Abortions Back to the Past Heartbeats and Heartache
Nearly a decade to the day from when Roe v Wade was passed, I had an abortion. If I lived in Dallas today, it never would have happened. It was a blustery day in late January 1983 and the N.Y.C.

The Toxic Workplace and the Entitled Male. Getting Personal with the Personnel is Not OK
There was a time when sexism and sexual harassment in the workplace were laughed off, dismissed as good-natured fun. “Boys will be boys,” said with a shrug of the shoulders. “It’s just who they are,” whispered in ladies’ rooms with

AOC – We Will Not Move On – Keep Speaking Up Survivors. It Matters.
Like AOC, I’ve been told to “Move On. To forget.” “Move on, forget about it.” I was told when I was 19 and viciously sexually assaulted on a warm summer night in the balsam-scented woods of suburban N.J. “Put it

Vintage Springmaid Textiles Ads – A Real Eyeful

Don’t Judge Me Because I Can’t Play the Piano
I never had piano lessons. Can’t tickle the ivories at all. Which now might very well disqualify me from sitting on the Supreme Court, my lack of law degree notwithstanding. That was my take away from the confirmation hearings for

Abortion Before Roe v Wade Risky Business
