thinking difference: Are we becoming more conservative?
http://thinkingdifference.blogspot.com/2010/05/are-we-becoming-more-conservative.html
Tuesday, May 4, 2010. Are we becoming more conservative? It's nice that we can write blogs and tell everyone who cares to read what we stand for. Or analyze the latest trends, crazes and ideas. It's nice that we can express ourselves and find other people who care to comment. Or not. But in the end, does it really matter? I mean I'm most likely to read the bits and pieces that already fit my values and worldviews. What I read adds to what I already think, but it doesn't change it. Must be really disappoi...

thinking difference: March 2010
http://thinkingdifference.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 10, 2010. What's wrong with day care? I was once told that you should keep your child at home rather than send her to day care. I do not fully understand the day care system, but I wonder why some people see day care as such a bad thing for their kids. But beyond the gender discourse, I think this fear of day care also has a lot to do with the day care/ kindergarten system in North America. As said, a system I still don't fully understand: what's the difference between them? I grew up in...

thinking difference: October 2009
http://thinkingdifference.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 2, 2009. DO NOT remove Ganesh. Although I'm finding less and less time to write here, the other today I thought of writing something on this rather. Apparently, a group of 'concerned Christians' wants a statue of the Hindu god Ganesh removed from the Calgary zoo on grounds that the 'good Christians' are finding it offensive. Oppenheim sculpture removed from Vancouver. What twisted interpretation of Christian doctrine makes them unable to move out of the dark ages? And, most importantly, w...

Wednesday, June 2, 2010. Letter to my radio station: Good bye, au revoir, arrivederci. Dear radio station,. I am leaving you. I know you don't really care, because you probably have hundreds and thousands of fans. But I'm sick and tired of your constant repetitions and redundancies. How about you give me some 'diversity'? It's not that I don't like Beyonce. I'm dreaming, I know. Who on earth wants to hear. Is playing on American Idol? And why would you ever trade the daring. My hump, my hump, my hump.

thinking difference: August 2009
http://thinkingdifference.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 22, 2009. Reproduction, sex, pleasure: defining a woman. In time, I came to realize that I may be part of the problem too: why did I take it as invasive? What was the root of my horror, disgust and fear with gynecological checkups, pregnancy, abortion? Beyond the sheer fear of pain, a disempowering vision of women's sexuality was lurking behind my understanding of 'being a woman'. After all, it's still called the 'reproductive apparatus' - why not the sexual apparatus? And then, maybe th...
