Spot the Difference!
I was so completely moved by the following two pictures, originally posted by Jill as Feministe, that I just had to share.
These two pictures are the signings of two of the most important bill signings for women’s rights in the past few years.
The Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003
The Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009
These pictures really speak for themselves. It is astounding what can happen in six years, especially when it comes to women’s rights. Having a pro-woman administration really does wonders.

Sex-Positivity
I'm passionate about sex-positivity and believe every sexual being should have the freedom to explore their sexuality safely and without condemnation. I even lost my ad network after my refusal to censor myself after reviewing feminist porn.So if you're in the market for sex toys, porn, books, etc. take a look at the retailers below, all of which are feminist-friendly.
Out Campaign
The OUT Campaign allows individuals to let others know they are not alone. It can also be a nice way of opening a conversation and help to demolish the negative stereotypes of atheists. Let the world know that we are not about to go away and that we are not going to allow those that would condemn us to push us into the shadows.
i knew exactly what two photos you were going to post before they even loaded. gives me chills and i may have just cried a little.
Thanks for this on a Saturday morning.
It makes me feel as though things in women's interests are starting to gain a bit of momentum again.
It's great to see it presented in such stark contrast.
Wow!
I am extremely hopeful that things are going to start to get a lot better for women around here.
Yes its a sign for things to come. I hope President Obama can help with womens rights

That first image is pretty striking. That a bill which affected so many woman was signed with not even one woman watching by itself seems to carry a message. Thankfully, as you pointed out, things have improved significantly.
He's doing all of the right things. He's going to be one of the most influential presidents in history.
i've seen a very similar post elsewhere on the net a few days back, and i couldn't help but smirk. it was pretty funny, i have to admit.
Its funny to see Obama having all that girls around him. LOL!
