Our government wants to define some forms of birth control as abortion

Delightfully Cranky blog post by Lisa Jervis, July 15, 2008 - 1:22pm; tagged horror, reproductive justice.

Someone on my favorite feminist- and media-related listserv just pointed me to this article, by the ever-knowledgable Cristina Page, about a new Health and Human Services Department proposal that would define the pill, the patch, the shot, the IUD, the ring, and Plan B as abortion rather than contraception.

A couple of things you ought to know about

Dogged Pessimism blog post by Andi Zeisler, July 11, 2008 - 4:41pm; tagged fat activism, people you should know, reproductive justice.

Before I leave the B-Word office to spend the weekend working in the air-conditioned, shades-drawn splendor of my own home, I wanted to hip you folks to two very cool projects that are looking for your input and support.

Have you heard of Fat Girl Speaks? That'd be Stacy. Visited the TechnoDyke.com community? Stacy, again. Indulged in the sweet-smelling lippy goodness of Pussy Pucker Pots? All Stacy.

More WAMmy goodness

Raising Hell blog post by Rachel Fudge, April 2, 2008 - 8:35pm; tagged aimee thorne-thomson, amanda marcotte, christina page, emily douglas, reproductive justice, WAM.

Lisa already gave a good rundown of what makes WAM so fab. This was only my second WAM, and I was blown away by how much it's grown since I last attended. As compelling as the lectures and panel sessions may be, for me WAM is all about the networking, the mutual-admiration-society atmosphere, and the re-energizing effect of being around so many sharp, funny, and impassioned women.
