Sunday Links Round-up

Greetings readers! Welcome to yet another links round-up at Shoutout! If you are observing a religious holiday, we wish you the best of celebrations! If not, we wish you a lovely spring weekend! This Sunday:

Aliasmitch would like to remind you that: “GayMU, JMU’s week long celebration of LGBTQIQA students kicks off today! Madison Equality has provided us with countless events this week. Check out the facebook event page here and come show your support!”

Eszenyme enjoyed this : “Great article on, of all people, Snooki. It discusses the negative impact of comments like “Snooki should miscarry” or “I feel sorry for that baby”, not only for Snooki, but for motherhood as well.”

Femonfire found: “This post is a reminder that, even though it seems tempting to discredit women’s heath critics who use the “slut argument,” we should not lose sight of the fact that the amount of sexual activity a woman has should not bar her from being equally eligible for birth control and other such rights.”

Internationalcupcakebandit is, to say the least, astonished: “Wow. Okay, so when did having human rights open you up to terrorism? A man has bombed a planned parenthood in Wisconsin because he claims that they are killing babies.. “he joined the growing list of extreme anti-choice domestic terrorists who bomb, shoot, and act with intent to kill, sometimes succesffully, in the name of their “pro-life” cause.” Thankfully, no one was killed in this attempt. I don’t know about you guys, but this is really scary! “

Kaycorbs444 found: “this article following the prospective candidates and their action concerning women’s issues. It explores each party’s “contribution” to the gender divide. While allowing one to side with their politician of choice, this article forces readers to critically analyze the issue on a personal basis.”

Parklena finds herself anxiously: “waiting and full of hope for a positive result on Obama’s mandate about the Affordable Care Act that would keep gender from being an issue regarding health care. Women would have better benefits, no longer being denied care on ridiculous conditions like domestic violence.
