    Harrison Butker delivered a commencement speech recently, as I’m sure you’ve all heard, and I finally listened to it. Did you? I had heard him called a misogynist, a racist, a white supremacist, and more. People have been dragging this man’s name through the mud, and until today, I’d only heard the same little snippet…

  • Gold Star

    Many years ago I remember being blissfully happy as a newlywed. Still very much in the honeymoon phase, planning our future together. We were talking about our future children, their names, and future homes. One minute I’m daydreaming about our future, and the next minute two military officers are knocking on my door. My husband…

  • Mother’s Day

    Happy Mother’s Day to all of the moms out there, but most especially to mine. My mother had her hands full with me. I took her for granted, and said some truly awful things to her, that she never deserved. Never did she reciprocate the venomous words I yelled, never did she show me anything…

  • Dr. Diagnosis Part 2

    These past few years there have been quite a few ‘it’ diseases and disorders to diagnose. ADD, ADHD, DID, PTSD, anxiety, and gender dysphoria are ‘in’ things to have. There are people who genuinely have these, and are angry that their lives are being made a mockery of. There are far too many doctors out…

  • Dr. Diagnosis

    Decades ago, there was a major uptick in people being diagnosed with fibromyalgia. It seemed that everyone had it, myself included. It wasn’t until more recently that I began to think about how I came to be diagnosed, and how it was treated in that first year. I went to a rheumatologist with widespread pain…

  • Truth Part 8

    There are Christians backing up Dylan Mulvaney, Lia Thomas, and the like, and it’s maddening. They are basically saying that either God made a mistake or that God decided that it was some children’s journey to be trans. How horrific. And, it’s another lie. God doesn’t make mistakes. He takes great care in making us…

  • Truth Part 7

    When is enough enough for you? When men get women’s awards? That’s already happening. When men are on the cover of our magazines? That’s happening, too. How about when they rape women in women’s prisons? Already happening. Or, maybe when women are getting severely hurt in women’s sports by men? Also already occurring. These men…

  • Truth Part 6

    The males going around parading as women have an audience, they have captivated so many women. You watch their videos, and maybe even donate money. You support them playing in women’s sports, and being in women’s bathrooms. You support their preferred pronouns. You support everything they do, and gleefully clap your hands for them, and…

  • Truth Part 5

    Blackface is unacceptable, right? It is viewed as racist, and widely condemned. What do you think about Mickey Rooney in his ‘Chinese face’? You probably thought that was racist, and as bad as blackface. And yet, you have no issue with womanface. Being a woman used to be this pretty amazing thing. We were capable…

  • Truth Part 4

    One of the things that I will never have to worry about is getting testicular cancer, or penile cancer. That’s because I am a female, and have XX chromosomes. Males will never have to worry about cervical cancer, uterine cancer, ovarian cancer. They will never have to worry about carrying a child in their womb,…
