The Smegmaster thinks we’re a bunch of idiots. However, Just Between Strangers thinks Nick is cool (and I’m sure we all agree!). And Moosk at Elegy to Lost Youth takes a look at Sydney and decides it’s time to get knocked up.

Oh dear, did I damage the pro-choice cause by comparing abortion to removing body hair? There was me thinking I was commenting on the variety of ways in which people’s feelings about their bodies can differ. Stupid me, I must choose my analogies with more care in future.

Apologies for my shall we say “heated” rhetoric. I think the choice of words just caught me at a bad time and I went a little off the deep end for it.
Cheers,

rape is a subset of sex while wanted pregnany & unwanted pregnancy are contradictory? What, this guy think rape is just sex in which one partner doesn’t have an orgasm?

I agree that Nick’s postings have been very welcome. So how come she isn’t mentioned in the “About the Bloggers” sidebar?
Peace!

If National Lampoon had its own take-off on the Transformers, I could definitely imagine the team leader being called “Smegmaster.”
Thanks for the backhanded compliment, Smeggie. If two negatives multiplied make a positive, being branded an idiot by someone with such an idiotic brand name must mean we’re pretty smart over here.

Ah, I feel special. I was noticed in the blogsphere by someone I’ve never heard of before and probably never notice again.

It’s a special feeling, isn’t it Antigone? I was once quoted at a right-winged blog for a comment I made in TalkLeft, which was used as an example of everything that was wrong with the pro-choice side.
This comment was written by Kristjan Wager.Given the content of the site in general, I’m pretty happy to be on the other side of the debate from that particular crowd.

I’m not a proper blogger here yet, especially since I’m still maintaining my own blog for personal stuff at The Iron-On Line. Feel free to look there if you want to know more about me.
