    Oh, that PETA, always thinking.

    Knowing that soybeans are genetically modified and often have to travel vast distances before ending up in milk cartons in my supermarket, I sometimes wonder whether it would be better for the environment to buy local organic cow’s milk.

  • Once Upon a Time, Boobies Weren't Bad

    Apparently when Facebook banned photos of breastfeeding women , they were just following a grand old tradition. Utne reports that late medieval and Renaissance art often showed the Virgin Mary nursing the baby Jesus . Perhaps as long as nipple wasn't visible, it was okay. Oh, and the breast was supposed...
