Sexism
Women, Get Back into those Constraints!!!
Women, girls, ladies, transgenders, your life is about to change. The fashionistas amongst you are going to really suffer for the next decade. For those of you old enough who were fashionable in the 1950’s and 1960’s this will be a historical return to a very unhappy and uncomfortable time. For those of you young…
Read MoreOne more Trump Answer to your blog!
I know you don’t like to print lots of blogs about the same thing. I am surprised you put as many blogs about “The Don” as you have. (I love that name.) The media calls him “The Donald”. Wonder if they have disguised the same thing you are highlighting? Once more about “The Don” –…
Read MoreThe ‘Sharing’ Community????
The first thing we note in that name – which has become attached to several kinds of businesses – is the fact that it is an extreme misnomer. There is nothing “sharing” about that group of businesses. Unless you call the lower to middle classes sharing their small assets and ideas in ways to make…
Read MoreDogs = Emotional Slavery
copyright 2015 Bettina Network, inc. We are and have been for hundreds of years a society/world of slaves. Either you are a slave or a slave master. Many have tried to break free, but in some part or parts of life, that historical connection gets us and changes us from a free people to a people…
Read MoreSexism 101 – Father Figure Problems
copyright 2015 Bettina Network, inc. One guest brought a problem to the breakfast table. She was late arriving and most people were ready to leave. Her agitated state made all of us stay and the resulting conversation, we felt, belonged on your blog. We deal with sexism in all ways and places. Mostly, we talk…
Read MoreThanks for the Sandra Bland blog
It is amazing how little there is about Sandra Bland in the major media outlets. What is there that I have heard talks about her committing suicide and whatever else negative could be found. I am sending this list, which I got from the FMF (Feminist Movement Foundation) newsletter. I think Sandra Bland needs to…
Read MoreSandra Bland – Strange Fruit
Once upon a time, the “Strange Fruit, hanging from the trees” used to be from trees with green leaves, a trunk and branches growing up from the ground splattered with red. Today, the “Strange Fruit, hanging from the trees” is hanging from man-made trees with blue reflected all around. But look! Isn’t that the old…
Read MoreTrump, Thurmond, Duke
Thank you for the blog on Donald Trump. I am amazed at how edited the press reporting is on this man and his political machinations. Too many people are calling this a “Republican” phenomenon. I want to remind them that Strom Thurmond, in whose shoes Trump is walking politically and otherwise, was a Democrat –…
Read MoreDonald Trump? How to ruin a great breakfast!
A brief breakfast conversation, which most of us killed almost immediately, but not before several points were made: 1) While his first wife was working hard to help develop the Trump empire, the man was womanizing! And who knows what kind of sexual activity happened after and through the rest of his life and marriages,…
Read MorePresident Obama’s Eulogy of Rev. Pinckney
We have been asked by many of our readers for the URL address of where they could find President Obama’s eulogy. Apparently, you folks didn’t think it was going to be great so you were doing other things while this incredible statement was being made. At the end, President Obama was referred to as “the…
