quote [ Like many 13-year-olds, Brittany knew seventh grade was a living hell. But what she didn't know was that she was caught in the crossfire of a culture war being waged by local evangelicals... ]
There is no greater example of the hypocrisy and hatred displayed by the anti-gay movement than willfully ignoring the suicides of teens who were bullied, when it is all too clear that, absent the bullying aided, and abetted by the anti-gay activists, those teenagers would still be alive today.

Ladies and Gentlemen of SE: Inspired by the good Webbery, in this post I think that those of us who partake in photographic pastimes should post links to our galleries, if to do so is your desire, and thus foster communication, constructive discussion, and mutual admiration.
In other words, let's see your pictures—I'll open with my shots from Paris, and as I get time I'll put more photos up on Flickr; in extended, links. [art] [by taiga@6:48pmGMT] [+10 Good] [107 comments] |

quote [ The piece is a setting of the sexual harassment complaint lodged against Fox News pundit, Bill O’Reilly, by Andrea Mackris, in October 2004 and recorded at its world premiere in January 2007. It includes all memorable moments from the original complaint and more – paranoid rants, clumsy sexual innuendo, and the famous falafel fantasy. ]
It's an update to an old story: the opera was written about a year ago, but the video just appeared. Marked NSFW for fantastic boobs, loofah-on-pussy action.

quote [ All touching -- not only fighting or inappropriate touching -- is against the rules at Kilmer Middle School in Vienna. Hand-holding, handshakes and high-fives? Banned. The rule has been conveyed to students this way: "NO PHYSICAL CONTACT!!!!!" ]
Thumb is from the movie "Touch of Evil" by Orson Welles

quote [ "I'm glad I had it done," said the woman, who spoke to Reuters on condition of anonymity. "I wanted to reconstruct part of my life, to reconstruct myself so that I could feel better about myself." ]
In France, now, women who realize that losing their virginity to a pushy boyfriend at 15 will ruin their marriage plans can get that virginity back, and they don't even have to find the boy who took it.

quote [ ...and that's when I tried to buy the horse a prostitute! ]
Least I Could Do is a webcomic that, while not the dirtiest out there, is generally pretty funny and sometimes even insightful. There's no gratuitous nudity, no suicide prevention week jokes, and no tentacled monsters; there is, however, a guy whose mission in life is to sleep with as many girls as possible, and a different guy whose 'bad' conscience manifests itself as Darth Vader.
[humour] [by taiga@10:34amGMT] [+10 Good] [31 comments] A little something for everyone, I guess. |

quote [ Four young noblemen met one sunny spring day in 1730, or thereabouts, and being bored, impatient and given to the Dionysian antics and diversions of youth, decided to commission their artificers to make for them ingenious contraptions that would produce musical sounds amplified, as it were, by the application of the then-new technology of steam power... ]
A musical group with an odd sense of humor, and pretty decent "rocque and rolle".

quote [ Foam parties are events that beg for people to show up in clothes they don't care about, and at Shooters everyone has come prepared: The girls, dressed in miniskirts, whip off their shirts to reveal bikini tops....Thus attired, they fall into one another, spilling drinks. ]
Marked NSFW due to some of the language, on the off-chance that your boss doesn't like semi-graphic discussions of sex acts.
[by taiga@7:47amGMT] [+7 Informative] [16 comments] Also, be warned that, as of the time of posting, the Rolling Stone site is incredibly slow. |

quote [ A first grader was suspended for three days after school officials said he sexually harassed a girl in his class by allegedly putting two fingers inside the girl's waistband while she sat on the floor in front of him. ]
Apparently we're just a nation of sex-crazed bastards starting from birth.
I've been discussing this with some teacher friends... in extended. [by taiga@8:44amGMT] [+10 WTF] [107 comments] |

quote [ "God in his infinite freedom continuously creates a world that reflects that freedom at all levels of the evolutionary process to greater and greater complexity," he wrote. "He is not continually intervening, but rather allows, participates, loves." ]
A step, certainly, but it remains to be seen in what direction.
