Oh, dear freshman—who, because you are so young, we will not use your name so as not to further destroy your now-horrific Google record—we were so close to taking back the night and now look at the night, now no one has it. Favorite quote of the week — Choire talking about that idiotic Princeton op-ed. (via phamos)

When Battered Women are Arrested – A Growing Problem

In recent years, Battered Women’s Support Services has become increasingly alarmed by the growing number of women accessing our services who have been arrested for allegedly perpetrating domestic violence against their partners. In our experience these arrests are occurring despite the fact that in all cases women were in relationships where they were being abused.

We have written two resources in response to this growing problem available on March 15, 2010.

WHEN BATTERED WOMEN ARE ARRESTED – A resource for front-line workers

IF YOU HAVE BEEN ABUSED AND ARRESTED – A resource for women who have been abused by their partner and arrested by the police (available in English, Farsi, Punjabi and Spanish)

Engaging Immigrant Women in the Legal System Project funded by the Law Foundation

This happened to my sister. It is yet another avenue for abusers to isolate and punish their victims. And to make sure that they are not believed in the wider community - their innocence tarnished.

When we talk about toy departments as womanists/feminists, we always take note of the gender differences. Boys aisles are always blue and girls aisles are always pink. In the girls aisle, you will find baby dolls and toys that generally reinforce the idea that girls are to nurture or be concerned about their appearance. Very seldom will you see commentary about the races on the boxes because Whiteness subsumes all other races, thereby creating POC as invisible. Renee (via amandaw)

CBO estimates that in the fourth quarter of calendar year 2009, ARRA added between 1.0 million and 2.1 million to the number of workers employed in the United States, and it increased the number of full-time-equivalent jobs by between 1.4 million and 3.0 million. Think Progress (via abbyjean)

The problem with the conversation surrounding the Family Guy episode is that it presupposes that people fall into one of two categories: those who think the joke was funny because they weren’t offended by it, and those who think the joke wasn’t funny because they were. I didn’t find the joke funny, not because it was insensitive to people with Down syndrome or to Sarah Palin, but because it just wasn’t funny. Like, as a joke.

Alston, in re MacFarlane v. Palin (via newsweek)

This. It’s not a funny joke - the joke depends on the idea that all of Sarah Palin’s kids have Down’s Syndrome, which just isn’t funny.
