…versus real feminism.
Also, fuzzy wording. As Glenn notes: “…she’s a Harvard-trained lawyer, but says she can’t express herself with precision. Is this what feminism looks like?”
Words mean whatever they say they mean.

Jeff Foust has a review of the book (in the context of last week’s release of the 2013 ASAP report, which I’ve been meaning to comment on), over at The Space Review.

And of course the server at The Space Review would go down the day that he reviews my book. I must have crashed it with my link. 😉
How the left stole the word “liberal” a century ago. We need to take it back. I refuse to call them that.
A good survey at The Economist on the coming tsunami on unskilled labor, for which no government is prepared. They’re right that the most important thing is to reform K through post-grad education, root and branch, but there are a lot of entrenched interests that will continue to fight that.
Why it’s becoming drenched in it.
Some thoughts on Jonathan Haidt’s work.
Note all the umbrage in comments from “liberals” (they’re not really — they’re leftists). But I’ve never seen them address the issue of why conservatives and libertarians are so much better at predicting a “liberal” viewpoint than the other way around.

Bad link. Fixed now.

So much so that they’re showing sunrises on outdoor big screens.
…and neither is public schooling:
…unlike those who wish to suppress homeschooling, homeschool parents are rarely if ever heard demanding that the government pass a law demanding that every other family in the country do things the way they do. Unlike our German friends, homeschool parents do not wish to seize custody of other people’s children simply because they prefer a different model of education. The irony here is that more than a few of our public schools are so dangerous and dysfunctional that sending one’s children there really ought to be considered an act of neglect, if not for the fact that those poor parents have practically no choice in the matter.
It’s not about education. It’s about control.
