In the early days of the series, Luke could not make it through a school day without hitting someone; by the time he decamps for Portland, friendly Gay Dad in tow, he practically presses his palms together and murmurs “namaste” at every goodbye. Everything in the world happens to Luke. Nothing does not happen to him. He contains multitudes.” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Alcuni esempi: “L’aborto è violenza / l’aborto è omicidio”; “Aborto: già un miliardo di vittime”; “Aborto = abominio”; “194, già 5 milioni di morti”; “Eluana Englaro voleva e doveva vivere”; e così via. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Inizialmente, la sfilata sui Fori Imperiali si svolge in un clima abbastanza surreale. La maggior parte della strada, infatti, è occupata dai campi da pallavolo allestiti per la festa del Minivolley ed è intasata da turisti, famiglie e ragazzini. I manifestanti pro-life intonano slogan e sventolano foto raccapriccianti di feti abortiti al quinto mese; turisti e genitori guardano esterrefatti; i bambini rimangono imbambolati, senza capire bene cosa stia succedendo. Alla testa del corteo, oltre alla croce con i feti di plastica, svetta un cartellone che recita: “Molti ospedali sono campi di sterminio”. Raggiungo l’uomo che lo sta tenendo in mano per fargli qualche domanda, ma lui agita il rosario che stringe nella mano destra per scacciarmi via e non risponde.” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

But on a broader social level, we need a diversity of post-sex-scandal narratives. We need space for women who have been publicly humiliated, deeply hurt and fundamentally betrayed to be publicly angry without being called crazy. After all, being entirely livid is actually quite a sane response to a large-scale humiliation brought upon you by a person who is supposed to be your partner in life and love. Women shouldn’t have to play the part of the forgiving wife in order to make sure their husbands’ careers aren’t torpedoed; they certainly shouldn’t have to choke down righteous rage and smile for the cameras in order to make their own careers tenable.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2013/apr/12/anthony-weiner-wife-huma-abedin" target="_blank"&gt;Jill Filipovic&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;em&gt;The Guardian&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://violettabellocchio.tumblr.com/post/47787000576</link><guid>http://violettabellocchio.tumblr.com/post/47787000576</guid><pubDate>Fri, 12 Apr 2013 18:08:23 +0200</pubDate><category>Jill Filipovic</category><category>The Guardian</category><category>scandal</category><category>Huma Abedin</category><category>Anthony Weiner</category><category>gender</category><category>sex</category><category>marriage</category></item><item><title>Se prendete il numero di IL Magazine uscito oggi, ci trovate una...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/15f7257939ed78be1361a323b218c3e4/tumblr_ml5eux7BAi1qz6ghqo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Se prendete il numero di &lt;em&gt;IL Magazine&lt;/em&gt; uscito oggi, ci trovate una cosa mia sulle ultime ricerche in tema “le donne sul luogo di lavoro SI ODIANO TUTTE QUANTE ODDIO” e su come queste ricerche siano inesorabilmente colorate, in senso morale e narrativo, da trent’anni di film libri e telefilm di merda. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Rehtaeh Parsons hanged herself in her bathroom four days before that, because Rehtaeah Parsons was gang-raped by four boys a year ago.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They took pictures.&lt;/p&gt;
