Denise Noe’s note: The book reviewed here is oriented primarily toward girls and women so some readers are likely to criticize me for putting this review on Men’s News Daily. However, I do not believe that it is irrelevant because men have wives, girlfriends, mothers, sisters, daughters, and other female relatives as well as female [...]

Now comes news that George McGovern has called for Hillary Clinton to withdraw from the Democrat’s primary race. Pardon me for my raised eyebrow but how much of a fool would someone have to be to take campaign advice from the man who got slaughtered by Richard Nixon? Losing an election by a landslide really [...]

Back in the 1970s, there was a song I especially liked listening to when it played on an oldies station. At the time, I considered myself a feminist but knew this song would be anathema to most feminists. I couldn’t help liking it anyway and I still like it.

I began researching the case after being [...]

Much of the last chapter of Proverbs is dedicated to describing the characteristics of “a virtuous woman.” Verse 10 asks, “Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies.”
It is interesting to examine the qualities that such a woman is said to possess as well as the affects she is said [...]

Shortly after World War II, male bartenders tried to bar women from their profession. They saw bars as the poor man’s version of the gentleman’s club, a male refuge from the wider world. They were places women rarely went. There might be a jukebox crooning softly in the corner, but there was no dancing. Men [...]

Nothing is more fraudulent than calls for a “dialogue on race.”
Those who issue such calls are usually quick to cry “racism” at
any frank criticism. They are almost invariably seeking a
monologue on race, to which others are supposed to listen.
—Thomas Sowell
During Barack Obama’s tremendously overrated “speech on race”—delivered in Philadelphia on March 18th 2008—the media-gilded candidate [...]

The recent scandal involving the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (FLDS) has led to a media focus with many photographs and much film of FLDS woman in their Little House on the Prairie dresses and swept-up bun hairdos.
It seems to me that it should be pointed out that the larger society [...]
