tell people I'm a feminist, they look at me like I just confessed to murder. No, I don't hate men. Yes, I do shave my legs. No, I'm not a lesbian. Yes, I wear makeup.
It makes one wonder: Would the Michigan Republican leadership have banned a male conservative representative for using the term "vagina" in the debate? Somehow I doubt it.
Giving someone like Ted, Rush or Glenn a national megaphone to advocate bigotry, while making a massive profit out of it, has nothing to do with protecting the First Amendment, but with making lots of money. It is big business, pure and simple.

There is no question of rights here. Media Matters is fully within its rights to run ad campaigns against Limbaugh. They are exercising their right to free speech.
Fueled by a heady bout of denial as practiced by an egomaniac, and cheered on by a fan base of enablers, Rush Limbaugh's Sandra Fluke saga is still generating national headlines on its 22nd day. How has the story of an AM talker's offensive chatter been able to sustain itself for so long?
WASHINGTON -- Sandra Fluke said Tuesday that she'd been asked to run for office, and she didn't rule it out -- someday. "Numerous American women ha...
'Strength does not come from physical capacity, (but) from an indomitable will." And women have always had that, even when we still considered ourselves a minority.

President Obama spoke out and did his part. Now we must demand a national conversation about the war of words and its impact on women and girls. It's not the president's responsibility to police the airwaves -- that's our job.
If we say that slut is a bad word, we are implicitly saying it is bad for women to want to have sex. If we say that prostitute is a bad word, we are saying that taking money for sex is an insult. Neither is automatically true.
During a long career of hurling insults, Rush Limbaugh has apologized only a handful of times. Yet perhaps his true legacy will lie in his illumination of the many ways to say you're sorry when you're not.
When I hear liberal commentators calling for boycotting any business that advertises on the Limbaugh show, or calling on radio stations carrying the show to cancel it, I start to get nervous -- as a First Amendment liberal, that is.
Every child deserves to be wanted, safe and loved. I don't deny there are damaged women out there who use abortion as a means of birth control. A former friend had five abortions. Those pregnancies were her cry for help. But I can't help thinking those babies were better off not being in her care.
