Hot topics: medical wonder, modern feminist & celeb bodies

Wheeeew nelly! I found some hot topics for discussion today! With these links, there's a little something to get everyone's engines revved up. Let's give the comment section a good workout today, folks.

Medical wonder?
The British Daily Mail posted this little gem that I could not pass up sharing- I'm thrilled my baby survived abortion! Short but quiet interesting story. Your two cents?

Best Fem 2008? Blogger Jezebel recently picked her choice for best modern day feminist. I'll give you some clues; she's an activist, has been a staple on television for almost 20 years and rocks the short blond hair better than Ellen DeGeneres. Here's her choice. Not quite mine, but what do you think? Whose your pick?

Nit picking celeb bods?
This one's an oldie but a goodie. Tyra Banks may have put on a little weight since her supermodeling (ahem airbrushing) days. Last January, she used her television show to address some harsh words and an unflattering photo that popped up in tabloids. Are the bodies of celebrities our business? Check out my previous post on the subject & reader comments and for some more celebrity body shots, check here.

Who cleans?
The New York Times posted an interesting article in light of the legilization of gay marriage in California. Looking at the way homosexual couples vs. heterosexual couples split up tasks like chores around the home, the article brings forth some light to how we interact in relationships. What do you think?
