Owen Strachan looks at women who fight and says “Femininity is a contested sphere nowadays, both literally and figuratively.”

I predict the porn in public thing will become more newsworthy once all the airlines start offering in-flight WiFi.
Oops. I should have read the article first. They talk about exactly that.
Where’s John Knox on that Great Scot list?
