Janet Fraser is perhaps Australia’s most ferocious advocate of home births. Her spiel mixes militant feminism and a green age’s worship of Earth Mother: “In a woman-hating society obsessed with the control and regulation of women’s bodies, choosing to birth at home makes a crucial statement of withdrawal from patriarchy.” Medical intervention to help the […]

I was somewhat shocked to see NZCPR promote Ayn Rand’s books. Maybe because it is right wing. But… Have you read her writings? Do you support her and why? For a period of time in January, “Atlas” outsold President Barack Obama’s “The Audacity of Hope” and landed squarely in the top 30 books on Amazon.com. […]

Western governments have expressed abhorrence at Afghanistan’s new laws that require a wife to fulfil her husband’s sexual desires and to wear makeup for him if he requests it.  Feminists and others have described the law as abhorrent and as “legalizing rape within marriage”.
