Pro-lifer smacks down Cher’s (now deleted) tweet sniping Romney and “Tea Baggers”

According to Cher’s tweet, we Tea Party folks are a bunch of women haters. Cher, I’ll remind you, on behalf of the Tea Party, when the Tea Party has to have ‘No-Rape Zones’ at their rallies, I’ll accept your charge of women-hating.

American Horror Story TV series criticized for demonizing abortion

When our reproductive rights face a daily barrage of attacks, it’s frightening that the series so blatantly perpetuates myths surrounding the fear, stigma and shame of abortion and pregnancy. ~ Megan Kearns criticizing the treatment of abortion by the […]

HBO show “Girls” goes for laughs with abortion

But in Girls, the abortion talk is the comic relief. The show’s second episode, “Vagina Panic,” is partially set in a Manhattan health clinic. Shoshanna, Marnie, and Hannah have shown up to support their fourth friend, flighty, pregnant Jessa (she’s the Samantha of the group). But Jessa’s too flaky — and too frightened — to […]
