			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Don&#8217;t ask questions. just accept it. and <a href="http://stores.ebay.com/district-soho/Mens-Lingerie-/_i.html?_fsub=1858660015">buy at least one pair</a> like I am right now. This was emailed to me with no context or explanation so I had to investigate further and while i&#8217;m still low on info &amp; origin &#8211; not to mention intention/purpose (I guess this is part of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwear_fetishism">underwear fetishism</a>?) it appears that <a href="http://www.dangerousminds.net/comments/is_this_a_thing_mens_pantie_stocking">DangerousMinds.net</a> is the earliest one to have spotted this and thus deserves credit.</p>
<p>Now I just need to decide what ratio of flesh and black will comprise my order&#8230; hmmm</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The UK is starting to spread awareness about the reported epidemic of <a href="http://www.pinknews.co.uk/2012/02/20/tube-ads-tell-commuters-real-men-get-raped/" target="_hplink">8,500 sexual crimes against men that may have taken place</a> in London alone last year. The British government estimates that only 11 percent of men who were attacked reported the crime due to embarrassment and shame so they&#8217;re putting these ads in London subways (they call them &#8220;tubes&#8221; over there):</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i.imgur.com/YN9Q3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>I&#8217;m not sure if there&#8217;s a language difference but here in the states, the phrase &#8220;Real Men [Action]&#8221; is a challenge to manhood and lack thereof. Grammatically it just states a fact: that this action happens. but colloquially, it sounds like &#8220;you&#8217;re not a real man unless you get fkkn RAPED. pussy.&#8221;</p>
<p>I love the symbolism, too. A ground shot of an ominous stormy sky with a rugby ball &#8211; the symbol of British manliness &#8211; being punctured by a nail. Real men get raped just like this rugby ball, gentleman. &#8220;and talking about it takes real strength&#8221;.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s being posted on 140 escalator panels in central London Tube stations (again: subways) by a group called <a href="http://www.survivorsuk.org/">Survivors UK</a>, cuz the world decided that &#8220;rape victim&#8221; is no longer an okay phrase. Victims of rape are &#8220;survivors&#8221; now.</p>
<p>As for the stats in America: The National Center For Victims Of Crime claims that about three percent of men in the U.S. (that&#8217;s about three million dudes) have been raped at some point in their lives.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ellen DeGeneres showed some public gratitude to Bill O’Reilly on her show today, thanking him for standing up for her against the group Million Moms, which was protesting the fact that JCPenney recently hired Ellen as a spokesperson.</p>
<p>“This JCPenney thing is a witch hunt, and it shouldn’t happen,” said O’Reilly. and he&#8217;s right, of course. The Million Moms&#8217; only objection was the fact that Ellen is gay. that&#8217;s insane and O&#8217;Reilly called it out as the McCarthism tactic that it is. Don&#8217;t hire gay people? Seriously? and ELLEN of all people? It&#8217;s not Perez Hilton or some sodomy activist that planned to usher in a new advertising campaign with JC Penny featuring dicks and buttholes and flaming baby jesus statues. wtf? </p>

<p>Later on the show, actress Julie Bowen who plays Claire on Modern Family echoed Ellens comments, offered her own support and own appreciation of O’Reilly&#8217;s words, saying “I never thought that I would want to make out with Bill O’Reilly. It turns out today is the day.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Before getting into the details of this story, i&#8217;ve got to announce to all those struggling: It gets better when you MAKE it get better. if youre in a toxic environment &#8211; GET OUT. if you absolutely <em>cant</em>, then use perspective and see the bigger picture and prepare for when you CAN.</p>
<p>If soldiers in Nazi prison camps, murderers in Alcatraz and Andy Dufresne in The Shawshank Redemption can spend years behind bars of iron in environments of hate, abuse and despair and keep it together enough to plot their eventual escape one day then YOU can too while waiting things out behind your bars of suburbia and judgementalism.</p>
<p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/btIST.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>One month after posting a video testifying how much better life gets for gay people as they grow up, 19-year-old Eric James Borges &#8211; known as EricJames among his friends &#8211; <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2086123/Eric-James-Borges-Gay-teen-film-maker-commits-suicide.html#ixzz1jM8pun8G">took his own life for unknown reasons</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;It gets better&#8221; is a campaign designed to reassure gay youths who are struggling with acceptance that it won&#8217;t always be that way and to inspire them to soldier on.</p>
<p>Poignantly, given the circumstances of his death, Borges ends his video with a message of hope and encouragement, saying: &#8216;You have an entire life fit to burst with opportunities ahead of you. Don&#8217;t ever give up, and don&#8217;t ever for one second think that you&#8217;re not a valuable and beautiful contribution to this world.&#8217;</p>
<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/InWhEIaCFkg?rel=0" frameborder="0" width="640" height="480"></iframe><br />
The caption for the video:</p>
<p>&#8220;It Gets Better Campaign&#8221; by EricJames Borges from Visalia, CA. My story is always hard to tell, even in a simplistic condensed form, but, &#8220;Many LGBT youth can&#8217;t picture what their lives might be like as openly gay adults. They can&#8217;t imagine a future for themselves. So let&#8217;s show them what our lives are like, let&#8217;s show them what the future may hold in store for them.&#8221; -ItGetsBetter.org</p>
<p>AGAIN: If you&#8217;re in an environment that is killing you &#8211; get OUT! If you have no possible way to get out or even if you&#8217;re just too broken to do what it takes to get out immediately then at MINIMUM stay internally strong and weather the storm by plotting your escape.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Well, that&#8217;s exactly what we&#8217;re going to do. We&#8217;re going to devote our energies to sports and gardening, all the cultural pursuits as far as they&#8217;re concerned. In fact, we&#8217;re going to put the goons to sleep. Meanwhile, we dig.&#8221; &#8211; the Great Escape (movie)</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Another video he made:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Previously I gave pause to a claim by former Senator Rick Santorum that the criticism that he was one of the most corrupt members of congress the year before losing his re-election in the senate could have been trumped up. He said it was a smear job by a left wing group that just does this kind of thing to get rid of republicans they dont like. Sounds plausible. But the organization, <a href="http://www.citizensforethics.org/blog/entry/just-the-facts-rick-santorum">CREW</a>, that made the claim and Santorum said was making phony charges, appears to have more of a basis for their charge than political ideology:</p>
<blockquote><p>During the Republican presidential debate Saturday night, Rep. Ron Paul cited CREW’s research as he focused the spotlight on former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum, whose ethical lapses landed him in our 2006 <a href="http://www.crewsmostcorrupt.org/mostcorrupt/entry/most-corrupt-2006"><em>Most Corrupt Members of Congress</em> report</a>. We also filed an <a href="http://www.citizensforethics.org/legal-filings/entry/crew-files-ethics-complaint-against-sen.-santorum">ethics complaint</a> against the senator.</p>
<p>Instead of addressing the charges, Mr. Santorum responded with the tried and un-true GOP talking point that CREW only targets Republicans. Fortunately, many fact-checking reporters caught onto Mr. Santorum’s trick.</p>
<ul>
<li><em>The New York Times </em><a href="http://elections.nytimes.com/2012/debates/2012-01-07-republican-debate#sha=e9484588b">pointed out</a> that our 2011 Most Corrupt list is bipartisan, with four liberal House Democrats on the list of 14 lawmakers. Three more Democrats merited dishonorable mentions.</li>
<li><em>The Washington Post </em><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/post/fact-checking-the-abc-news-and-meet-the-press-debates/2012/01/08/gIQAs2MVjP_blog.html">noted</a> we’ve named plenty of Democrats as corrupt.</li>
<li><em>ABC News </em><a href="http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/01/fact-checking-the-new-hampshire-debate/">explained</a> that CREW “focuses its criticism on both parties.”</li>
</ul>
<p>Mr. Santorum should take a lesson from CREW and just stick with the facts. To us it doesn’t matter if politicians are Republicans or Democrats, only that they’ve broken the rules.</p>
<p>Now that he’s back in the game, maybe Mr. Santorum finally will be forced to explain his unethical conduct.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong><a title="CREW's Most Corrupt Members of Congress" href="http://www.crewsmostcorrupt.org/mostcorrupt/entry/most-corrupt-2006" target="_blank">Read CREW&#8217;s 2006 Most Corrupt Members of Congress Report</a></strong></p>
<p>Other than the ethics stuff, I only have 1 other problem with Santorum and that is the gay stuff. He&#8217;s an okay candidate running on blue collar middle class principals and blah blah blah that is just fine &#8211; except for his handling of the social conservative nonsense. To some extent, abortion, but more so the gay thing. If he were the nominee, the headlines and media coverage would be about nothing but buttsecks and his opinion about it. What happened was that Santorum was explaining why he doesn&#8217;t think the constitution protects any and all sexual activity and that was why he opposed a Supreme Court ruling that struck down sodomy laws. Santorum claimed that the ruling opens a legal loophole that says you can do whatever you want to whatever you want with your genitals since it would be protected under the equal protection clause. The argument is a constitutional and legal one and has merit and should be debated &#8211; however, Santorum allowed himself to be a target for the issue after gay activists took his words to mean that there was some equivocation going on between being gay and raping squirrels. Santorum could have shined in response, but he didn&#8217;t. He is essentially correct on the questions raised in the argument, but handled the attacks in response to it so poorly that he should be disqualified as a candidate for that reason alone. In one of the debates he was asked what he would do if his son told him he was gay and Santorum responded that he would love him just as much as he did the second before he told him and would try to be the best father to him that he could. -A good answer, but he should have been saying that for the past 6 years when talking about the subject to crush the &#8220;you disagree with me, therefore you hate me&#8221; arguments leveled against him. Since he didn&#8217;t, he built up too much negativity that he cant fight against by just starting to now.</p>
<p>Santorum called the classification of his words a &#8220;jihad&#8221; by gay activists but&#8230; thats lame. and it&#8217;s a defensive argument coming way too late.</p>
<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/N0_CAjhz6a0?rel=0" frameborder="0" width="640" height="480"></iframe></p>
<p>Gay activists also Google-bombed his name by linking to a website that proclaims that the word Santorum is henceforth slang for &#8220;The frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the by-product of anal sex.&#8221; Santorum himself participated in the innuendo making by making the following unintentional acronym on his website:</p>
<p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/oXTAk.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>As far as the <a href="http://hotair.com/archives/2012/01/22/seven-things-we-learned-in-south-carolina/">primary contests</a> go:</p>
<blockquote><p>Rick Santorum isn’t going anywhere. Despite a third place finish, he’s on his way to the Sunshine State. Newt is still speaking very kindly of Rick in public, knowing that he needs Santorum’s supporters if he does manage to turn it into a two person race with Romney, but he’s got to be annoyed.</p>
<p>For his part, Santorum is correct to note that he has now won exactly as many primary contests as Mitt and Newt. And as per number 4 above, he has no reason to leave. Newt may have all the momentum at the moment, but if he does trip and fall, number 2 above should tell us that there is an excellent chance that Newt’s backers will actually stampede to Rick, rather than “falling in line” behind Romney. If he can just put in another strong pair of performances at the Florida debates, he will remain well positioned to lurk in the background and wait for his opportunity.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://newsbusters.org/users/paul-wilson">Paul Wilson</a> for the conservative media watchdog group <a href="http://newsbusters.org/blogs/paul-wilson/2011/11/15/more-pro-gay-pop-aganda-actress-sings-i-wish-i-was-gay">Newsbusters</a> is pretty upset over someone wishing they were gay:</p>
<blockquote><p>Jessica Lowndes, an actress on the CW show &#8221;90210,&#8221; is trying to break into the music world &#8211; by releasing a song where she ridiculously poses as a straight woman wishing she were gay.</p>
<p>Lowndes released a <a href="http://www.onlylyrics.com/hits.php?grid=6&amp;id=1077183">single</a> with the catchy title &#8221;I Wish I Was Gay,&#8221; about a woman reacting to being cheated on by her boyfriend. Lowdnes repeats the words &#8221;I wish I was gay,&#8221; and expresses a desire to &#8221;escape those boys.&#8221; The song also bizarrely suggests that lesbians are more faithful than straight guys, a <a href="http://www.queerty.com/90210-actresssinger-debuts-i-wish-i-was-gay-because-lesbians-dont-cheat-20111114/">claim</a> even gay site Queerty mocked.</p>
<p>The music video features a provocatively dressed Lowndes teasing a man and flirting with her backup dancers before confronting him with his infidelity, shaving his legs and smearing his face with lipstick.</p>
<p>Lowndes&#8217; single is part of a larger trend of gay themes being used in contemporary music. The Huffington Post <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/11/11/jessica-lowndes-i-wish-i-was-gay-_n_1089055.html">notes</a> that &#8220;gay themes are quickly becoming a ubiquitous element of contemporary pop music.&#8221;</p>
<p>Female musicians in particular are promoting homosexuality and bisexual behavior. Pop star Lady Gaga is notorious for her <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/06/10/lady-gaga-gay-rights-rome-rally-born-this-way_n_875448.html">advocacy of homosexuality</a>, and included homosexual themes in songs such as <a href="http://www.directlyrics.com/lady-gaga-born-this-way-lyrics.html">&#8221;Born This Way.&#8221;</a> Singer Katy Perry <a href="http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/k/katy_perry/i_kissed_a_girl.html">explored</a> bisexual themes with her 2008 song &#8221;I Kissed a Girl.&#8221; X Factor competitor Simone Battle recently <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/10/26/simone-battle-he-likes-boys-music-video_n_1032803.html">released</a> a song and music video titled &#8220;He Likes Boys,&#8221; which expressed a girl&#8217;s unrequited desire for gay guys.</p>
<p>While the trend of increasing homosexuality in pop songs is certainly worrisome, Lowndes&#8217; latest propaganda effort would probably draw more of a following if her singing were competent. After listening to Lowndes&#8217; lesbian fantasy, most listeners would probably echo the sentiments of <a href="http://www.andpop.com/2011/11/14/jessica-lowndes-new-music-video-i-wish-i-was-gay/">one reviewer</a>, who declared: &#8221;I wish I was deaf.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
