RMR: Teen Suicide
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wh1jNAZHKIw&feature=youtu.be Every year in this country, 300 kids take their own lives. It is a mind boggling number. And this past week, one of those kids was Jamie Hubley. He was 15. He was depressed. And he happened to be gay. And because this 2011, we just don’t read about a kid like Jamie, we can google him.

LGBTQ politics in Canada
My frustration of today lies with the media today in fact. The reason this comes to the boiling point that it makes it to my blog today is the fact that several articles have come out today & plenty of social media attention to the Conservatives making a video for youth suffering suicidal thoughts or temptations due to their sexual orientation.

Male Role In Feminism
Women might be surprised that I declare myself a feminist.
