Fun with Feminist Flickr (my cute guy friend edition)
A big thanks to my boy Ben (he's single, gals!) and all the other folks who came to Union Square yesterday to show their support for women's reproductive rights. More pics from the rally here.

Thanks a million times over to all of you who did turn out. If I were closer to Union Square than Western Michigan, I would have turned up too . . .
You know, I'm happily married and all, but your friend Ben is kind of ridiculously cute.
When I and a bunch of classmates went to the March for Women's Lives (in April of 2004) one of the guys in our group carried a sign that said "Sexy Men For Choice." He got a lot of people wanting to take pictures with him...good times. :)
Reminds me of those "Just say NO to sex with pro-lifers" and "I [heart] pro-choice boys" slogans I've seen.
I was there, too! Too bad I didn't recognize you :) (Nor did I have a camera - boo!)
An adorable feminist guy friend wore a sign that said THIS IS WHAT A FEMINIST LOOKS LIKE and got a million hugs and kisses that day.
Yeah, he's hot. Totally. And I get tired of talking to men who are "pro-life," so that makes him hotter.
I'm so sad I missed the protest--I didn't hear about it in enough time to go.
Your friend's yummy & he's clearly smart. Definitely a big improvement over the mulleted inbreds that I usually see holding pics of dead fetuses & quoting Bible verses.
i think i'm in love...
Equally, what cities self-consciously try to develop their cultural capital, as distinct from building cultural facilities? Culture determines how we shape, create and make our societies. So the scope, possibilities, style and tenor of social and economic development is largely culturally determined. If our city culture is more closed-minded, strongly hierarchical and focuses on tradition, it can make adjusting to major transformation more difficult.
It might limit communicating across different groups. It might hold back international trade or tourism because obstacles will be created to the free flow of exchange and ideas. It might deter creating mixed partnerships, which are now recognized as a major way forward for communities to solve problems. It might stifle developing a vibrant, empowered small business sector. By contrast, if our traditions value tolerance and openness, those adjustments to the new world may be easier. Places that share ideas and have the capacity to absorb bring differences together more effectively.
