https://www.timesnownews.com/world/us/us-news/why-new-hampshire-is-raising-legal-age-of-marriage-article-109864958 Raising the age of marriage without exception is a terrible idea. It diminishes the importance of marriage and lowers its value. Teenagers are not children and I believe that our society has gone way too far in infantilizing the young. Marriage is supposed to serve social and legal purposes. Teenagers are going to have … Continue reading Comment: Raising the Age of Marriage is a Terrible Idea

“Support Your Wife and Children”
If I support patriarchy, then it is only because I am no fool and know that the rights and well-being of women are better off in the hands of men than in the hands of women. Whenever only men made the laws, they made laws that protected women and imposed duties and responsibilities upon other … Continue reading “Support Your Wife and Children”
What Do “Conservatives” Want From Women, Anyway?
It gets really old and admittedly quite disgusting to see modern-day “conservatives” consistently bashing “empowered” women and “feminists” when I’ve witnessed them over and over practically spitting on housewives. They are just as guilty if not more so of training their daughters to focus on college and careers and of taking women’s traditional rights and … Continue reading What Do “Conservatives” Want From Women, Anyway?
No, “They” Did Not Give Birth
Would someone kindly explain the biology here behind statements such as “we gave birth” or “her and her husband gave birth?” How, precisely, does that work? A couple of decades ago people began saying stupid things like “We’re pregnant!” and now we’ve gone from that level of ridiculous to yet another one. I realize that … Continue reading No, “They” Did Not Give Birth
Opinion on “Childcare” as it Relates to Women in the Workforce
All we ever hear about in our current culture is “childcare, childcare, childcare.” This is only so because our society is so loath to advocate for women simply having children and then being the natural default caretakers of those children. Our society is loath to “stereotype” women as weaker or more nurturing than men, or … Continue reading Opinion on “Childcare” as it Relates to Women in the Workforce

Surrogacy Is Never Ethical Nor Justifiable
surrogacy-is-always-unethical-1Download Whether paid or “altruistic,” there can never be anything ethical about surrogacy. It doesn’t matter if a woman herself is not healthy enough or capable of physically bearing a child, that doesn’t give her, or any other man she might wish to have a child with, the right to exploit and use another woman’s … Continue reading Surrogacy Is Never Ethical Nor Justifiable

Some Comments on “Personhood”
personhood-revisionDownload Comments on “Personhood” Mankind has spent several millennia debating issues revolving around life and death. The ability to reason on such a deep, philosophical, and critical level is perhaps the single greatest distinguishing attribute of our species. Philosophically, perhaps even factually, it is true that the fetus is human, or is at least part … Continue reading Some Comments on “Personhood”
The Rule of Law
Did you vote for the president as a result of the political “issues” of the day? Did you vote for him because you are “pro-life” or pro-Second Amendment? But did you know that the president doesn’t actually control these issues? Nearly every president in history has campaigned on a promise of “hope” or “change”- but … Continue reading The Rule of Law
