Awesome linkage.

  • Amanda Marcotte talks about decreasing the risks of pregnancy, and just how full of shit that is.  bean comments in a way that sums this up well: "With regard to my stance, I agree that women should have as much information as is out there so they can make informed choices during their pregnancies. What I disagree with is the tone in which the information is usually presented: panic! You women must be perfect during pregnancy or ELSE!"
  • Selling Anxiety: How the News Media Scare Women, by Caryl Rivers.  "Selling Anxiety does a great service to public debate by debunking the erroneous data upon which such shoddy journalism is based, and providing accurate information to counter sexist narratives. To wit: Workplace discrimination (not "women's choices") causes pay disparities, science doesn't prove men are biologically smarter, and research shows mothers with rewarding jobs have the hottest sex! The news just got a little less gloomy."
  • How to support someone with an eating disorder?
