Feminists For Choice » Are Conscience Clauses Ethical? →

They’re not, as far as I’m concerned.  Plus they’re not practical.  Think what would happen if, say, I worked at McDonald’s, and everytime someone asked for the french fries (…they have beef in them), I said they couldn’t have them because eating non-vegan french fries was against my morals.  Now imagine that if the customer couldn’t get these french fries, she/he would have to get poison french fries (also made with beef) from the trash can.  And all of this I can say without even pointing out that abortions aren’t immoral.

Feminists For Choice » Morehouse College Bans “Women’s” Clothing →

Setting aside the obvious homophobia this entails, just think if it were reversed.  If women were banned from wearing “men’s clothing”; i.e. pants, etc.  Not cool, right?  Same with this.

I’m not much good at small talk either.  I didn’t think about the fact that this was mostly a “problem” because I’m a girl.
