I was referred to this post by my girlfriend, and I must say one thing:
You, miss, win the internet.
I completely side with you on the whole "christianity needs to get its goddamn hands off my rights" thing, and in fact everything you said above; far too long we've been buffaloed by their xenophobic, self-righteous, illogical bullshit. There is no reason why they've stayed in power as long as they have, none. That post is easily one of the most cogent statements on the rights (or lack thereof as the case is around here) of women in our country I've read in a long time. More people need to get their heads out of their asses and realize just how ridiculous our treatment of women has become.
Major props. I wish there were more people like you and my girl who used their goddamn heads and stood up for what's right and just, and not what's accepted.
Agreed!
