There are societies that do not pretend to be ‘civilized’—military dictatorships and totalitarian states—and execute their victims without ceremony. Then there are nations like the United States, whose claim to be civilized rests on the fact that its punishments are legitimized by a complex set of judicial procedures. This is called ‘due process,’ despite the fact that each step in this process is tainted by racial prejudice, class bias or political discrimination.

Bullshit. Women should be able to wear whatever the hell they want to wear and STILL be appreciated for their inner beauty!

Wrong! I don’t wear the clothes or make up I do to attract men. I do it because I like it. I am sure that is the case for many other women in the world ~ Maude

I hope my girls realize this.
