There have been several posts lately on the topic of rape. Most of the articles aim at getting the issue of rape out into the open as a way of educating the public. I have read more and more about how boys need to realize what they are doing and be taught that rape is [...]

It’s that time of the year again. The jewelry and chocolate companies are pushing their wares harder than usual, and people are making plans for Valentine’s Day. Eden Café has been all about the romance of late, which is fine. But I’m going to write something a bit different. I’m going to talk about what [...]

Since when did it happen that only women want to be healthier, eat healthier, care about their body and aspire to look or feel better in general by eating more good food and less junk food? But first, let me go off tangent here and say that actually there’s quite a lot of “diet food” that [...]

I wish society would stop touting marriage as the ultimate commitment. I don’t find anything special or particularly noteworthy of any couple that marries. And I’m definitely not impressed by people who get married. They’re no different than an unmarried committed couple. I’m not going to afford them any extra respect. And yet that’s seems [...]

Yes, an endless battle- but not against the media, not against any one religion. To be honest, at some point, most people on either side just start fighting against themselves. I know that from the second some of you read that title, you may feel defensive or insulted- How can someone trivialize such an important issue [...]

I recently read an article that was relating rape culture to anti-choice agenda. I was outraged when I saw the vultures that stand outside of abortion clinics harassing the women who are merely exercising their rights over their bodies. I was so angry to see the low, cheap, deceptive tactics they were using to ‘level [...]

Today I’m going to talk to you about penis size. Yes, I know, it’s been done to death. But I read a post on a woman’s blog (I forget where) that had me all up in arms. This person wrote a scathing piece about how much she hated big penises. Yes, seriously. The comments from [...]

I mean, I don’t know what you thought you were doing all this time with that $100+ Pure Wand, shoving it up your vagina like there was something there to stimulate it with…clearly you are imagining things. Typical woman. /sarcasm. So, this was going to be a big ole rant of my usual style, cutting and snarky, [...]

I have no idea how to narrow this down, so I will just list my favorites and you can pick your own from the list: Carrie Prejean: Dumber than a Box of Hammers Come on Carrie… don’t you know how these things work? Did you really expect that you could stand on stage at a beauty pageant [...]

Lately there have been a few discussions that have led me back to this same concept again and again. Taking responsibility for your own actions seems to be a basic, fundamental life skill few are capable of or willing to exercise. What’s worse is that so often, we seem more than willing to excuse this [...]

Don’t worry, this isn’t a rant. OK, not entirely anyway. I know I touched on Christmas in my WotW: Atheist piece, but I wanted to share just when I started becoming apathetic toward the holiday. It happened when I was a kid, well before I started questioning religion and decided I am an Atheist. My [...]

Like most people in our area, my best friend (who I will call “Kim” here for privacy reasons) became unemployed earlier in the year. After months of trying to ignore a long-term illness while she fruitlessly searched for a new job, she finally broke down and accepted the free health care provided by the county [...]

Never in my entire life have I had a 9 to 5 job, or anything similar to that. I just don’t operate that way. First of all, I need at least two hours to go from awake to fully dressed and out the door. And until about ten years ago I couldn’t wake up before [...]

For as long as I can remember I have loved coffee. My first memory of it was when I was about three years old. My mother and grandmother were sitting there having a cup and I wanted some too. So my grandmother got out one of her cute little demitasse cups, she had [...]

I’ve been wanting to write something for this series but lack of sleep lately has made it hard to find passion for much, in favor or against. But thankfully Fox News has come to the rescue. I always have disliked them, but recently they’ve risen to new heights and with these achievements in journalistic mediocrity, I can [...]
