Because all of Africa is the Kalahari and everyone there lives in mudhuts and play bongos all day, am I right?!

Sadly, because of that imagery being used for so many years, that's probably all that the average westerner associates with Africa. There's so much more to the continent and its people, but you'd almost never see it in media.

Don't forget the most popular map projection makes Africa, the 2nd largest continent look smaller than the USA

Trigger warning: italian. http://nonleggerlo.blogspot.fr/2014/06/cose-che-puoi-trovare-sulla-pagina.html This a blog article about a facebook post by a senator in Italy. He claims that a recent triple murder (a guy killed his wife and two kids to be with his lover) is a false flag, esoteric(?) ritual murder setup to distract from a recent corruption scandal in Venice that saw our government involved. The proof for you sheeple is obvious: the maiden's name of the victim is the anagram of the entity involved in the scandal, the Mose in Venice; and the name of the town where it happened is the same surname of a director, Visconti, who directed a movie called "Death in Venice". That's it. The murderer actually confessed and asked for the maximum sentence for himself, but no, he's obviously being brainwashed by the government to be the fall guy. So next time you complain about a false flag operation conspiracy nut in the US, think about us poor italians, where we elect them as members of parliament. canepazzo has a new favorite as of 07:30 on Jun 17, 2014 |

The fact that they make so little is depressing, but the fact that they got given what is, to someone in that position, such a significant gift that the company could have easily not done is pretty cool, actually. Most companies that pay that little are pretty aggressive about treating their employees badly.

Not the one you're thinking of, but http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilona_Staller quote:Ilona Staller (born 26 November 1951), widely known by her stage name, Cicciolina, is a Hungarian-born Italian porn star, politician, and singer. Staller continued to make hardcore pornographic films while a member of parliament. She is famous for exposing her breasts in parliament. She also offered to gently caress Gaddafi during the Libyan civil war to get him to calm down. Italian politics are amazing.

The fact that she feels valued as a person, is able to judge herself by her own standards and feels equal to men are all reasons she should be thanking and encouraging feminism. So close to not being an MRA darling, yet so far...

I am capable of taking responsibility for myself and may actions. *Refused job for been pregnant* Is feminism really about blaming men? Maybe for some, but isn't the idea to be treated as equally?

Feminists that say a woman CAN'T be a homemaker and be supported by her husband even though it's her choice, is just as bad as a husband saying she CAN'T have a job and has to stay in the kitchen.

I can't even imagine what kind of narrow worldview someone would need to earnestly believe men's rights have ever been threatened, let alone feel men's rights need more representation and privileges.

My poor cousin is stuck in this Seacret pyramid marketing scam. She's been posting periodically (even going to some trip in the US) and it seems like some hive mind bullshit. OUR PRODUCTS SAVE YOU! WORSHIP THE LEADER OF SEACRET! I truly think she believes she'll be come rich selling their products.
