This blog used to be about politics. Not so much anymore as I have worked through my fascination with that subject. It now seems appropriate that with a new president and the end of the Bush nightmare that I move on to new subjects that are more in line with my current interests. I may still occasionally express an opinion about political matters but for the most part I will be commenting on music, photography and personal observations. Thank you for reading.

no kidding
 
aldahlia.net:
"Flash-forward to 2005, and I wonder that there's a place for mothers at all. It's another of those 'damned if you do, damned if you don't' situations. If you have kids you can't devote as much time to work, and you upset the 'childfree' folks that feel they shouldn't have to make up for your 'hobby.' If you don't have kids you're selfish and you'll have biological clock hives someday. If you wait too long you may have fertility issues, and if you don't wait long enough, you'll never have a career. If you have an only child you're kid will be self-centered and lonely, if you have more than 2 you're taking up more than you're allotted spot in terms of population growth. If you work outside the home, you're neglectful and selfish, if you stay at home you're smothering and a leech. If you're an educated mom that takes time off, then you're 'wasting your potential,' and if you're an uneducated mom you're 'putting your kids at risk.'"


Well said. I try not to talk too much about issues that primarily affect other people in situations where I have little or no experience. I'd feel stupid preaching to a women about reproductive issues, or black people about racism. Those voices need the space more than my stupidty does. Women face immensely difficult choices, being the only gender that can actually produce babies (so far).

So yeah, lay off, learn a little bit about unconditional love.
