Guerrilla Mama Medicine writeson Sympathy and Suffering.
“So far as we feel sympathy,” Sontag writes, “we feel we are not accomplices to what caused the suffering. Our sympathy proclaims our innocence as well as our impotence. To that extent, it can be (for all our good intentions) an impertinent–if not an inappropriate–response. To set aside the sympathy we extend to others beset by war and murderous politics for a consideration of how our privileges are located on the same map as their suffering, and may - in ways that we prefer not to imagine–be linked to their suffering, as the wealth of some may imply the destitution of others, is a task for which the painful, stirring images supply only the initial spark.”

Vatican Official Blames Radical Feminism For The Decline Of Manhood from Womanist Musings.
Doesn't it amuse you when people like folks from the Vatican try and get all technical and say it's "radical" feminists to blame?

I guess it's not quite as amusing at those who blame simply "feminism" for everything though. :P
