Sex is one of those things that has to be handled very artfully; Like religion and politics, it has deeper meaning to some than to others. For me, sex in a book is something that should be used to progress the story. It should have meaning. If it doesn't move the story along or at least help develop...

Seriously. Just because fantasy novels can run a half million words, that doesn't mean people always want that. It all depends on how those words are utilized. A prime example is The Song of Ice and Fire. Most people don't mind the first 3 books being over 1000 pages as the story is engaging and th...

Niall Teasdale's continuation of his Ultrahuman series is out: Shadows. This one focuses more on Andrea/Twilight and less on Penny/Cygnus.

She would have done it if she had no other recourse. She would probably have them dump themselves in an active volcano as soon as she did it just to wipe the slate clean with those guys and allow them to be reborn. I hope to see her using Eve at some point to help her toughen up. She can't trust the...

I just reread everything in the Keeley continuity from Keeley to Other Place to Eve (for the 3rd time). As I was reading through Eve again, I started to pay more attention to the scenes were she's saying things but not really sure why she's saying them -- like suggesting Nikki go with her to Russia ...

That's just it though, any many cases you CAN'T simply stop supporting them. If you're married and get divorced you face court-ordered alimony.

In the end, feminism is a toothless lion. The roar is mighty, but the lack of teeth means that they just end up making everyone all damp and slightly bruised. Based on what? Judging from what they've been able to accomplish in the areas of education, the legislative and judicial branches, the media...

I just don't think that feminists are actually that petty. Except of course, if you're famous and get them press. Except that many are that petty. There are feminists (a minority) that think men should get a licensed to breed or be sterilized. There are some that think the male population should be...

Any movie's you would recommend to help me understand even more? Unfortunately, the topics we're discussing are completely ignored by the media. To even mention the subject is to invite massive ridicule and cries of sexism. If you want to hear a smart lady talk about the subject, you can look for s...

Ronald, Vasectomies aren't 100% assured. They're close, but not a fail safe. The are reversible though. My point was that women have an escape route at every step of the process, from blocking pregnancy to having others pay for the child after it's born. Men don't have that luxury, the best we can h...
