Notes Indiana State Rep. warns fellow Republicans that the Girl Scouts are "making their daughters more receptive to the pro-abortion agenda."Apparently Girl Scouts also:
- have a “close strategic affiliation with Planned Parenthood.”
- “promote homosexual lifestyles.”
- allow “boys who decide to claim a “transgender” or cross-dressing life-style…to become a member of a Girl Scout troop, performing crafts with the girls and participate in overnight and camping activities – just like any real girl.”
- “are feminists, lesbians, or Communists.”
I am so proud to be a lifelong Girl Scout!

Notes"It is only three years since a judge in St Petersburg, Russia, threw out a case on the ground that: “If we had no sexual harassment we would have no children."American business is far from perfect, but it is generally agreed to be leading the way in tackling sexual harassment in the workplace. Most other countries have a lot of catching up to do. (via theeconomist)
From the comments on this article:
“What about ‘reverse sexual harassment’ where women use their sexuality for the purpose of advancement? It would be nice to hear that side of the story…..”
“In the past, a male staff might easily pat on the shoulders of a female colleague who seemed to be down and out. He felt the same great. Not any more can you do that. If you dare, she might drag you deeper down into hell and out of your job. Remember, just dont lay your hands on her if you are not invited. Women are more deadly. Hush hush.”
And here’s the best one!:
“Sexual harassment is harmless nonsense. The real horrible part is the punishment the men get for that bullshit - which is more horrible than rape - being outlasted by society, hated, boycotted, persecuted and treated as if being the devil himself.
And why those women who lie are not punished?”Sounds like the Economist’s readers have a lot of catching up to do as well.

"I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable."
I realize that many Tea Partiers are dumb. But these people from my hometown who think that it’s a good idea to make kids MORE selfish really take the cake.

Someone hacked Ravelry and stole all the passwords.
Some hacker wants to see what some crazy cat ladies like myself have been knitting really, really badly.

Sometimes my job makes me have little faith in schools’ abilities to educate children.
Like when a high school has their students taking “calculas.” It says so on their schedules.
