Good blog for feminists of Catholic persuasion

Or even those of us who aren't much persuaded anymore:

http://talibanrising.blogspot.com

Behold, a Catholic conservative feminist who says that "It's easier to tell someone to 'Put on a skirt!' than 'Put on Christ'." She looks at disturbing trends such as the "modesty movement" and the way it starts to become an "inner burqa". She likes Sarah Palin but I'm willing to forgive her that, especially even though Mooseburger Mama is a dunce full of animal cunning, she *is* a governor with what Camille Paglia describes as the physical strength of an Amazon warrior.

I need to sic her on lily-maiden and Colleen Hammond.

Go over and give her some love.

I don't agree with her politics, but her blog's interesting. Might have to follow it a bit.

Ugh... I didn't read enough to discover her politics, though I should have gotten a clue as [livejournal.com profile] tepintzin mentioned the blogger likes Sarah Palin in her post. However, I did like that particular post. I'll have to give the blog a second look later.

[livejournal.com profile] paedraggaidin sent me to the blog you just mentioned. Well, he said you you posted about it in your LJ so I had to come here and tell you thanks for the heads up. It looks like a cool blog.

Ugh, those modesty blogs drive me nuts. Most everything on the Catholic blogosphere is driving me nuts these days. I'm glad there are some sane people around. ;-)

I have both friendlisted you and written a modesty-movement post just for you!

Oh goodie, I feel special. I've told [livejournal.com profile] paedraggaidinthat I've been wanting to friend you for ages. Going to read your post now. :-)
