This woman's work...

A bitch is annoyed. Since my ass strives to keep it very real at all times...

The Current Rules for Comments on a Bitch’s Blog
A bitch adores praise and encourages a lively debate. However, comments should relate to the topic of the post…or your ass will be corrected and a bitch don’t play. Kissing my ass then pimping your blog will not fly here...move on now...SCOOT!

Comments should not threaten anyone with hangings and such. This bitch is sensitive to references about the rope…violate and expect to be corrected by the sanctified delete option my ass has control of.

A bitch shall delete a comment if it reads like an advertisement. You will notice that some comments direct a bitch to another blog…that’s cool with me. But a bitch doesn’t need to buy any fans or auto parts or any such shit. This bitch is broke. Nuff said.

Moving on swiftly…

An Update on a Bitch’s Brother’s Job Situation
Thanks again for all the advice and information. A bitch has compiled a list of resources based on many of your comments. My ass is much more confident that my beloved brother shall find the ultimate autistic job placement shortly! Until then, Bill will be enjoying community activities. My ass will let y’all know as soon as Bill has a permanent placement…and a bitch will expect tons of blogger support for that business!

Anyhoo…

My ass is tired. This has been one long motherfucking week!

Let’s just jump right in, shall we?

Babies having babies...
As many of you know, this pro-choice bitch volunteers at several local women’s shelters. Many of the women are teen moms who have been thrown out of the house because their mother would loose her housing qualification if she had what the state defines as another family living in her home. Some have fled abuse or molestation. At one shelter, there are 10 moms and a waiting list of 200.

A bitch is often tempted to stay at home and watch American Justice on A&E. My ass is frustrated with all the babies having babies. But, as any community activist knows, once you jump into the fucking mud you have no delusions about whether it’s shallow or deep. Babies are having babies. Some are having them willfully, despite access to protection and sex education. Others are having them because that’s what girls do in their neighborhood at 14. Some have been raped and some don’t have any idea why they are having babies.

My ass is mad as hell about this shit. A bitch is pissed off that anyone would bring a child into the world without plans and hopes and love. A bitch is fucking pissed that so many of these young women have been molested and raped and have never been counseled. A bitch is mad as hell that bullshit religious protestors gather outside of Planned Parenthood instead of volunteering to teach a young mom how to balance a check book. And my ass is livid that churches in our community can spend Sunday after Sunday railing against gays and lesbians while not spending a second on family and parental responsibility.

This bitch volunteers every fucking week at shelters. Some of these moms are full of shit, don’t give a shit and don’t want my help. Some of them are so hurt by years of abuse that they aren’t ready to hear what a bitch has to say. And some of these moms blow a bitch away with their courage, tear at the ice covering my cold dark heart and inspire me.

When my ass hears about a “culture of life” this bitch actually gets excited. Maybe now there will be enough volunteers to read to each child at the shelter! Maybe now there will be enough pens and paper for the moms to take notes on basic budgeting! Maybe now we can support a full time rape counselor and sex education programs!

Yeah right…

It’s easy to blame "fucking" for the baby problem in the ‘hood. It’s easy to sit at the kitchen table and rant about condoms and the pill and freedom of choice. The hard part is getting off your ass and getting involved in some of these lives.

We can prevent unwanted pregnancy through education and access to birth control. There are options if you have unprotected sex and don’t want to get pregnant and there are options if you are pregnant and do not want to have a baby. The way my ass sees it, if the religious right wants to reduce abortions that is one goal and if they want to promote a culture of life that’s another…unless they value waltzing around the Planned Parenthood building on a random Tuesday more than supporting a young homeless mother.

Wanna take bets on who will be volunteering at the shelter next week?
