I organized this hate crimes event because I’m a mom
Cross-posted from The Sin City Siren: Are you ready for the NOH8 in Las Vegas hate crimes event? I can’t believe it’s almost here! You can still RSVP here. And all this planning has me thinking about the first time I organized an event for Erin Davies and her “fag bug.” I spent most of […]
Surviving “going viral,” or, how I launched a national conversation about abortion
April 7, 2013
Is this what it feels like when you decide to “Say Yes” in life? I am exhausted. I am touched. I am amazed. I am horrified. I am in awe. Last week I did the same thing I do every week (several times a week): I wrote a blog post. Same as I ever do. […]
A look at Roe at 40
January 18, 2013
In anticipation of the 40th anniversary of Roe v Wade on Jan. 22, I have written a series of posts over on The Sin City Siren. What is the state of Roe today? What is our legacy? These questions and more are examined in the links below. 40 Years of Roe: Choice in a Post-choice […]
How feticide laws turn women into gestational slaves
January 8, 2013
Anti-choice advocates have a friend in feticide laws. Akin to personhood laws, as far as I can tell, there is no upside to feticide laws.

Girl, you’ll be a woman soon
May 11, 2012
HuffPost Women has a new campaign called “The Moment I Knew I Was a Woman, Not a Girl” in which users submit videos chronicling their exile from Girlville. It’s an interesting question, especially considering how dangerous it feels to be Living While Female these days. And it strikes to the core of gender, really. Because […]

Out with the old, in with the new
January 10, 2012
Hey there, Tired Feminist fans. I’m glad you’ve hung in there and patiently waited for some new posts. I apologize for being a bit negligent. It seems my baby decided that the spoils of daycare should be at least one illness a week that pretty much brings the entire house to a grinding halt. Perhaps […]
