Let’s play “Spot the Irony” today. I’ll put up three stories in the news and you can guess at the irony….
First, in what is entirely too common, we have a woman in a military/police occupation being sexually harassed. Why should she or the others who complained have to resign their positions? What about the mounties who harassed her? Meanwhile, there are stories over the net of gang rape and assaults against women**…the police, who are doing their own share of harassing are supposed to investigate these incidents in a fair and just way??
Secondly, women who are breastfeeding their infants are asked to use the bathroom to nurse their child.
Meanwhile….a Victoria’s Secret store opens in B.C.
See…nourishing your child is something to be ashamed of while sexy lingerie that promotes boobies are perfectly fine….just as long as you don’t pop one out.
Oh…the irony…

**I am in awe of her courage–as one commenter put it: a warrior woman! Not only that, but the two bears showing up and not harming her also leaves me in awe.
