There’s an excellent article in today’s Irish Times by Kathy Sheridan on the topic of the latest Ruhama report into prostitution in Ireland – I would recommend you all take a read, and then come back here and think about how much further pornography goes into our collective psyches, until all we have left are [...]

As International Women’s Day draws to a close – with no small number of defectors – we reach what one of my Twitter “friends” terms his “favourite day”: Steak and Blow Job Day. This day has, says the website, “been created so you ladies finally have a day to show your man how much you [...]

One of my favourite moments in Glee (which just so happens to be the best TV programme going right now) is when Rachel tells the chastity club that they’re living a lie, and that women actually want to have sex just as much as men do, thus shattering the illusions of men (and women, to [...]
