I haven't read either book, and if anyone has, I'd be interested to know how helpful they are. I am always dubious about things like this, after watching an Oprah show. As you may know, Oprah Winfrey is a survivor of child molestation and incest and has worked to make sure predators are caught and arrested.
The program featured mom's who had done all the right things in
... and many are making pornography of the abuse. And white heterosexual men, among other het men, would like it very much if we all would please stop talking about it ASAP. And, especially, not call on other het men to hold one another accountable to these crimes against humanity. Fathers holding each other accountable. Imagine THAT.
Imagine men untwisting their pants long enough to not be so

I want to personally and professionally thank Michael Flood (creator and moderator of xyonline.net, linked to on the right side of this blog in the important web pages section) for conducting this research project. The results don't surprise me at all, and I think it's always good for those who "need studies" to have those resources and results to confirm what so many of

I like the question that follows and believe this to be an important issue that is, in my experience, too rarely discussed, leaving those of us who are, whether by choice and privilege or not, without partners and without children of our own. I found some of the answers to be implicitly classist and racist, also misogynist, so I

What makes me sad and enraged while watching this is not only that her life is being wasted in
