Anthony Lane Reviews Sex and the City

and now there are charges of misogyny. Hmmm

GMA Nalintikan

Can't they see the sign? When PGMA was addressing her allied bishops and priests at Baguio Cathedral, a particularly loud thunderclap hit the vicinity. It was so strong where I was at SM, that the gang of boys beside my table shrieked. I twittered about jokingly that the media should prepare for lightning as PGMA was set to talk. And she did and it did thundered. I don't know if the brownout was caused by the lightning but I wouldn't be surprised. Of course, she thanked the bishops for their support to her regime aka kleptocracy. And of course, she told them about her anti-poverty program which of course did not include her stepping out of office and killing the Gonzales twins and the Abalosers. And since it is the opening of the poverty summit, she should have just worn a Tshirt with THE CAUSE written on it. She looked so holy and the bishops just loved it. But God showed her disgust by throwing lightning at the Cathedral. The media will not include that phenomological aspect in their writing, of course. They will talk about her program like it's their first time to hear it.

Not Really Victims of Globalization

A review of the Sex at the Margins: Migration, Labour Markets and the Rescue Industry by Laura María Agustín Zed Books, 224pp, £16.99, said:
Most migrant women, including those who end up in the sex industry, have made a clear decision to leave home and take their chances overseas. They are not "passive victims" who must be "saved" by anti-trafficking campaigners and returned to their country of origin. Rather, frequently, they are headstrong and ambitious women who migrate in order to escape "small-town prejudices, dead-end jobs, dangerous streets and suffocating families". Shocking as it might seem to the feminist social workers, caring police people and campaigning journalists who make up what Agustín refers to as the "rescue industry", she has discovered that some poor migrant women "like the idea of being found beautiful or exotic abroad, exciting desire in others".
Let the debates begin.
