http://burnthewitches.blogspot.com/2007/05/its-as-bad-as-lj.html
Through the lens of a queer feminist fatale. Wednesday, 30 May 2007. It's as bad as LJ. Blogger lied about the new draft autosave. I just lost what turned into a 1500 word post. I'm sulking too much now to even attempt a re-write, but just go and look at this ridiculous article. In the Daily Male. Today I'm sure the rant that proceeded was pretty predictable. Wednesday, May 30, 2007. Ranty thoughts: why do we have to classify motherhood and the ways in which it's done? Most mothers, I imagine, have a big...

burn the witches: Celebration!
http://burnthewitches.blogspot.com/2007/07/celebration.html
Through the lens of a queer feminist fatale. Thursday, 19 July 2007. So fricking busy at the moment I'm barely getting the chance to read the blogs, and I've got the hug slut. Coming to stay with me today for a few days of fun and debauchery. And work, of course. Life in London is good. I have insomnia, however. Not used to not having another human breathing and dreaming beside me, perhaps. Cure for the shakes, anyone? 50 Years of the Women's Page. Thursday, July 19, 2007. 19 July 2007 at 18:50. CC&K cof...

Fighting Censorship in the UK since 1989. Tuesday, October 24, 2006. Graham Coutts' murder conviction overturned. The so-called "violent porn internet killer" who was convicted of murder has had his conviction quashed. According to the Register. In the original trial, jurors heard how he had viewed extreme violent internet pornography, particularly strangulation fetish sites. Coutts' defence argued that Ms Longhurst's death was an accident during consensual sex. Posted by Avedon @ 8:53 AM. Speakers inclu...

burn the witches: A feminised society now produces campus killers
http://burnthewitches.blogspot.com/2007/05/feminised-society-now-produces-campus.html
Through the lens of a queer feminist fatale. Monday, 7 May 2007. A feminised society now produces campus killers. I've been catching up on some reading and stumbled across this joyous article:. I've been following the press on Virginia Tech with some interest, watching to see where commentators will point the finger of blame. Why is having sex without commitment 'having sex like men'? Women have, as far as I'm aware, been doing this for quite some time, even when gender expectations were more polarised&#...

Through the lens of a queer feminist fatale. Thursday, 2 August 2007. Transsexuality is aversion therapy for homosexuals. According to the never charming Ms Bindel. I shouldn't have looked (thene told me not to), but I had to. I caught the end of the debate on Radio 4 last night and was already infuriated. Thursday, August 02, 2007. 3 August 2007 at 05:33.

burn the witches: Vile Bodies
http://burnthewitches.blogspot.com/2007/12/vile-bodies.html
Through the lens of a queer feminist fatale. Monday, 3 December 2007. So I've been following all the threads about cosmetic surgery. From here. And back to Renegade. I have to ask . why is there this 'feminist' move towards hatred of female bodies? Since when did being flat-chested become some kind of feminist badge of honour? And why are some choices regarding bodies more equal than others? So what's the message from Angela and Ginmar? Way to go, feminism. Monday, December 03, 2007. Angela" would've bee...

burn the witches: The case that led to a ridiculous law
http://burnthewitches.blogspot.com/2007/07/case-that-led-to-ridiculous-law.html
Through the lens of a queer feminist fatale. Friday, 6 July 2007. The case that led to a ridiculous law. I moved from north to south and am reasonably settled now. And here we go:. There have been various articles relating to Graham Coutt's new sentence, which will imprison him for life for the murder of Jane Longhurst. He has continually protested and claimed it was manslaughter. Who knows? And you can read about the case here. I'm not trying to belittle her loss or defend Graham Coutt's actions, but he...

burn the witches: Women and Pornography seminar
http://burnthewitches.blogspot.com/2007/06/women-and-pornography-seminar.html
Through the lens of a queer feminist fatale. Monday, 18 June 2007. Women and Pornography seminar. So last week I choked up some cash, took a day off and went to an open seminar on Women and Pornography. Over at Sunderland University. Apart from the excitement of catching a glimpse of a couple of never-seen-before northern cities (or is Sunderland a town? I was supposed to meet DemRed of Backlash. The other thing that confused me was realising it was going to be a women-only space. I didn't really get...

burn the witches: Vampire
http://burnthewitches.blogspot.com/2007/04/vampire.html
Through the lens of a queer feminist fatale. Wednesday, 25 April 2007. Recycled from an old blog of mine, but it amused me. I was reading an old scientific journal (1890s? The other day that amused and horrified me in equal measures. On the subject of (specifically! Not women in general! Wives, William J. Robinson, a doctor of Genito-Urinary diseases declared that women who are satisfied with occasional relations - not more than once in two weeks or ten days. Are considered normal, but that:.

burn the witches: mini-round up
http://burnthewitches.blogspot.com/2007/06/mini-round-up.html
Through the lens of a queer feminist fatale. Sunday, 3 June 2007. I am suddenly broke, and also slightly diseased. In other news, this game. Is driving me nuts! London-based folks might be interested in hearing Alice Vachss speak. On the shamefully low rape conviction rate in the UK. Caitlin Moran on the latest abortion law crisis. And a slightly better, if rather worrying article on working mothers in The Guardian today. Sunday, June 03, 2007. Why not force men to be responsible? 5 June 2007 at 20:03.
