New Yorker - By Amy Davidson - Mar. 04 (Opinion) - Hint: it's got something to do with money. On Friday, President Obama called a law student at Georgetown to tell her not to take it to heart that Rush Limbaugh had called her a prostitute. “What was really personal for me was that he said to tell my parents that they should be proud,” the student, Sandra Fluke, who, needless to say, is not a prostitute, told Andrea Mitchell, of MSNBC.

Fri, 30 Jul 2010 00:00:00 -0700

Baltimore Examiner - Jul. 30 (Opinion) - The youth movement Rebelution has published the results of an in-house survey that is meant to be a 128 question guide for Christian women on how to best live and dress in a godly fashion.

New York Times - By Lisa Belkin - Nov. 12 (Opinion) - Are the parenting styles of these couples and the psychological development of their children different from families led by heterosexual couples? There is an increasing body of data about this, too, compiled and analyzed in a new book by Abbie Goldberg, an assistant professor of psychology at Clark University in Worcester, Mass.
