"I was worried about vaginas. I was worried about what we think of vaginas, and even more worried about what we don't think about them. So I decided to talk to women about their vaginas, to do vagina interviews, which became vagina monologues. I talked with hundreds of women. I talked to old women, young women, married women, single women, lesbians, college professors, actors, corporate professionals, sex workers, African women, Hispanic women, Asian women, Native American women, Caucasian women, Jewish women. At first, women were reluctant to talk.But once they got going, you couldn't stop them."

choice read on women:Is it a human right to prostitute?
sex sales talk; we live, it has been said, in a culture of pornography. With the worldwide explosion in recent decades of industries based on the production, sale and consumption of sex primarily personified in women's bodies, there is an even more pressing need to understand the commodification of sex in the range and diversity of forms that pornography, "sexual entertainment" and prostitution are taking, and for feminists to analyze the significance of and impact of these developments on women's status. .READ MORE FROM CATW.org

Splitting E-Mail Data
E-mail can be intercepted and read as it passes from you to your
intended recipient because e-mail gets sent along whatever
electronic pathway happens to be available at the moment.
Be careful if you have to send confidential information, such as
your credit card number. Experts recommend sending half the
credit card number in one message, half in another, and the
expiration date in a third. The odds that one person can
intercept all three messages, each going by a different random
route, are astronomically low. Your Internet service provider and
the intended recipient of your e-mail are the only two sources
who can see all three e-mails.
