There is a book out on the shelves for this Christmas giving....
Who ever buys this book, should be arrested for child abuse!








Review

"Feminist Baby is for girls, boys, moms and dads. If you want your little person to grow up to a be a full and equal person, Feminist Baby is for you."―Rose McGowan, Activist/Director/Artist

"Feminist Baby is unexpectedly charming and warm. Pictures, here, really are worth a thousand words as Loryn Brantz does the important work of making feminism accessible with a keen understanding of what kids need to know about feminism in their young lives. Even as an adult, I found myself utterly delighted from one page to the next. Feminist Baby is not just for babies. It's for all of us. (But mostly, it's for babies.)"―Roxane Gay, New York Times best-selling author of Bad Feminist

"Not that you should have a baby for the sole purposes of reading a book to him or her, but if I were to do that it would be because of Feminist Baby. It's cute, inspiring, and a reminder that before society places boundaries on what girls are supposed to do and be like, girls can be anything, including empowered."―Phoebe Robinson, New York Times best-selling author of You Can't Touch My Hair

"With a palette as brash as her heroine, Brantz pictures this boundary-free little one as a big-eyed, roly-poly dumpling, usually not wearing any more than a diaper and a hair bow. It's just the thing to encourage kids to be loud, proud, and uncowed."―Publishers Weekly

"Feminist Baby makes me want to get pregnant again immediately just so I have one more kid to share this wonderful book with. No child's bookshelf is complete without it."―Jessica Valenti, Guardian columnist & New York Times best-selling feminist author

So you no longer believe in free speech or only when it pertains to your beliefs?

I wonder if we can do a parody of that book?

And here in the Great White North, we'll just wait to get that book on Boxing Day, the book stores might offer some discount and other rebates and for those interested you can buy it at a better price or wait until someone decide to sell an used copy on Ebay.

Hey bentbow, what's the deal you now think free speech should be reserved for just you and your mates? or is it just women you hate? My guess is you hate everyone who speaks different, thinks different, looks different and so on.
Why?

Well i have seen your posts here over the last year or so and frankly you really seem to hate almost everyone. Is there any group you like and support outside of Fat donald? i mean you can't really be against everyone and everything, surely you like something or someone outside your immediate circle..

We could do a parody of the people that are outraged and scandalized about the book. I think that would be more fun.

I would have to actually see the contents of the book before I could form an opinion.
