Put Off Mammograms? No WAY!

Written by barbarany_9 on
A couple days ago I was sitting at the doctor's office getting a series of bloodwork done when I saw this: On Monday, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommended that doctors delay mammography screening for breast cancer until the age of 50. The recommendation goes against the American Cancer Society’s long-held position that women receive their first mammogram by the age of 40 and follow up with yearly mammograms until the age of 74. WT#?? Are these people kidding? Yes, I admit I am over 50. Because of having PCOS since age 9 I have been getting regular mammograms since I was about ... Read Full Story

The Woman: Skewer Her... and LOOK WHAT HAPPENED!

Written by barbarany_9 on
If you read nothing else today, PLEASE READ DONNA DARKO This appears to be an updated post from August that begins by accounting the history of how the primaries and caucuses were used to skewer The Woman. The updates are a complete account of what women are thinking since the House betrayed them this week. The bottom line is blind trust of the third wave in Barack Obama endangers pretty much all their rights as human beings of the “Wrong” gender. This is a huge wakeup call for the Third Wave of lax feminists. We owe them this because they are about to have ... Read Full Story

Senate Passes Ledbetter Bill!

Written by barbarany_9 on
The bill passed by 61-36. We need to get a roll call to see which of our nation’s 36 senators voted against fair pay for women and to find out what their rationale was. They have a lot of explaining to do to their non-burqa wearing female constituents. Some of you ladies out there should expect to see a raise as your employers rush to head off any potential lawsuits. But there’s more to paycheck disparities than just discrimination: The Senate debate on Thursday reflected society’s debate. Civil and womens’ rights advocates hailed the new Ledbetter legislation, but others said it will leave companies ... Read Full Story

Women Vs Islam: When Will the West Assume its Moral Obligation?

Written by Cole2 on
I recently attended a Women’s Conference in Paris dedicated to the plight of women in Muslim communities throughout the world. The women's concerns addressed issues both in the home and in their respective communities. One of the highlights of the conference was the recent sentencing of a 19-year-old Saudi female victim of gang rape who initially was ordered to undergo 90 lashes for "being in the car of an unrelated male at the time of the rape," and then shockingly sentenced to 200 lashes and six months in jail for telling her story to the news media. Women of all ages participated, all of ... Read Full Story

"You're Just Bitter"

Written by barbarany_9 on
From this great site: The not-so-bitter truth “You’re just bitter.” This is a phrase commonly used to silence women . Another variation says, “You are so unforgiving.” The bitterness accusation is used to bully a woman and tell her how she “should” feel instead of asking her how she does feel. Someone who uses this label expects her to pretend there has been no harm, no foul. She is expected to pretend the one who hurt her is a great person, even if she knows he is a terrible person. If she does not pretend, it is because she is “bitter and unforgiving.” Abusers ... Read Full Story

Couples' Counseling & Marriage Counseling Does NOT Work in Abusive...
If you are struggling with a relationship, some people may advise you to get marriage counseling, or couples' counseling. While this can be good advice in some relationships, it is NOT good for couples where there is emotional, verbal, psychological or physical violence. In fact, in many cases, couples' counseling has increased the violence/abuse in the home. Couples' counseling does not work because: Couples' counseling places the...

Protecting Yourself After Abuse
by Jeannette StingleyWhen you finally get away from your abuser, it is possible to keep him/her from finding you or ruining your credit. One of the first things you should do if you haven’t already is relocate yourself and your children if you haven’t already. Move across town, across the state, even to another state if you have to. Have your phone number unlisted. There is a small fee for this service in some areas but it is worth it.Obtain a...

What About My Pets?
Another Reason Women Don't LeaveI recently received an email from someone who reminded me of another reason why women don't leave abusive situations. They are afraid for the lives of their pets. According to Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, a 1997 study of the largest battered women's shelters in 48 states revealed that workers at 85 percent of those shelters had heard reports from women about incidents of animal abuse. And...

Tools for the Restraining order
I think most of us have heard of the ankle bracelets that are being used for some couples with restraining orders are in place.  Elmo Tech has taken that one step further.  Normally, if someone is violating the restraining order they are in the victims presence or near enough to do them harm.  "Restraining orders are the most common way in Western administrations of handing domestic violence cases and remote offender monitoring has been...
