MODERN LOVE
By AYELET WALDMAN
Published: March 27, 2005
HAVE been in many mothers' groups - Mommy and Me, Gymboree, Second-Time Moms - and each time, within three minutes, the conversation invariably comes around to the topic of how often mommy feels compelled to put out. Everyone wants to be reassured that no one else is having sex either. These are women who, for the most part, are comfortable with their bodies, consider themselves sexual beings. These are women who love their husbands or partners. Still, almost none of them are having any sex.

Our Inner Lives: Spirit, Faith, Action
http://feminist.com/ourinnerlives/
Our Inner Lives seeks to be a space for the unified expression of women’s inner and outer lives. Some of us are happy to shout our feminist principles of social and cultural empowerment from the rooftops, but we hush up when it comes to discussions around the role faith plays in our lives behind closed doors. Others of us wear our faith or our religious practice on our sleeves (for some - like clergy - literally!), but don’t discuss our deep internal commitment to women’s full equality in all sectors of life and society.

Outraged Moms, Trashy Daughters

Outraged moms, trashy daughters
How did those steeped in the women’s lib movement produce girls who think being a sex object is powerful?
