Mszue, do you object to Adam using "bitch, " too? I don't particularly like it and would rarely, if ever, use it as a form of endearment...if I used it, it would be an insult... But it feels marginally less onerous than 'cunt'. A part of me can sympathize with Eve Ensler's attempt to make 'us' use the word in the same way that ni##er and fa##ot have been reclaimed...she entreats everyone attending the Vagina Monologues to shout it out over and over... But I am not quite there yet. What can i say....I am a product of my times...ardent 2nd wave feminist and communication scholar. It is my shtick ... but don't want to get pedantic here... I just hate to see the stonings and banishments that occur here regularly... I think we really all need to be a little more tolerant here if we want to deserve the kudo's we regularly give the community for being so caring and kind. |

I was wondering if any of you here have recorded the whole diva show yesterday as much as I have seen the singing adam did..I also want to see the part adam was talking and hosting the show..
I miss watching the diva yesterday as it was morning in malaysia at that time and I had to do my usual errands and chores..
I would appreciate it very much if someone could burn it in a cd or something and I am willing to buy and pay for it..
thank you..

Totally off topic here- I was just over at VH1 rewatching some parts of the Divas show and I noticed that a lot of the segments had around 9 to 12 thousand views, but Miley Cyrus's segment had 87,000+  She must have a big fan base. Who knew? Well, I guess a lot of people knew. I just never paid her any attention. peace&love The crotch grab got a lot of media attention--that was not brought to Atop. |

We are a diverse ,proud group here and we have different perspectives.. Being tolerant is the right way to go,we just learn so much more when we're not judgemental. |

Words do hurt but for some reason coming from Adam it doesn't bother me. I feel I know him and he's just good to the core. Now, if someone else said that to me, I would be offended. I'd probably punch them in the mouth!!  |
