What's he on about now?

In case the articles, essays and opinions throughtout this site just weren't enough for you, here's my online diary (a.k.a. 'blog'). It's as close as you'll come to the inside of my head, so don't say I didn't warn you

   CARE, WITH FLAIR

The Tennessee Guerilla Women are protesting attempts to roll back women's rights in that state and they're doing it with style! As the author explains:

I plan to wear a Red Burka Shirt when I go downtown to watch my elected representatives vote on whether or not women should be returned to the 19th century...Tennessee currently has 58 bills pending in the Legislature that deal specifically with abortion or reproductive healthcare. Forty-three of those 58 initiatives would take away the rights of Tennessee women. These measures are so cynical and cruel that many would even force a victim of rape or incest to bear the child of her attacker. While Tennessee legislators are trying to make it harder for women to access abortion services, they are doing next to nothing to help women prevent unintended pregnancies.

A T-shirt won't stop those bills but it's a fantastic start!
